Re: Rectangular holes in stones

Mortise and tenon joins are very strong aren't they? That's a good connection. It's so annoying that so much about the past is gone to dust - it's like trying to reconstruct my internet surfing from a squashed computer chip 4000 years hence. So little remains of everyday things like houses and clothes and bags and dinners and so on.

Look, surely someone remembers which stones were in the dvd. It did occur to me that sometimes holes like that are natural (stones are pretty holey in these parts) but close up you'd think you'd tell the difference.

As usual I'm waffling about things I haven't seen (hmm sounds horribly familiar) but the way Mr Soskin was talking it sounded like he was familiar with these sorts of holes from stones all over the place?
