Sorry , TJJ maybe I should clarify ,I was suggesting that sarsen was the implement to use , on sarsen . Hand held direct percussion , an A frame with a lump held in a sling etc .


Thanks Tiompan, I find it hard to visualise but can't think of anything harder than a implement made of sarsen to work sarsen with. Bronze implements wouldn't last long though may have been used. Its possible of course that they all came out the ground that shape but again it seems unlikely.

Gladman, sorry for diverting your thread away from Coldrum ... I'll shut up for a bit now.
