tkdguy Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 Actually the pyramid builders weren't slaves. They were paid for their work. But the Egyptians did have a lot more resources and technology, so the Stonehenge builders did a great job with what was available.

Cancer Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 And our gaming group has the private theory that most of the megalithic constructions were done by the equivalent of frat boys doing silly stuff for beer. "Dude, we got a tub of mead that'll be just about ready tomorrow. But to get any you have to help us put up a rock." "Put up a rock? " "Yeah, like that menhir the Tiger Squat clan made over by the oak grove a couple years back. We can do better with fifty guys than those bums did with twenty." [Considers] "How much mead we talking?" "More'n enough to get fifty guys good and buzzed! And we'll have roast elk ready, too!" "OK, meat and mead both, yeah, I'm in."

According to the NOVA program on Stonehenge that aired a few years back, archeologists find evidence of gigantic feasts held nearby. Meat animals from all over the isle of Britain, so presumably feasters from as far afield. And the presence of mead is a reasonable assumption. The UK should revive this custom. It sounds much more fun than those silly guys in bedsheets watching the sun rise and calling themselves "druids."

I thought it could also have been High Noon, what with its theme of one man willing to stand against evil when no one else will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
