There is some pretty strong evidence if you know where to look, The Dolman at North Salem Westchester County New York, a massive 90-ton stone shaped like a turtles head supported clear of the ground by 4 to 6 standing stones. Described officially as glacial erratics, some very clever glacier.


There's a very nice fat glacial erratic on a tall plinth near Kenmare in Co. Kerry which is entirely natural. When you consider how the boulders may have been transported in the glacier then dumped as the ice melted, there's fairly good odds a large boulder will rest on a pile of rocks which are then trapped as the surrounding boulders are washed away, leaves a convincing looking 'dolmen'. I've seen pics of the 'dolmen' in question and it looks like natural causes is very probable.

The Eye Chamber near Carmel Putman County New York, described as a colonial root cellar. Yet lined up with winter sunrise on December 22.


The sun moves at a pace along the horizon that's pretty near imperceptible around the solstice so it could well be up to two weeks off at either side. How long is the 'cellar'?
