Promo - Stone Pages Stone Pages Archaeo News Stone Pages in collaboration with BAJR presents a weekly podcast with the latest archaeology news, mainly related to prehistory, megalithic monuments and discoveries. It is often difficult to find some news about the most recent archaeological meetings, digs and breathtaking discoveries. As we are particularly interested in prehistoric and megalithic monuments, we are trying to collect every bit of information about them and to put it inside this website. In these pages you can find the latest news about those special events, people and places mainly related to Europe's most ancient heritage. Visit the Stone Pages website or go directly to the podcast & news page.   Sources used in this Episode http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/celt/gafm/gafm18.htm http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/celt/gafm/gafm19.htm http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/celt/gafm/gafm20.htm And, of course, the Awen - inspiration and imagination!   Special Thanks For incidental music: Adragante, Queste from les cordes de l'âme. See the Contributor Page for details.
