Re: Henges designed to exclude?
Aug 01, 2003, 10:49
I take it with all this talk of sports and dancing and animal enclosures that we're not talking about the type of henges with burial pits, with posthholes all over them, with stone circles in them, etc? If they were for animals, why not just put up a fence? Surely the basic type 1 and 2 earth ring henges are just a cheaper simpler model of the more complicated ones with posts etc?
If you're saying they were for Very Important sports and dancing that's as good as saying they were for rituals.
