"has got similarities other than coincidental ones?"

Hi Rhiannon,

The small stone is from (+/- 300 microliths) the excavation that we're doing in the Netherlands. These have proven invaluable to the consistancy and learning how the stones interact. The megaliths 'do' the same. The images are a different subject to the measurements, but they come together in a simular style, this large Stanton Drew stone shows simularities with the Wheeler Elite Stone and The Cove Elite stone, all three have elaborate headdresses. I'm not sure if this latest face is the representative, though I have done next to nothing with the colour inside the silhouette/markings.

The 100% simularities are in the touching points to a set measurement grid that is very close to the metric system - 2 cubit units = 1.1cm.
This doesn't mean that all stone do it but most in all size and shape.
There are inconsistancies, but more as in, there are 2 types of 'underneath' flat or peg, just when one has established that, one finds 20/30% don't abide to this rule, not making things easier and all the features do this.
The measurements are the most consistant.
