Re:you want proof?

Hi Tom
When someone actually drags a 40 ton stone for a credible distance (say 1/2 a mile in one day) then I'll concede that it might have been possible for Stonehenge to have been achieved that way.

My ambition is to do just that without dragging the stone for even one inch. Then the archaeologists will have to better it.

As regards the Great Pyramid this is a different problem entirely. Here the problem is delivering one fairly heavy stone from the quarry to the pyramid site every two minutes, day in day out for 20 years. I cannot believe this was possible just by muscle power, even allowing for the size of the Egyptian population. So I intend to prove how it might have been possible, thus forcing the archaeologist to prove that dragging the stones was also possible.

Best regards Gordon
