Re: More evidence on Stonehenge/Solar connections

They've been toying with this idea that the early monument was built around the Heel Stone for a couple of years, suggesting that it was there from some time after the mesolithic posts. It certainly is an attractive idea as more and more menhirs (e.g.the ones in the Algarve) are giving very ancient dates and as more and more new research outside the UK is revealing equinox/solstice allignments with a low probability of it all being pure coincidence. Hasn't the Heel Stone's pit been dug for organic material (with modern methods, not 100 years ago)?
