Bruniquel Cave

Post by circumspice »

I've been jonesing for further updates concerning Bruniquel Cave & its enigmatic stalagmite constructions. Sadly, I can find no recent updates. Maybe Michelle can dig around & find something? This poor archaeology/anthropology junky is going through withdrawals...

In the meantime, here is a somewhat philosophical discussion about material & cultural remains from a blog that I was reading.

Fwiw , no mention of henges .

I think the question is "stone circles in caves by Neanderthals ? "

Interesting 3d pic ,scroll down .

That was a tongue in cheek cross thread reference.
Some people seem to see henges in every circle.

I agree with you about this discovery.
It is beyond "very interesting."
Some kind of update is needed.
Almost 2 years is a long time.

Are we maybe stepping on some toes with this find?

I did find this mention from a year ago.
No real news though
