Considering the fact that a large long-barrow and large round-barrow on the hill above seem to “address” the space on which the Long Man stands, 15 years ago I allowed myself to speculate what the view of the Long Man might have looked like 5000 years ago.
I have now used AI to tone down a speculative hill figure from the original.
This is during the Neolithic. The newly created long-barrow can be seen, as well as sky-burials nearby, preparatory to their remains being added to the barrow.
