Lol. Your stalling.

Raising the stones won't protect them and you know it



I know it wont, though i'm of the view they wouldn't need protecting.

Let's say a buried piece of sarsen would last 10 million years, though it'd never be seen, a re-erected piece lasts 9 million years and is enjoyed by a countless number of people, is that a good trade off ? imo yes.


One of the 'factual' reasons for raising the stones at Avebury was that it would help protect the stones both from what, weathering? and theft

This I believe is factual 'bull shite'
