I can't see the Priddy henges resembling the Pleiades.
There is the curious traditions among the hill folk of Somerset relate that Joseph, after first seeking tin from
the Scillies (islands) and Cornwall, came to the Mendips and was accompanied on several occassions by the boy Jesus. At the parish Church of Priddy, high on top
of the Mendips, they have an old saying: 'As sure as our Lord was at Priddy.' And a carol sung be the children of Priddy begins: "Joseph was a tin merchant, a tin
merchant, a tin merchant, and goes on to describe him arriving from the sea in a boat."
Just to confuse matters even more.
