Kinalty cursus is a Neolithic monumental earthwork located in Angus, Scotland. The site comprises a substantial linear enclosure, characteristic of cursus monuments, which were constructed during the Neolithic period, typically between 4000 and 3000 BCE. These monuments served ritual or ceremonial purposes, often associated with funerary practices or communal gatherings, though their precise function remains debated among archaeologists. The earthwork survives as an archaeological feature of significance for understanding Neolithic settlement patterns and monumental construction practices in eastern Scotland.
