Bedd Arthur is of course the pearl that links the bluestones of Carn Meini to Stonehenge, a similar horseshoe arrangement, and one other of course, the 'stone river' that runs so dramatically below Meini. One other factor that makes a strong 'ancestral' link is the smaller natural stone carns that look like neolithic longbarrows, and also, though I never investigated it but took a long distance photo, was a ridge with a line of stones making their way down the ridge..thats where I got my 'teeth' imagery. The creative act of looking at a sacred landscape can easily be visualised here....


Gaelic for tooth is fiacail , and a skyline of a rocky ridge is often described as fiaclach .
