--stonehenge( construction)--


   an epiphany--

   i passed a model of stonehenge this morning( likely a plastic one), and the most probable way in which stonehenge was constructed came to me...i present it here for your inspection--


  construction--

     i feel that large stones were carefully located, that were long and thin( a huge, time consuming process), then these stones were moved to the site via an ox( or dragged, by many persons with ropes), once at the site, a shovel and ropes were all that was needed...a small hole was dug, and then another right beside it, for the stones to sit in( like a "pilot-hole" when drilling a modern hole, a rope was then cut-to-length, between the holes, to measure the distance between them( so that they might remain equal)...then the amazing thing, the stones were tipped into the small holes, upright, by building a pile of dirt on one side of the stone, and flopping it against it, and then filling up the other side...in this way the two stones were "locked" in an upright position( completely covered in dirt, on all sides), and the stone on top was raised into position, via a similar method...the top-stone was tipped onto a pile of dirt, slightly below the stones fulcrum point, this allowed the stone to "flop" onto this "plateau", and be raised, the area that the stone was on, before being flopped onto the "plateau", was then filled in, and the stone was re-tipped onto the original area, this was done over and over again, in a "sea-saw" pattern, until the stone was level, with the two columns buried in dirt, the top-stone was then likely pushed over, into position, onto a pile of dirt in front of it, that contained the two support stones...i suggest that the pile was then left to erode naturally, after the stones were aligned, allowing them to naturally settle into the earth, together( with the dirt around them, supporting them as a complete unit, as they settled), eventually, the dirt supporting the structure would be washed away, leaving a strong structure behind, in complete balance, and firmly settled into the earth--

  summary--

   i suggest that this process was repeated for each of the stones standing, until the site was complete...for my thoughts about the intended use for "stonehenge", see my "stonehenge/easter island road-vector correlations post" within this blog--


  note--

     the columns that hold the "top-stones" aloft, were likely raised, or "earth-jacked", in the same way...via digging a small hole beneath the earth's surface, or "zero-line", and tipping the stone into it( raising one end), in this way, the earth beneath the stone's edge held aloft( above the zero-line), could be filled in a slight amount, and then the stone could be re-tipped onto this new, raised "zero-line", resulting in a lifted stone...afterward, the area of the original hole would then be filled in a slight amount, i suggest that this process would continue until the stone was at a level high enough, to dig out beneath half of the "berm" holding the stone loft, allowing the stone to be slid, against another berm, right beside it...creating an upright column from an otherwise immovable stone...i believe that this system was used for each upright column at the site...i also feel this process to be the same one used to build the Egyptian pyramids, allowing the huge stones they were made from, to go almost straight up, and then be pushed into place, with this technique, instead of the "super-huge ramps" previous speculators have suggested...in short, i feel that someone came from far away shores, with a secret system( from Cairo??), and a serious tool for building civilization was with him--
