Zeven Bergjes | Round Barrow(s) | Netherlands | Noord-Holland | Visited | 3 | 3 | We measured and mapped the burial mounds on the Zuiderheide for an archeology project in secondary school. Good to practice some mathematics, but also to check if further disturbances were made since the last official measurements. These mounds and the ones on the Westerheide were close to school, s...

Tiwanaku | Ancient Village or Settlement | Bolivia | Visited | 16th Mar 1997 | 2 | Impressive site. Also very touristy. A lot has disappeared, that much came clear.

Sacsayhuaman | Hillfort | Peru | Visited | 3rd Mar 1997 | 2 | Very intriguing site, hard to imagine what it looked like before the Spanish started to use it as a quarry. Friendly locals around, giving information about it's history. Also some lippy kids standing gang like on the way up from Cusco, with a warning from an elderly lady to take heed for them. | |||||
Stonehenge. | Stone Circle | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 7th Jun 1988 | 3 | 2 | Back in 1988 it was very busy, one was not allowed to get near the stones.
Even getting near the fencing would provoke warnings from the guards.
Not a pleasant visit, it felt like being caught in a tourist trap.
Which was a shame, because the nearby Avebury stone circle was accessible under ver... Read More |

Dunbeacon | Stone Circle | Ireland (Republic of) | Co. Cork | Visited | 1st Feb 1990 | 3 | 4 | 3 | It was a bit of a hazy and drizzly morning, which made it slightly uncomfortable to be there initially. It started clearing up while I made some photo's. Atmospheric, nice view on the bay if you climb on the surrounding rocks. I'll look for the B&W negatives and see if they're worth a scan. | ||
