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...
THE BOOK Some of the ideas discussed in this blog are published in my new book called "The Stonehenge Bluestones" -- available by post and through good bookshops everywhere. Bad bookshops might not have it.... To order, click HERE

So THIS is the replacement jacket cover for the 2nd edition of Mike Pitts' How To Build Stonehenge?!
The profile of the stones in this cartoon is particularly relevant to Waun Maun, as both Mike Pitts and the late Tim Darvill pointed out, i.e. the depth of the stones and stone holes there was too shallow for any proto - Stonehenge emplacement.

It's all in the interpretation. I could tell some tales!
