Newsnight had a piece on Ugandan child sacrifices by "witchdoctors /shaman" or whatever you want to call them . How many sites that produce positive "vibes " for the contemporary visitor were witnesses to the same ?


Someone quoted Time Team to me, saying most of the burials in stonehenge were men, proving a patriarchal society, which explains why the site has a welcoming vibe tfor men and not women. My reply was "not if it was the women sacrificing all the men, matey".



There is a disproportionate number of male to female and child burial deposits in general , certainly not a reflection of the demographic . Maybe it was blokes doing the culling to get access to even more women .
