The knobbles, as you called them, would be artificial.


if that can be established as a fact it will be interesting as the amount of effort involved in reducing the whole surface in order to leave the nobbles standing proud is pretty great. Not as great as with the Stonehenge tenons but still pretty hard.


As would the slopes themselves Nigel so just leaving the knobs behind would be no big deal really and earlier than SH. Look what they left behind when they scooped Abu Simbel out of that mountain!!
