Roof on Stonehenge - richsc - 01-28-2016

Now this is a creative interpretation. A roof on Stonehenge?  Not sure if this should be here or in Off Topic.

Totally OT. For one it's not Roman but neoloithicum, for another it's total fantasy: no examples of similar 'monolith-based roundhouses anywhere', and what about the foundation for this building?

May this explain why Chuck Norris' most famous technique has been called "The Roundhose Kick" ??
You better believe it, Baby !

Erm...there *may* be evidence for monolithic houses but it just hasn't been published yet. There is even evidence for neolithic SQUARE houses...again, not published.

Still a bit of a wild punt , though, bordering on fantasy but sometimes people from "without" do have valid opinions and different approaches which should not be too heavily condemned, perhaps.

I could accept a monolithic house but this would be a monolithic Basilica! Smile

Hi,
....all kidding aside:
A (wooden) roof on stonehenge is "thinkable" , but IMHO not "proofable" -- yet.
I think in that very case this is "overstretching" "argumentum e silentio".

I personally think it is barking mad but trying to be fair Wink
