Silbury Hill
The Archaeology of a Monumental Mound

A synopsis of the lecture given by Jim Leary, the English Heritage archaeologist responsible for the recent survey on Silbury Hill, held yesterday at the Wiltshire Heritage Museum, is now available here - http://www.eternalidol.com/?p=6179

Much of interest, but perhaps also recognition of what many of us have thought for some time - that the sarsen 'chunks' found alongside pieces of antler represent dead ancestors.
