Well, thanks to your forum postings, I've just discovered Tombo's Megarakaphobia and it is delightful! Good luck to the rationalists and seekers after truth - I'm a seeker after truth also in my own way. But, anyone who seeks to understand megalithic structures, their purpose, meaning and relevance to their builders and users through 21st century eyes, ethos and science is doomed to perceive only a fragmentary distortion. If we look at megalithic remains without imagination and wonder, we only see piles of old stones, engineering problems or just a list of ticks in our trainspotters logbook. Long may the stones remain unknowable, mysterious, obscured by time and wonderful.
