Hiya AQ,
nice to see you back.
I remember your lovely pictures on RG's site and the frustrating lack of explanations.
The rock cut alters remind me of the Persian Zoroastrian fire altars of Mazda. I don't have too many details but I should be able to dig out a picture to send you.
Are you sure that all of these features are iron age? and are not sites that have evolved. The reason I ask is that the cup marks and passage graves tend to be accepted as neolithic in age, especially in western Iberia.
I'm not sure of the Grave art sites you mention in Brittany. I have seen the art at Gavrinis, Locmariaquer and the Table Des Marchands and can supply pictures if you want them.
cheers fella
Fitz
