Sorry -- not with you on that one. Kindly explain.


The recumbent was quarried . If it was an erratic too then the quarying would have had to have been pre Holocene and therefore before any evidence of human habitation/quarrying in that area .


You appear to be very certain on this point. Come on -- give us your evidence that it was quarried by man and not by ice. (Ice quarries blocks too -- it's rather good at it.)
