My problem

To my mind some ancient monuments are just ancient but not interesting. Vitrification of any kind appals me. Sorry. I'm squeamish that the vitrification may have been the cause of a dreadful anguish some time in the distant past. As I believe that the now and the then are directly plugged into each other, it causes me a problem. Even if you send me to a plain old hillfort, I won't be interested until I see former Neolithic remains within the defences which I can get a handle on because it suggests a gentler way of life than the presence of those foul Iron Age ditches. So vitrification? I shudder.
