The macehead is breathtakingly exquisite, isn't it. I first saw it when Neil Oliver visited Knowth for the Ancient Britons series - awesome is a much over-used word but it truly is.

It would good if there is an online link later so we can share this series.

Ever since becoming a stonehead eons ago I have always felt that we were missing something, something that we simply don't comprehend, like a missing page of history that we know nothing of and seeing that macehead reinforces that to me. For someone in the Neolithic to have shaped that with such dedication, skill and without 'proper' tools quite simply blows me away. They have always had my respect, always will and feel that we have lost something really special in the passing of time.
