Two, but both currently in the same place"?

And to suggest it as 'something new' is erroneous, as if it is a stone circle variant, it's barely a stone circle at all, a likely representation in stone of a wooden linteled circle.
To use that as an example of how there might suddenly appear a completely new tradition in portal tomb building is just typical misleading stuff, desperate connections attempted, typical self published, unreviewed fare.

I'm smiling to myself here as I had you down as the number one to stick the knife in as all of your previous posts to me have been. Nothing new there either is there. Try lightening up a bit and read the whole content before accusing me of being misleading. I'll await your order in due course :-)

There’s nothing wrong with self-publishing (as opposed to vanity publishing). If it was good enough for Beatrix Potter it’s good enough for anyone. It’s those who claim they're working on this book or that book, and it’ll be out shortly but never is, that gets my goat. If you’re going to criticize Mr Goutté’s book at least have the courtesy of reading it first and then do it with his research in front of you.
