there was that 18 th C ? bloke , can't remember his name , did drawings of red Indians /native Americans , Mandans? and was a big influence on the suggestion that excarnation may have been used here .


Remember that, there's an illustration in Burls' Prehistoric Avebury, it was George Caitlin who painted the picture of the four poster platforms of the Mandans.
Burl takes excarnation for granted, mentions Catal Huyuk platforms, so you're saying that the idea of excarnation is just an idea? though to be fair it happens in lots of places so it could easily have happened here as well, thats how they explain four timber posts here as platforms....
