‘halls of the dead’ Honestly I don’t know much about that but I see it took place from 4000 to 3600 bc. I wonder if Stonehenge is part of that?

here’s a little map . I wonder how tall those stones really are?

Over the pandemic I’ve been doing a little amateur sleuthing on ancient cultures. Three of interest being Gobekli Tepe, Nevali Cori, and Catal Hoyuk

Early shrines/settlements aren’t that far off age-wise from those found in England. So I wonder if the same dynamic was in play world-wide that is suggested by the Levant discoveries - religion birthed settlement and domesticated farming instead of settlement birthing religion: Build a religious site, the people will come. Cooperation in farming brings trade that brings power to the priests and elites in the form of tributes. Elites provide protection to small bands of hunter/gatherers now farmers and trademen and part of a cohesive group with an identity.

Interesting menhir!

Would you believe I've seen at least one menhir (still standing as a "table") -- and numerous standing stones -- in the forest immediately SW of Foxborough, MA?

There was a guy in the MA Archæological Society who mapped a complex network of "Ley Lines" connecting such structures atop numerous hills in the area...
