Re: Stonehenge Riverside project by Thorgrim on Tuesday, 29 November 2005

I agree entirely - midwinter was the important festival. The idea being to halt the decline of the sun and to bring it back higher in the sky and to lengthen the days. Midwinter marked the turning point. It was mentioned very briefly on the programme. Makes me laugh when I see all those people cavorting at Stonehenge to welcome the mid-summer sun. Guess they wouldn't be so keen to go there for a cold midwinter sunset party!.

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
