Balhomie, cup-marked stone 95m N of, is a prehistoric cup-marked stone located in Perthshire, Scotland. Cup-marked stones are among the earliest forms of rock art in Britain, typically dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, though the precise chronology of individual examples remains uncertain. The stone bears cup marks—small, deliberately pecked circular depressions—which were created by repeated striking with a hard implement. Stones of this type are found widely across Scotland and northern Britain, and whilst their exact ritual or practical significance remains unknown, they are considered important evidence of early prehistoric activity and territorial expression in the landscape.
