Thanks Blam. Also partly in Wiltshire, the later construction, the Wansdyke, involved more material. Links page has a link to another Wiltshire work (I'd never heard of it), Bican Dyke Linear Earthwork.

My theory, which I call the Cool Hand Luke Hypothesis:

Ancient rulers believed that idle hands did the devil's work against them. Busy subjects were too tired to revolt.

"Now that you've finished digging that hole, fill it up!"

Hadn't heard of Bican Dyke either.

Offas Dyke

The highest concentration of 'O' type blood in the world is behind Offas Dyke.
