All over this planet ancient peoples were building elaborate structures that were aligned with either the setting sun or rising moon and they did this with very primitive tools and the wheel wasn't even invented yet. Why did they do this and how? Why were ancient people so obsessed with the sun and moon like this? And to do this someone would have to pick the spot for the building, sit there day after day, night after night and then at the precise moment lay a marker down on the ground to mark the setting or rising moon or sun.
Similar to the Neolithic Temples in Malta of Ħaġar Qim. The ones in Malta were found roofless. Ħaġar Qim (pronounced hajar qim - q is a glottal stop) aligns with the sunriseof Summer Equinox in the central doorway and with the Vernal and Autumnal Equinox in another chamber.
@Squid McFishfish Yes you are right. Some simple calculations show, that Maes-Howe ist 30.000 years old., at least. www.groben-turismo.com/berichte/maeshowe.html
"nothing more than wood, bone, or stone tools." That right there makes me question the timelines put forth by the anthropological community and I think humans are a lot older than the scientists believe. Stonehenge and other earthworks of this kind would be impossible without active metallurgy.
Except that the way Maeshowe was constructed can be pretty easily explained with basic tools. The slate that makes up the tomb can be easily broken to make smaller pieces, and then the chosen pieces were stacked on top of each other like heavy Lincoln Logs. Stacking slabs of rock is actually very common in Scottish architectural history, and is still done when making rustic looking walls for a property (look up dry stone construction). It would have taken manpower, yes, but the construction is beautifully simplistic, as with most "mysterious" human monuments
Wonderful! More of this please!!!
Lots of magic there!!!!
Another great sight in Orkney,.
Amazing. I love this place.
Who could possibly downvote this?

Maes Howe is a Cymric Brythonic Celtic name. Field of Hywel
