“It’s unclear what all of the symbols mean,”

Let the power of suggestion decide! /s

Clearly they are design drawings of bath towel hangers or front door knockers.

Interesting commentary about the Picts. Yes, they halted Rome at what later became the Hadrian Wall, iirc.

Robert E. Howard, the guy who created Conan the Barbarian in 1930s pulp fiction, created some much more notable (but less marketable, I guess) characters, one of which was Bran Mak Morn, a king among 'the people of the heather'.

The Pictish symbols look similar to some crop circles.

The Picts seem to still be all around the British Isles, where today they paint their symbols in the fields of the farms and everyone calls them “crop circles”. LOL
