What
are Modern Megaliths?
The following are
photographs documenting modern megalithic projects at the Earthwood
Building School and at Dragonstones in the U.K. The pictures show stone moving
and erection using ancient methods.
Rolling "The
Ancestor," a 6'6" basalt megalith, to its final location.
The stone
weighs almost a ton.
"The Ancestor"
was marched up a wooden ramp, by rocking it back and forth with
a
long 2" by 6" beam.
The granite base stone also weighs about a ton.
British stone circle builder Ivan McBeth directs the positioning of the first stone at the
Dragonstones circle near Hascombe in Surrey, U.K. Ivan was co-instructor at our
first Megalithics: A Stone Circle Workshop held in August of 2000 at Earthwood
Building School in West Chazy, NY. Go to Workshops and Register for
