Ring Of Brodgar

Part of the Ring Of Brodgar, Stenness, taken on a cold, dull evening this last Sunday.

And my pal Viki standing at what's probably the tallest of the stones still standing... Now, she's about 5' 3" (JUST taller than me... ideg), so you can take a stab at what sort of height that stone is... and that was raised without the use of modern JCBs, scaffolding, or the like about 2000 - 2500 years BC! I'd like to see some of our building firms do that now!
