Good to see the thread is up and running again. Thought it might have been permanently shut off...


Nah, though as its originator I think I might be entitled to shut it down for 24 hours while tempers cool and it's given the chance to get back on topic ;-)

The point is that just because you believe that Neolithic tribes were capable of transporting stones from A to B, that does not mean they actually did it.


Quite. I'm no expert, and can't back up my belief that the stones were transported by human means but (rightly or wrongly) it's my gut feeling that that's how they got to where they are. Happy to be proved wrong though - that's what this debate is all about :-)
