The new discovery, described as "astonishing" by a team of archaeologists from multiple universities who took part in the project, shows a circle of shafts, 1.2 miles (2 km) in diameter, surrounding the settlement of Durrington Walls.
The site is located about 2 miles northeast of Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain, and evidence suggests the shafts date back to the same period, some 4,500 years ago.
"This is an unprecedented find of major significance within the U.K.," said Vincent Gaffney, one of the archaeologists leading the project.
"Key researchers on Stonehenge and its landscape have been taken aback by the scale of the structure and the fact that it hadn't been discovered until now so close to Stonehenge," he said.
Gaffney said the circle of shafts, each about 10 metres (33 ft) wide and 5 metres deep, demonstrated the desire of Neolithic communities to record their belief systems in ways and at a scale that researchers had never anticipated.
The discovery was made without the need for excavations, using remote sensing technology and sampling.
Nope, not writing a thread. It would be an interesting thread IF women posted but I think women in general are frustrated with trying to encourage men to pay attention to signs we send their way so they might not post in a thread.
I'll say one thing about it. Men aren't tuned into reading our minds. They are fixers. When we tell them the screen door is broken they say okay, I'll take care of that. They don't want us to spend 20 minutes telling them how the door broke. They don't care. They just want to be informed what needs to be done. Most of the time men are good are taking care of maintenance around the house.
But that's not what I was referring to. I'm talking about giving men hints. Suttle hints. You guys just don't get it. I send hints cause I never ask for tangible things but I will send a hint for him to say something. Sometimes he got it.....but not always.
I know when a man is looking at me. It's quite obvious. And I like it
Women are good at reading a man's body language.
I don't want to hijack the thread but it's been proven to me time and time again that men do not read our body language..........different ways we send messages to you guys. You just seem oblivious how to read us. But that's for another thread.
It's not a hate crime. It is a show of admiration, a compliment.
Women take time to look good when they go out in the public. When a man sees a woman that looks pretty he can't walk up to her and say.......you're looking mighty fine today ma'am. Instead he whistles.
If an inappropriate comment is shouted to a woman it's still not a hate crime. It's someone being malicious.
