Think you'll find, ST, that the final stage of Silbury was constructed of chalk, not just had a chalk covering.


That's the point isn't it. It isn't just a spoil heap, and mound is a misleading description because it is a complex construction.

"But if Silbury was in fact designed as an 'island' "

Exactly, if it was an islland you can keep sheep off it and that keeps it free from cryptosporidium which is what poisons Swallowhead.

I have no idea if this is what it is about but at least this is interesting to think about.

Sadly I have another full box of cynic muesli to chomp through but I am saving that for next week.

Today is my birthday - I am 32 and a half ! And I am a iddyl inebraiated..

VBB :o)
