Dear Mr Pitts... Congratulations on your project to build a replica of stonehenge. A very interesting program. I was curious about sea level during the actual building period. Also the work on accoustics. As you know nearly all religious ceremonies are accompanied by music, many with chanting. If a group of people where standing within the stones in a unified chant, can you image the effect it would have on the whole ceromony ! As you know sound has its own paticular effect, I feel sure that the builders of stonehenge would have known this. Perhaps the innner circle of blue stones were used as positions for such chanting... if these people were facing the stones they would act as sound reflectors, inward. The effect could be truely remarkable ! All ancient religions have a particular place and use for sound, the most noteable being the Hindu who have a word/sound for the original vibration of creation AUM... It would make sense if this sound awareness was also applied to the builders of stone henge, perhaps this would constitute inherent knowledge to them, something we have forgotten.
yours sincerely Colin Mitchell Williams
