Forsyth is an expert in the
Ogham script, and has provided readings for a number of
Ogham inscriptions, including the
Buckquoy spindle-whorl and the
Lunnasting stone.[2] Forsyth has reinterpreted a number of Pictish Ogham stone inscriptions that were previously thought to be written in an unknown pre-Indo-European language, and has argued that the Picts spoke a
Brythonic language.[3]
