"In all seriousness this is a fascinating development. The only way I can imagine they did this was by sea. The altar stone would still have needed to travel some distance over land. " Isn’t it? Blows my mind. Neolithic Orkney is a fascinating place and the possibility of a link with Stonehenge - I know, it’s a leap - is incredible. Mrs TMN x | |||

I guess there were people who travelled the country spreading news etc. But how did they know when to go? | |||

"Be a good lad Tom and get them boxed up and sent back up to us. North of Glasgow..." Indeed. Seems Orkney was the Neolithic sort of Rome for all that stuff. | |||

"It did come from Scotland and it was a Welsh man who made the discovery. No idea how they moved it so far. " I'd love to know. So many questions. How did they know where to get it from? How did they know where to take it? How many people would it have needed to transport it? Who organised them? How did they say on the journey? | |||

And somewhere to recharge your transport animal. | |||

"They may have moved it over years, or not just in one go. I think they are going to do more research to evaluate its origins more precisely. It's certainly very fascinating how much travelling they did. So much conjecture for us, based on limited data. At least the Egyptians had the Nile, to transport their giant stone structures upon" Yes they might not have thought of time in the same way as do. A modern henge builder would want everything on site in the first week of construction wouldn't even start | |||

Judging by the new pavements they've been laying in Salisbury, they would put up the wrong sort of stones. And then they'd bugger off with the job half finished once somebody had been stupid enough to pay them 'because of their cash flow'. | |||
