Piedmont (Region) — Links

Internet Archive In the Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries of London for 1899-1900, there's a report about a cupmarked stone near Gignese with a drawing. Other stones are mentioned too, with the amusing detail that rubbings took nine sheets of the Daily Telegraph, and papier mache casts made with sheets of the Guardian. No penny dreadfuls for this sort of work, naturally. Or indeed local Italian papers. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink

Kelly's rock 3- Giutte column (Natural Rock Feature) — Fieldnotes

This natural menhir ("adopted"menhir as Mr. Carmelo Prestipino said) is standing right in the middle of Ligurian gulf (as you can check in the map), and this says much already. Is seated in a very sacred area where there are springs called "Holy water" (Acquasanta), very close to Issel's Stone, Giutte's Long Cairn and the first Kelly's Rock. It was discovered already four years ago by my friend Angela but only now I show it and share it over here...(silly me). Ciao ! Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink
