is there any evidence to suggest that megaliths were once painted like the Picts and the Terracotta army?
Don't think there's any evidence for such ur23 but the idea's an intriguing one, and one we've discussed before somewhere. Personally I'd go with it. If you're going to haul great stones from great distances you're m'be going to enhance some of those stones with colour and/or decoration (both on the stones themselves and between them?).
