What happened after completion however is maybe the interesting bit; was it reserved for special ceremonies with only an elite few allowed access, was it open to all at any time, or was it a combination of both when it was out of bounds to most people most of the time but opened up a few times a year for special occasions.
Or was it just left alone by the builders as the job was done? We know it was 'used' by others later but maybe it served a non working purpose to the builders and was simply part of a larger picture. No Neolithic/BA burials have been found so it may have served no ceremonial type purpose on its own. I have my own thoughts but I'm away off to Penwith in 5 minutes so will see you all on my return. Play nicely :-)
I'll tell you what Silbury was in creartion when you get back from taking the dogs for a bark, then maybe you'll stop going' on about it!
