MAGIC - Multi-Agency Geographic Information for the Countryside Don't let the appalling acronym put you off. This is a really useful web site containing rural and countryside information from a number of Government agencies including English Heritage. NB. The MAGIC map is designed for use with Internet Explorer 4.0, Netscape Navigator 4.6 or higher and a screen resolution of 800x600 pixels or higher. This is not a site for modem users either.

Caerleon Site of one of the three Roman Legionary Fortresses in Britain. Previously, the Hill Fort nearby was one of the strongholds of the fierce Silures. There is evidence that this site was refortified after the Romans left Britain - could this be King Arthur's Camelot? Geoffrey of Monmouth who was responsible for the firing up of the legend certainly linked Caerleon with Arthur. This website includes details of the recent excavation of the fortification.

Rock Art in the British Landscape An international groups website about prehistoric open-air abstract rock art in the UK. The link "Rock Art in the British Isles", posted by 'fitzcoraldo' (thanks!) on 25th August 2002, refers to the same website but the link is dead. So why not try this fresh one about these mysterious 'images of a lost message'? We hope to see you soon! And.....room enough for new members in 2003. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink

Asuka-mura, Shimanosho Some photos of a MONSTER sized, Japaneze stone chambers (Is this a wedge or passage tomb?) Ishibutai crypt is, in overall size, the largest in Japan. The largest of its boulders, the one forming the southern part of the ceiling, is estimated to weigh 75 tons!!!. 2 photos in black and white and some neat diagrams A similar tomb at a site called Jourugami was recently found to contain a stone coffin see http://www.japantoday.com/e/?content=news&cat=1&id=206258 for more on that one.

Megalithic pages Reconstuction of the Grand menhir brisée (Grand broken menhir) The largest menhir in the world. Once standing upright, it was over 20 meters in high - although 4 meters of that hidden in the soil. There was an opinion that it was standing until the 16th century when it was broken whether by earthquake or by lightning. Now it seems almost sure that it was broken down shortly after been erected (some 3000 years BC) and divided in four pieces to cover contemporary dolmens. But this never succeeded. This website also has great links to sites all over Europe. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink
