BBC Chronicle, Cracking the Stone Age Code, Professor Alexander Thom  Description: Professor Alexander Thom puts forward his theory that Stonehenge and other megalithic sites were used to record time and predict solar and lunar eclipses. Magnus Magnusson looks at Thom's evidence and hears what different archaeologists think of the suggestion that Stone Age Britons could make such elaborate calculations. If Thom's theory is correct, previous archaeological certainties about the knowledge and ability of people in the Stone Age would be overturned.

Danebury: Ritual and Religion in the Iron Age  Description: Lifeways and belief systems in Britain 2,500 years ago are as alien to us today as any exotic culture anywhere in the world. Helping us come to grips with this reality is Danebury: Ritual
and Religion in the Iron Age, the latest video offering on our public
education website, The Archaeology Channel
(http://www.archaeologychannel.org).
Danebury, one of Iron Age Britain's most significant and impressive
hillforts, was built and occupied during the First Millennium BC. In
1969, Professor Barry Cunliffe began an unprecedented 20-year-long
excavation of Danebury, which he discusses in this film. Professor
Miranda Green, a renowned specialist in prehistoric beliefs, discusses
the religious significance of the many finds and burials from the site.
Stunning computer-generated graphics help bring the remarkable story of
Danebury Hillfort and its Iron Age builders to life.

Finding the Alaric dolmen  Description: How to find a 'lost' dolmen: live near it. Walk past it a few times a year. Ask a village elder. Keep walking. Keep looking. Here in Moux - a little village below a big limestone hill - we have a better chance than many to find vestiges of protohistory. I'm on the trail of another one this week, deep in the Corbieres Hills. And I'm looking forward to sharing the experience with you all on The Mega-Portal. It would be great to walk the hills together: I'm only a beginner in all this. What an adventure!

Martin Brennan amazed by Oklahoma 2007 equinox  Description: The author who shared the archaeoastronomical alignment secrets or Irish megaliths in the Boyne Valley a generation ago, witnessed a powerful solar construct shadow play at the Anubis Cave on 20 March 2007. Martin Brennan said it was like being in heaven. The sunset occured 15 minutes past the spring equinox, local time, resulting in one of the most precise fits for any observation in a century. What this says about the ancient author's ability to fix the equinox within the quadrennial leap year cycle and carve an accurate design is monumental. We think she was a Celt in America.

Mike Pitts on the Fourth Plinth at Trafalgar Square Description: Mike Pitts writes: At 1–2am on July 29 2009, the empty plinth in Trafalgar Square had something amazing on it: 10 pieces of stone. The plinth itself was carved from Aberdeen granite in the 19th century, but the stones on top were varied – dolerite, flint, limestone and sandstone. Between them they represented the entire span of humanity as then known in the British Isles – 700,000 years! They were all original artefacts which I chose for key moments in the story. It began with a flint flake from Pakefield, and via, amongst others, a beautiful handaxe from Boxgrove (500,000 years ago), a piece of Stonehenge (3000BC) and part of a block from Hadrian’s Wall (AD122), the people in this story were present in a few of the things they made. And I was there too, curating this extraordinary collection. Version: Added on: 18-Jun-2011 Downloads: 93 Go to Web Site | Rate Resource | Report Broken Link | Details

The Prehistoric Mounds of Uruguay: Linking the Past and the Future.  Description: Location: Uruguay Length: 24 min.
Uruguay's rich history spans more than 11,000 years. On the wetlands of Rocha, declared by UNESCO as one of the most diverse environments on Earth, mound-building people thrived 4000 years ago. They built planned villages, made pottery and other tools, grew corn, squash, beans, and tubers, and developed an elaborate belief system. This video shows Uruguayan archaeologists leading teachers and students from Rocha in archaeological exploration of the prehispanic past of their province, inspiring them to bring archaeology into their classroom.

Transit of Venus - Terence Meaden stars in NZ school's video streaming  Description: TRANSIT OF VENUS UK EXPEDITION
A two-week all-expenses paid trip to the UK is the prize won by three teams of students from Nelson College, Pakuranga College, and Tolaga Bay Area School, for the videos they made on themes related to the Transit of Venus and Cook's first voyage to New Zealand.
The ultimate goal is to observe the Transit itself on June 8. This website is offering site visitors a "virtual field trip". Each of the three teams is sending video reports electronically back from the UK each day of their trip. The teams will each be videoing their experiences on location.
The teams are transmitting their video files directly to website servers at the University of Auckland. Using Cannon DV cameras and Apple PowerBook laptops to edit a series of daily videos, the teams' videos will stream from 1 to 9 June on the website, so every school in New Zealand will be able to experience and learn about their adventures almost as they happen!
