If I've understood, the known archaeologists in Julian's camp are Mike PP, who is said to have mentioned it in a talk, and a research group who have issued a very strong report to a WHS Steering Group. There may be other professional archaeologists who have not said anything as yet.

Oh go on then, here's a few professional archaeos who have published pieces against the proposed tunnel:

Dr George Nash https://heritageaction.wordpre[...]enge-tunnel-another-viewpoint/

Dr Rachel Pope https://twitter.com/preshitorian

Professor Dan Hicks: http://www.independent.co.uk/n[...]ing-dont-bury-it-a7543226.html

Penelope Foreman (less unequivocal, but still "anti-tunnel"): https://suspiciousmounds.wordp[...]m/2017/01/17/under-stonehenge/

There are plenty of others who are lending support to the Save Stonehenge campaign (Dr Matt Pope, Dr Kenny Brophy, etc). Most of the ones with links to EH/NT are saying nothing, rather than coming out in support of the scheme.


Just wondering if this had answered the statement that there were no other "known" archaeos who had said anything in the anti-tunnel camp?
