In the book "Retake Your Fame," author Aylmer von Fleischer has proved beyound any reasonable doubt that Stonehenge was built by Blacks.

Has proved nothing, and is universally laughed at everywhere. Beyond any reasonable doubt indeed.

I saw a cat cough up a Firbolg once, it wasn't pretty.

You're absolutely right. And the great African god/goddess ZOT may visit us with his/her celestial presence.

How did you join tomorrow after posting this today? Is it that international date line thingee? The archaeological and antrhropological evidence I have seen so far seems to preclude any real chance of actual negroid race that far north at an early time.

And the Colossus of Rhodes was built by Anjo fishermen as a lighthouse.

The beam, of course, pointed toward Atlantis.

Update your homepage so we know you are in Jolly Olde England. Or wherever.

Irish tradition has it that Stonehenge was built by Blacks from Africa.

Faith and begorrah, lad, they weren't the Black Tan or the Black Watch. And Irish tradition has everyone that ever stepped foot on the other 'old sod' as the devil's first spawneen, or don't you know that?:)

Lemme guess---you wrote this book or otherwise have some stake in it?

[Servant of the 9]

The older inhabitants of the British Isles, like the Picts were referred to as 'black' but in usage that merely meant swarthy. Anyone who was not very fair of skin was called a 'Black Man'.

The reward posters for Charles II during the English Revolution refer to him as a 'Black Man' but we know from history and many paintings that he was half Italian and not especially dark. The Irish sometimes refered to the Italians as 'Black' in the NorthEastern United States as late as WWII.

There is genetic evidence slowly accumulating that supports the Irish legends that the Tuatha di Dannan came from Western Spain. That would make tem 'Black Men' according o the usage in the area.

It appears that Blacks have not always been a subservient race.

Then why are they now?

[nmh]

Oh, oh, will they be extorted for reparations too?

Who cares what the Irish myths say?

The last time I visited Stonehenge, it sat there on the Salisbury plain, plain as day. And the Salisbury plain is near Winchester, site of the Winchester Cathedral.

And the whole shebang is in England, west of London.
