... nearby Gosenk Henge has been interpreted as a solstice observation centre, but, although two of its entrances line up with the rising and setting Sun at the winter solstice, the third entrance is several degrees off either true north or midsummer sunrise or sunset. (The association with the winter solstice is interesting in the light of recent observations at Stonehenge, where the age of pigs slaughtered for ceremonies indicate that it was the winter solstice which was important at this site too). Still in the Nebra area, a 4,200 year old burial mound has revealed the remains of a an elite male, with missing upper body and legs, surrounded by people who had been violently ...

... , pp. 44-45, 1.12.01, pp. 46-47 Geophysical surveys of Silbury Hill, the most impressive prehistoric structure in western Europe, have revealed that this artificial chalk mountain' was built in a spiral fashion with a spiral processional route to its flattened summit. Supposedly built in the Stone Age, several hundred years before Stonehenge, it would originally have been a brilliant white and probably surrounded by a water-filled moat. There is obviously no denying its connection to the universal myth of a world mountain or tower, with spiralling snakes, rising from the waters of chaos. By the Bronze Age, copper ores were being mined not only in Cornwall but also on ...

... build the Great Pyramid today. Jill commented that if the dating is wrong and it isn't as old then that would get rid of half the technological problems. David said this is the other aspect of the Atlantis myth - a civilisation which was more developed than today's, with greater technological ability and skills. There are the 3 Pyramids, Stonehenge, huge blocks at Baalbek and the South American ones which Hancock brings in. A lot of that just cannot be done by any of our technologies. The larger archaeological remains of a post-Atlantean time date much earlier than we would conventionally accept. Not three thousand BC but six or seven. Benny said he would accept the point if ...

... to be the earliest depiction of the cosmos yet found, the star painting in the tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh Unas, dated at 2400BC, being an artistic rather than an accurate depiction of the night sky. It is inferred the area in which it was found must have functioned as an observatory and there are hopes of finding a German Stonehenge. In Iron Age Britain around 500BC the Druids appear to have had detailed knowledge which enabled them to predict lunar eclipses. Remains of a ritual site in a swamp in eastern England show that there were 12 groups of wooden posts and new posts were added every 18 years, which is a major lunar cycle. Astronomical calculations show that ...

... coast of Africa, even remaining up to 40m high when, nine hours later, they [sic] reach the east coast of the Americas'. The article references speculative fringes of science writing' such as Hancock's Channel 4 TV series Flooded Kingdoms of the Ice Age and Uriel's Machine by Knight & Lomas, which proposes human civilisation before Stonehenge was flooded in to near extinction by giant tidal waves caused by asteroid impacts. As far-fetched as this may seem, Knight and Lomas draw on oddly unsettling evidence, like the wide areas of Scotland coated in an ancient layer of sea-sand and the fact that analysis of tree rings and ice-core samples suggest [that], in the last ...
