Common sense approach would be to look somewhere in between the provenanced source locations.<br /><br />Looking forward to next September!chris johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16210890033354730381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1228690739485734684.post-65413320719553279352013-11-20T09:12:23.623+00:002013-11-20T09:12:23.623+00:00No -- not at all.

But there is a lesson in all of this, and it is this: one uses the term "bluestone quarry" at one's peril. It looks as if Carn Meini as a "quarry" is dead, much to the irritation of Profs Darvill and Wainwright. Prof MPP keeps on referring to Rhosyfelin as "the rhyolite monolith quarry". Hmmm -- that's what's called tempting fate.BRIAN JOHNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00413447032454568083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1228690739485734684.post-11172388014476763432013-11-20T08:48:57.144+00:002013-11-20T08:48:57.144+00:00So Rhosyfelin is dead?So Rhosyfelin is dead?Jon Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11264966739582178631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1228690739485734684.post-24151197880976459652013-11-19T18:26:55.583+00:002013-11-19T18:26:55.583+00:00Brian
