I've always believed that nobody did anything without good reason, so what the heck do cupmarks represent, do or say?




Good reason for them doesn't mean that you or I might be able to understand that reason . People do things every day in our communties /time /culture that we don't understand , even after they attempted to explain it .
Why should we expect to understand a silent voice so distant temporally and culturally ?


So have you not 'moved on' in your understanding of them at all then George or are you still evaluating? Any speculative thoughts?
