The "cupmarks", hollows and pits are almost certainly weathering phenomena … “<br /><br />This bedrock surface texture reminds me of some Atkinson pictures you posted awhile back from the excavations of the Stonehenge Layer. Of course, the bedrock of the Layer is chalk rather than dolerite. And the pits were more than just 'cupmarks'. But otherwise the 'texture markings' seem similar.<br /><br />Glacier moraines may not exist at Salisbury Plain. But we should use the evidence we have, rather than the evidence we like to have to prove our case!<br /><br />KostasConstantinos Ragazashttp://knol.google.com/k/constantinos-ragazas/the-un-henging-of-stonehenge/ql47o1qdr604/16#noreply@blogger.com
