pilfering

Thanks, Minimalist, for that excellent bit of information.
It feels right to me.

I have another feeling...that in our lifetimes perhaps, the practice of returning artefacts to their countries of origin will

hun

eratoh, it looks like you are onto something! Nobody in Romania seems to know anything about it!! :shock: :roll: Why is that? You say you visited the place in 1990....how did you know it was there? Were you looking for it on those old maps? And I take it that no one has ever excavated this place? Re...

features

Could they be neolithic henges?

I could view the 3rd and 4th links only.

Do you have any shots from the ground...
How big are they?

Are there two circles inside a big one?

off topic

Those emoticons are perfect! Where indeed?? BUt... I'm as guilty as anybody, but let's get back to archaeology! These other topics belong on other forums or other threads anyway. DB has her own website. Furthermore, I vote for toning down the language....that little poem was, in my opinion, gratuito...

How did Jimmy Stewart dismount ponies?

daybrown

So, Rokcet, you say db is just chanting her mantra, and she implies we are droids without souls who are incapable of learning anything, even from her. She writes: "there are forms created and animated by the divine force, which exist solely as a challenge to the fulfillment of Kharma. The way t...

costs

One might be harder to make than the other, granted, but I imagine our forebears had a few spare hours to work on them and make a few extras. Anyway, the expense of bows and arrows did not stop people from developing ...
