What's the Latin word for haggis?
A second-century Roman tombstone has been discovered near Carberry in Musselburgh, East Lothian, east of Edinburgh. (Is that the right way to specify a town? Here in the States we'd just give Town Name, State.)
Coverage in The Scotsman here and here; there's a small picture of the tombstone in the BBC report. Here's a website devoted to Romans in Scotland.
