Solving The Mystery Of Stonehenge With Dan Snow

Stonehenge megalith came from Scotland, not Wales, ‘jaw-dropping’ study finds

archive

new analysis has found that the largest “bluestone” at Stonehenge was dragged or floated to the site from the very north-east corner of Scotland – a distance of at least 466 miles (about 750km)

It’s long been known that the bluestones come from Wales, but this identifies links with a quite different part of Britain, and significantly more distant from Stonehenge. So it suggests that the site was known not just to people in the south, but over a much wider area – and that opens suggestions for the whole way we think about Neolithic Britain.

Hexolic or oxalic acid? Anyhoo, I don't think it's anywhere near as strong as molten natron, I know that it's used to clean quartz slabs but I doubt that it can etch it efficiently. Key word here being quartz, not just any stone.

I just revisited the website I posted and saw that he finally self-published his book, I'll have it by Wednesday. I hope it doesn't disappoint!
