Re: What is Silbury Hill? by PeteG on Thursday, 22 September 2005

>Awful lot of Silbury defenders and enthusiasts still putting it about that it's a stepped pyramid with a spiral path.

People repeat what they have been told. Early EH press releases diverted attention away from the damage by focusing on the supposed spiral path but when you actualy looked closely at what they said it was all maybe, possibly, probably.
If there ever was a spiral path it would show more at the bottom not just start near the top.
The tomography only shows one almost full turn at the top which is consistent with the spoil from Draxs tunnel. Where else could he have put all that earth that was removed?
