The same can be said about any piece of RA. What it boils down to is: you have faith in your own (and others) judgement or you don't.
Thanks, Hob, for having a go at trying to speak with some commonsense about the recognised RA at Rowtor. By "recognised" I'm not including any "serpents" or groups of very small depressions in rocks.
If I wanted to fake some RA to impress my guests than I'd go about it very differently to what we see at Birchover.
Context is a major factor too, the context of the "art" at Rowtor is more than a little suspicious, no. ?
Also, i never suggested Eyre intended to fool his guests, he may have just seen it all as decoration done perfectly innocently, later, someone, dunno who, suggests it's ancient and it's taken as fact.
Sorry baza but it's not that cut and dried for me.
