Mor Stein

Mor Stein er en neolitisk bautasten i den sydøstlige del af øen Shapinsay i Orkneyøerne, Skotland.^[1] Shapinsay er en af de to store indre øer i Orkneyøerne og ligger omtrent 3 km nord for hovedøen Mainland.^[2] Linton Bay ligger en smule nordøst for Mor Stein.

Mor Stein er en fritstående bautasten på cirka 3,2 m i højden, uslebet og uden udsmykning, og den står på en mark noget adskilt fra andre menneskeskabte strukturer på øen.^[3] Nogle få mil mod nord ligger Burroughston Broch, hvis jordvold stadig er intakt, så besøgende kan se ned i brochen ovenfra.^[4]
