1. Once again the English appropriate someone else’s artifacts.

   1. Bugger off. When this was built they were Celts or even pre-Celts. I need to read a more in-depth article on this theory, but the fact that some of the stones came from Wales is not disputes by anyone.

2. Cymru am byth !

   1. Have you ever lived in Wales?

      1. Yes, why do you ask ?

         1. Because so have I.

      2. Does born there count? My then-three-year-old figured they were stone age monkey bars but they’ve been fenced off since.

      Gotta respect any people who go under the banner of the dragon. Myth my ass! The dragons moved the stones! I’m sure of it. Didn’t I see that in Game of Thrones?

         or… who can bring their 50 ton religious
         artifacts with them when they need a
         new home.

         not like sticking a rosary in your back
         pocket.

4. Fuck that. I am a Greek.
   So, then, you are telling me that the hairy Celts, then the poxed Angles, ripped my people off.
   Oh, and we Greeks invented Fucking Windex.
   So, piss off, unless you want to make fuck, Shirley.

   1. Great response Stevie, from the founders of Western Civilization.

      When philsophy was being created, the Hyperboreans were still chipping flint.

5. Interesting place. I visited Stonehenge late one August evening in 1972. Nobody was there at the time. Eerie in the sunset. No traffic on the road, I was cycling at the time. Had the place all to myself. Camped for the night 5 km down the road at an old hill fort off the A303, called Yarnbury Castle. Iron Age. Even more eerie. Shared the hill fort with 3 horses for the night. Great vantage point in the morning. You could see for miles all round.

   I have my own photos of Yarnbury and Stonehenge.

6. I always tune out when i hear “Archeologists say…”. It’s akin to “Experts say…”. Pure cringe

   1. I minored in Classical Studies and Ancient History, and although at one point I thought about following up post-grad by getting the full degree, I changed my mind when I realized that 99% of the field is people making shit up to get papers published. There just isn’t a lot of original archaeological material to be had, getting more is expensive and no one wants to pay for it. The publish-or-perish environment means most work in the field is just wild, made-up bollocks.

      And now its been completely corrupted by the SJW lunatics. I saw one of them the other day trying to argue that melanomorphic pottery was evidence that the Archaic-era greeks were actually black.

7. The builders imagined it, designed it, and cut the pieces, and then looked around for somewhere decent to put it.
