Carn Menyn - Source of the Stonehenge Bluestones

Carn Meini, Pembrokeshire (GR: SN145325) The outcrop from which the famous Stonehenge Bluestones are said to have come.

Awesome!

..and I thought that the Stonehenge Blue Stones were a Rock and roll group from the Bee attle era!

Remember the term Bee Attle? Trivia question where did this term arise!

[Chode]

i hope someone can HELP answer your question...

"Remember the term Bee Attle? Trivia question where did this term arise!"

I'm from that era and I haven't the slightest idea.

[Young Werther]

Yup! I need somebody!

Wham Bam "Thank you Mam!"

"chemical analysis of their teeth revealed they were brought up in South West Wales."

There has got to be a joke in that line somewhere.

I think a little Tap is needed on this one. LOL ;)

Stonehenge, where the demons dwell
Where the banshees live and they do live well
Stonehenge
Where a man is a man and the children dance to
the pipes of pan
Stonehenge
Tis a magic place where the moon doth rise
With a dragon's face
Stonehenge
Where the virgins lie
And the prayer of devils fill the midnight sky

And you my love, won't you take my hand
We'll go back in time to that mystic land
Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow
I will take you there
I will show you how

I never heard the big stones referred to as "Bluestones" before. In any case, most interesting discovery.

[auntyfemenist]

Well, Bee Attle juice, of course. Only ever heard it in the cartoon like that.

Wonder if these people perfected their art on Easter Island.

Thanks Blam. I wonder what "fairly recent" activity means? Hundreds of years? Decades? Millennia? Interesting article.

The Bluestones aren't the big stones, they're part of an outer structure. If memory serves (sometimes that works) the Bluestones were part of an early phase of building.

From the big bad Blue Meanie?
