Now there was a deeply unsavoury character .
But then the great artist Caravaggio was a murderer .
So was Cellini
Richard Dadd murdered his own father
And loads more indulged in sexual misdemeanours and downright criminality .

Make you wonder
Is there a God if so why did he gift these less than sterling characters with such gifts ?

Thank you, Raven. I had only ever heard of and visited Stonehenge
almost 50 years ago. I remember it was so  hot I was glad to seek the 
shadow of each stone. One could stand close to them then. A German 
lady and I shared the shadow of one stone.  :grin:

Quote from: CHF on Today at 10:51:41 AMWow, Raven, they are impressive. I had never heard of them.
Ignorance is not bliss. :embarrassed:

I love The Ring of Brodgar, it's supposed to be even older than Stonehenge. I even met and shared a mug of Coffee with Neil Oliver there a few years back, he's so interesting to talk to.

The stone circle originally comprised up to 60 standing stones, of which 27 remain today. The circle measures approximately 104 metres in diameter, making it the third-largest stone circle in the British Isles. The tallest stones reach over four metres, and the circle is surrounded by a rock-cut ditch up to 3 metres deep and 9 metres wide, carved from solid sandstone. Unlike many henges, there is no evidence of an encircling bank, but the site is classified as a Class II henge with two opposing entrances.

Why in goodness name is everyone so fixated on the "Palestinians " 
Why not the Urghurs , the Sudanese , the Christians in Nigeria and heaven knows all the other people in the world .😩
