Scope and Content Sarcophagus at St Andrews Cathedral, St Andrews, Fife This sarcophagus is in the museum at St Andrews Cathedral. It is the finest example of Pictish sculpture in Scotland. It consisted of four panels that slotted into corner-posts. It was possibly used as a shrine or reliquary. This is a view of one of the end-panels of the sarcophagus. It is a cross decorated with fine interlace. There is a central boss, and in-between the arms of the cross are two pairs of figures and two more bosses, with serpents around them.
