Talk:Henge

message: The most famous stone circle in Orkney is the Ring of Brodgar, not the Ring of Bookan (which as of this writing doesn't even have its own page yet).  The latter is nothing but a mound - a very interesting mound that was likely a magnificent stone circle, but a mound nonetheless.  The Ring of Brodgar on the other hand is largely intact, with 27 of the 60 original stones still in place.  It surprises me that anyone could make this error, given the obscurity of Bookan compared to Brodgar.  Thorf 06:32, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I've never seen an archeology term defined with such precision before. The definition seems terribly precise, as though the ancient builders used exacting floor plans. The definition provided comes from a UK government web site, making it look more like a legal term for conservation purposes rather than an archeology term. What happens if a henge is found that is a bit less than 20 metres?
:I think it's just a term used to classify things for the benefit of both government and archeology.  It's not really that precise - Stonehenge, for example, doesn't qualify as a henge under the strictest interpretation! Gymnophoria (talk) 12:33, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

message: This page only seems to cover the British Isles.  Afraid I'm ignorant on the subject, but are henges are particularly British feature, or do they appear elsewhere in Europe and further afield?  If so perhaps would be a good idea to flag this page for expansion. Gymnophoria (talk) 12:31, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a tricky area and I'm not aware its really been discussed fully on wiki, except on a few scattrered talk pages and edit summaries. The predominant school of thought (as I see it at any rate) is that henge's are a British phenomena. There are a few similar monuments in Europe, but they are mostly of a different design and (assumed) purpose. For example Goloring. One day, when I have time, I'll check it a bit more thoroughly. I don't think its worth an expansion tag though. Even if they do exist outside of Britain, they are definately a British centric monument. Cheers, Ranger Steve (talk) 12:51, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
