I have made quite a few points lately complete with examplars haven't been rude etc , but they have been ignored . What by me George? What were they only I thought I'd replied to all as best I can. You have been busy ,no problem . here's one copied . What matters is the quality of that evidence and the fact that is must be extraordianry to support the extraordinary claims . Thinking along the lines of it being a jigasaw puzzle may not be helpful . It's not about coming up with the most efficient use of building blocks as seen from the perspective of the 21st c . You could spend forever rearranging the component parts of monuments to suit a particualr aesthetic or the way they " should have been ". Take Gaulstown http://www.themodernantiquaria[...]ite/1374/gaulstown.html(scroll to 6 th pic ) it has an unsupporting angled sidestone that is angled in the wrong direction to be of any use in the case of collapse does that make it wrong or suggest that there has been a re-arrangenment ? Trethevy was a precision built tomb George. All angles were cut and the only three with no angles showing is the one that got damaged when the lid slipped, the front closure and the original backstone which is rounded. You should be able to work it all out from that. The Gaulstown one you show is like comparing a Rolls Royce with a mini. Trethevy is a real gem and special. Right, dog exercise time. Had a great afternoon watching United getting trashed by the blues and answering questions and all in a good manner (with the odd exception!!)
