The Action.


The Action
This story, a neolithic puzzle that originated at the beginning of social interaction deeply affected me as a child,partly because I could not articulate the the full meaning of Archaeology, the sciences of chronology and other details that for a child, hold little actual interest, I was experiencing the delights of contemplation and extending my mind into the delights of thought. I romanticized what I had heard into my own revelatory expression. It had no narrative logic and very little reason but the riddle of the makers of the Stone Axe Heads whose reputation spread throughout Europe and whose apparent obsession would appear to be universal is too great a tale to be told by one teller. I have asked others to help me tell their tale by placing the stones in the situation of their choice, others have found these stones all have a story, a theory or a concept they can share.
