Silbury programme

Must admit I enjoyed it as well, dear old Silbury being explored, its intimacy with that fabulous old 'sacred' landscape. Not sure that the two presenters interpreted my ideas about the people who raised it, but they did there best. Strange that they were not prepared to acknowledge ritual/belief etc, it was a very 'cut and dried' interpretation resting on plain fact.
Yet at the end nothing new was really said, it was a quick clip clop through West Kennet longbarrow's final closure, our 'respected' Prof.Atkinson - ouch, and a rather good view of what is really happening inside Silbury. Leaving us with the impression that Silbury was a final last fling of the old autocracies before the new colonists came in - its still a theory....
