[HappyHag]

Thanbk you!

Beautiful sound track.

Couldn't help but notice there's graffiti on the stones. What a shame.

[HappyHag]

Yes, Jacques aime Marie or somesuch. Of course the weather damage has probably been greater than the graffiti - it's only soft limestone.

THE FIRST DOLMEN WAS MADE WITH SOUND

Them are inspired from the N side of Mt. Montserrat.

See a huge part of the mountain that look like a bull.

The priest projected the idea to the NW,... ever it was possible, but: INCLUDING SOUND!!

Yes, I expect they made them that way everywhere there were stones to use...Maybe it was only for the very rich, though.

I took up the violin when i was forty. Kind of a mid-life crisis thing. Gave up when I realised I'd never be Yehudi Menuhin. But now and again I have another go - it's better than not having a go.

[HappyHag]

I think it's a tomb. Empty now, obviously!

Thanks for posting, Julia. I bet those stones could tell a story! I assume they were put together to form a dwelling or maybe a tomb? I wonder where the stones came from originally? Dragged along by a glacier and then moved by hand thousands of years later? So many questions this lunchtime LOL!:)
