How much do we know about Stonehenge? Less than we think. And what has Stonehenge got to do with the Ice Age? More than we might think. This blog is mostly devoted to the problems of where the Stonehenge bluestones came from, and how they got from their source areas to the monument. Now and then I will muse on related Stonehenge topics which have an Ice Age dimension...

Bluestone Enigma in the Stonehenge Visitor Centre
If anybody is planning to visit Stonehenge in the near future, herewith a reminder that "The Bluestone Enigma" is now on sale in the Visitor Centre shop. Although the message of the book is pretty heretical as far as English Heritage is concerned, it's to their credit that they have decided to stock and sell the book. I'm now waiting for just 1% of the visitors to the Centre to buy the book, and I'll be a wealthy fellow! On the other hand, sales will depend on how and where the book is displayed in the book collection. If it is prominently displayed, face out, then people will see it, examine it, and (I hope) buy it. On the other hand, if it is kept in a cupboard or displayed spine out, people may not even see it............ and they will be encouraged instead to buy the glossy tomes that promote the tired old orthodoxy.
