The move away from cereals and their production is evident in other areas in the period and some see this as a move away from farming after the earlier introduction .


Does the absence of grain indicate a move away from farming? If Durrington Walls was indeed a settlement for the builders of Stonehenge, would they involve themselves in farming? Probably not, they would be too knackered. If Durrington Walls had another purpose - such as a seasonal festive gathering, again grain based food probably wouldn't be on the menu.
