Oh - and another! Stonehenge in Brazil



And what do we have here - moments after I post my last findings:

Brazilian archaeologists have found an ancient stone structure in a remote corner of the Amazon that may cast new light on the region's past. The site, thought to be an observatory or place of worship, pre-dates European colonisation and is said to suggest a sophisticated knowledge of astronomy. Its appearance is being compared to the English site of Stonehenge.

The stones appear to have been laid out to help pinpoint the winter solstice, when the sun is at its lowest in the sky. It is thought the ancient people of the Amazon used the stars and phases of the moon to determine crop cycles. Although the discovery at Amapa is being compared to Stonehenge, the ancient stone circle in southern England, the English site is considerably older. It is thought to have been erected some time between 3000 and 1600 BC.

This is not just Astronomy as reported but ASTROLOGY but of course mainstream sources won't report this much.

I hear Stonehenge may be rebuilt by 2009, which I see as a good sign we are trying to retrace our steps and locate lost facets of our collective story on Earth.

Love,
Neil
