Re: greek monuments by AlexHunger on Sunday, 29 October 2006

Hi Victor
I picked a lot of sites that had a good "stone content" and I have been to Crete, Newgrange and Maes Home to be able to see the similarities with Tholoses.
The whole point of the article was generate an appreciation for the Greek monuments and raise questions why the evolutionary step of Dolmen was somehow missed in Greece, when they did exist in Jordan and Italy. How was culture, esources and climate different enough to cause different development?
That you wrote is a step in the right direction. With any luck a Greek contributor will feel challenged to send in more photos of interesting sites to prove me even more wrong.

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