Stukeley found the remains of a buried horse on top silbury.
Iron aged bridles and odd pieces of metal.
The thing is about names is that most of them are anglo-saxon and the original name that the neolithic constructors had for it is not known for sure.
Local legend said that Silbury was raised while a possett of milk was seething.
Core samples show that it was built in one go and not as previously thought over a period of years.
