I encourage everyone to watch this video; it's absolutely gorgeous in the way it's narrated. Especially for those of us who don't have the funds to visit the ancient tombs, it's an experience worth sharing, since you do feel part of a legacy while exploring this tomb and ritual site.

 I always want to shout out that the "neolithic farming community" were Pagans, as we all know here, but it seems it even took historians 5,000 years to realize that the Winter Solstice was important to ancient architecture. We already have an idea of what happened in these buildings!

I also feel a sense of pride while watching this video; it astounds me that they were so insightful and so close to nature, and also so dedicated to the Gods that one generation after another kept working until the finish of this Pagan sanctuary.

 Just some thoughts. Let me know yours!

Hi everyone,

 I'm Amarissa Vanora, a soon-to-be 19 year-old attending Knox College and majoring in Creative Writing and Women's Studies. I've been Pagan for about 3 years now, and am Dianic in specifics. I'd love to meet other people and learn about their paths, and help others to learn about the Dianic path as well. If you're interested, I run PagansSafeHouse, a Yahoo group for beginners to Paganism.

I'd love to hear from you!
