Truro Eastern District Centre Neolithic Enclosure
Date Added: 11th Jan 2013
Site Type: Causewayed Enclosure
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 8th Nov 2012
Truro Eastern District Centre Neolithic Enclosure submitted by Andy B on 8th Nov 2012. Initial findings from the excavations suggest the eastern end of the site may have been a ‘causewayed enclosure’ dating from the early Neolithic period (3800BC to 3600BC). Later activity on the site includes the deposition of Late Neolithic Grooved Ware in pits within the enclosure, one of which also contained a stunning piece of Neolithic art carved onto both sides of a slate disc.

Bishop Eastern Sierra Petroglyphs
Date Added: 11th Jan 2013
Site Type: Rock Art
Country: United States (The West)
Visited: Yes on 20th Nov 2012
Bishop Eastern Sierra Petroglyphs submitted by Andy B on 20th Nov 2012. An area in the Volcanic Tableland in eastern California where thieves apparently attempted to carve out a petroglyph and then decided to move on without it. They ultimately extracted six slabs with the ancient images, and damaged many of the others in between with their equipment.

Pierre de Kazeg Ven
Date Added: 9th Jul 2013
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: France (Bretagne:Finistère (29))
Visited: Would like to visit
Pierre de Kazeg Ven submitted by GinnynJohn on 25th Jun 2006. This stone is very difficult to locate - there are few references to it apart from old Breton postcards. It is the remains of a much larger stone that was used as a fertility stone - local women and even Anne of Brittany, all used it's powers of fecundity!
Apparently, viewed from above it is a very rude shape!
Fortunately for Ginny it did not work!
