Kit's Coty
Built nearly 6000 years ago at the beginning of the Neolithic period, the dolmen, constructed of local sarsen stones, once stood at the end of an irregular-shaped 84m long mound bordered by shallow ditches, and was probably used for burials.
Antiquarian William Lambarde believed it to be the burial site of Catigern, the son of the king of a tribe of Britons, supposedly killed in battle by Saxons in 455 CE

For #StandingStoneSunday here’s one of the lovely stones at #Avebury - this shot was taken early last November. Always a pleasure to visit there and walk around the circle. #neolithic

Visiting the late #neolithic standing stones "The devil's arrows" I couldn't help notice the signs had been printed with what I can only guess is the thumbnail of the town crest. Rather appreciate the #imperfection and #8bit aesthetic.

Jarra de la fase Machang (2300-2000 a.C.) de la cultura Majiayao, que vivían en torno al nacimiento del río Amarillo. En los clanes matrilineales, el patrón de ranas que presenta se ha asociado con la fertilidad, la abundancia y la renovación, un tema común en la alfarería Majiayao. 🏛️MET #neolitico #neolithic #china

New PNAS study: those “domestic-sized” barley grains from 11,000-year-old Jordan sites weren’t bred bigger. They just grew where it was wetter. Genetic selection came later than we thought. #Archaeobotany #Neolithic #PlantDomestication https://www.anthropology.net/p/rain-not-selection-what-actually

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🍞🕰️ At the #Neolithic settlement of #Çatalhöyük in #Turkey, researchers found a spongy residue near an ancient oven, ringed by wheat, barley, and pea seeds.

#Microscopy revealed air bubbles and starch grains, pointing to uncooked fermented dough. Dated to about 8,600 years ago, it predates earlier fermented #bread evidence from #Egypt by thousands of years.
