Skuta Noost is a Bronze Age cist cemetery located in Shetland, Scotland. The site comprises at least two stone burial cists positioned approximately 55 metres west and 95 metres northwest of the main location, typical of funerary monuments from the Bronze Age period. Such cist burials, constructed from stone slabs and designed to contain inhumed remains, represent important evidence of Bronze Age burial practices and settlement patterns in the Northern Isles. The spatial distribution of the cists suggests a deliberate cemetery arrangement characteristic of Bronze Age communities in Shetland.
