Missed markings

In October, Dr Terrence Meaden started a major debate about the nature of Stonehenge and the origin of the face that, if real, has gone unnoticed for perhaps 4,000 years.

Other archaeologists are in the process of studying it. Many are remarking that, face or not, it is amazing that nobody has pointed out the markings before.

It has been suggested that there may be more faces carved into ancient rocks in the Avebury complex not far from Stonehenge and in the stone monuments of northern France.
