Stonehenge Solved?

From latimes.com early this morning:

Stonehenge was a royal family’s burial site, researchers say

“…The structure is aligned with sunrise at the summer solstice, and researchers have long viewed the monument as both an astronomical observatory and a cemetery, although they thought that the burials took place only over a relatively short period, perhaps a century.

“But research over the last three years has provided a wealth of new information indicating that Stonehenge is only part of a much larger ceremonial and religious complex.

“Excavations at Durrington Walls, two miles northeast of Stonehenge, revealed a village that is now thought to contain as many as 1,000 houses and a wooden henge that is virtually identical in design to Stonehenge but is aligned with sunrise at the winter solstice. It was built at the same time as Stonehenge.…”

Cobbler… Pondkeeper… Cobbler… Pondkeeper…

…what’s the connection?

We did a lot of work on the little pond this week, and snippets of this kept popping out; don’t know why…
