Rhosyfelin RIGS -- official notification




Here is the 2016 official notification / citation for Craig Rhosyfelin. It has taken a long time to get onto the official record!   It is based on its geological / geomorphological interest, but there is also a mention of the disputed quarrying hypothesis.  What is very intriguing, to all who know this site, is that Parker Pearson, Ixer and Bevins have never acknowledged, in any of the papers published between 2015 and the present day, that their ideas are disputed by anybody. That is not the sort of thing that is supposed to happen in the world of serious scientific research.......  

Say what you like about this blog, but we do at least admit to all and sundry that there are normally at least two different interpretations of anything worth thinking about...... and we have never claimed to be uniquely in possession of the truth.

Am about to duly Share this Post on my Facebook, thus disseminating this to those " with eyes to see" and unbiased outlooks!

Thanks Tony -- it might well bring this to the attention of some who have no idea that there are professional geologists and geomorphologists who have examined this site carefully and who see no evidence whatsoever of any quarrying activity. The wording of this citation went through a very rigorous process -- as it has to, since there are planning and protection issues.
