You didn't upset me Peter as I realise you know it is not an SH, sadly as Ishmael has just indicated, mention of spoil heaps are latched on to. There is even a publication due (according to the press) arguing it as a spoil heap, and during the CRoW campaign it took 18 months to offload the image and argue Silbury as a sophisticated built structure - a building in fact. All can be undone by someone in the press, who looking for an opposite view to something they want to print from say EH or the NT look on this site and say something like "popular websites believe it to be " etc.

Sorry everyone if I sounded a bit tetchy (its because I was) I have been arguing with the undemocratic union of archaeos who seem to think that they are the public voice and knowing what is good for the public is all that matters re Silbury. Talk about white Silbury's, views in and out, etc., are used as the public being preoccupied as Causebon (Elliot - Middlemarch) and that the issues are for others to decide. I personally value all interests placed in Silbury discussed on here, and I wasn't being sniffy.
