Ancient stone monuments may have been used for Mysterious moonlit ceremonies, say archaeologists

The rationale for the headline produces some wonderful one liners .

Did someone actually say ““When we went out to some imaging at night, when the camera flashed we suddenly saw more and more art, which suggested that it was meant to be seen at night and in the moonlight.”

Laughter aside , the important thing is that there are some genuine markings in an area where they are far from common .

Hellig Kvinde

Hellig Kvinde (trans.) Holy woman and the other smaller stones in the open (to the west ) rectangular setting , her children .

The adjacent broken stone could have been the bodach (Hellig Mand ) to the cailleach but goes unmentioned .
