Stonehenge and its Environs 134

Bedd Arthur is of course the pearl that links the bluestones of Carn Meini to Stonehenge, a similar horseshoe arrangement, and one other of course, the 'stone river' that runs so dramatically below Meini. One other factor that makes a strong 'ancestral' link is the smaller natural stone carns that look like neolithic longbarrows, and also, though I never investigated it but took a long distance photo, was a ridge with a line of stones making their way down the ridge..thats where I got my 'teeth' imagery. The creative act of looking at a sacred landscape can easily be visualised here....

And I forgot to say that if we could get rid of all the modern day paraphenalia round Stonehenge, and viewed it as something that amassed its history over centuries with all the barrow cemeteries round it, the truth might become clearer ;)

Gaelic for tooth is fiacail , and a skyline of a rocky ridge is often described as fiaclach .
