There is a schedule to release more info but it's a game of waiting for EH to record the piece first


At least that's good news even though we've got to wait for it, my worry was that we'd never hear anything about the stone again, hence my previous ranting.

it is hinted there are other unknown pieces that could come to light


ha! now I'm dribbling, must be those carrots they keep dangling again :-)

That stone in the pictures is a bit of a strange one isn't it, I wonder why they thought they had to move it as it doesn't exactly look that portable to me. I don't know what kind of rock it is (ganister?) but apart from around the top it looks very fresh - like it has been quarried fairly recently. Maybe only the top part was exposed when they decided to move it then they found it went deeper than they thought. As for any carvings, is it a trick of the light or are there faint cup marks on the top surface (or is it just my 'eye of hope' seeing things that aren't there?)

Sorry.


Hey you're a star fella, thanks for all the work you've put in. Guess we've just got to wait and see what EH do next.
