Re: This isn't a dig; I'm just confused....

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.


Bloody Hell - synchronicity or wot! Was just about to start a sub thread entitled Drop the Hill. Have avoided using the word Hill when talking about Silbury for sometime now as the word just doesn't do the structure justice. Let's see if English Heritage latch on to that idea. Mind, if they go ahead with their cow-horn music fest on top of Silbury 'Dropping the Hill' might be a bit too prophetic (Jericho springs to mind :-(

Happy birthday VBB. My mate Antonio reckons he's 28 - I don't believe him either :-)
