  • Only a few miles outside of Cardiff, this impressive ancient monument is well worth a visit. Boasting the largest capstone chamber in Europe, it's not the heaviest capstone, but it is huge weighing in at 40 tonnes.
    Join us for a quick tour of the 6000 year old site, 1000 years older than stonehenge is estimated to be, as we explore the popular folklore.

    Hi everyone, thanks for watching. We apologize for the loud music. We made this video at the start of our CZcams journey when we hadn't quite figured everything out. We have a new Tinkinswood video with extra info and aerial footage if you would like to check that one out.. you can find it on our channel :)

    You can bet that within minutes of the bloke straining and struggling for ages to get it into place his Mrs said she changed her mind where she wanted it

    Cool.. a new channel showing ancient sites and not a word about aliens or imaginary advanced technology. Well done! Got a subscriber.
    If i was a neolithic person and came upon that site, I think Id call it home! That would be like winning the lottery!

      Definitely, and another cromlech, St Lythans is very close by and worth a visit 💚

    It's an excarnation site - the pit at the bottom is for were the bodily fluids to collect - in Iran they are called the 'Towers of Silence'. after a period the bones would have been collected and taken to a Long Barrow nearby - hence the connection from 'Dolmens' and Long Barrows. B-)

    they always are shown with soil around the sides and top yet there aren't any like that.

    they didn't lift these capstones, deposited after the iceage the locals burrowed under them adding smaller supports like pit props, this is know from seed collected in different soil layers

      Glacial erratics are generally considered to be part of the story... but it's also generally accepted that they were raised and sometimes moved great distances. In your scenario, they would need to carry out huge earthworks to flatten the surrounding area, as these monuments are not in holes?

    "All shall seek shelter under rocks or in musk's boring company caves."
    5 loaves crossings of our Star's magnetic equator complete and two 1,000 year apocalyptic fish crossings to go until perigee with the galactic bulge. 12 1,000 year/orbit baskets between 1,000 year crossings. 6,000 years orbits away from our Star's magnetic equator & 6,000 orbits years towards our Sun's magnetic equator with 1,000 years/orbits to cross & these the climate change end times Jesus warned us to watch & prepare for. Mystery of the 7 stars Jesus held in his hand.
    Or if you like the Galactic Milankovitch cycles, Mayan short & long count calendar, Yugas, Sikh 12 warriors, Japanese Ying Yang, Chinese long march, magnetic north etc etc.

      ​@willswift94 thanks! It does sound OK on some devices, others it distorts pretty badly... it's a mistake on this video, but we really like the flutes too!

    The Earth's electromagnetism was different back then. This means gravity which is an electromagnetic force was different enabling those at that time to lift these several ton stones into place with greater ease than today. This is why we cannot conceive in our minds how these were lifted because of the physics we understand today. How could gravity have been different? Easy. The Earth's global electric circuit is powered by the Sun and the galaxy. We are attracted to the Earth because of moving charge which creates magnetism. Since our physical bodies are electric, we are attracted to the Earth. Back then, since gravity was different, this enabled animals, vegetation, even people to grow larger. But when the gravitational change took place between 6000 to 12000 years ago, all the large animals, etc., died off. Oxygen levels were also greater, as well as, the carbon dioxide levels. When you cannot solve a mystery using conventional methods, change the way you think.

      It's a nice theory but very large animals died of 65 million years ago except ocean going animals but i like your theory

      @@Johnketes54 65 million years is a guess by those who have no way of proving that. It's also "a theory". We've been brainwashed with this for years by an academic community with an agenda to hide the fact that they believe a lie and a fantasy. They've done absolutely no lab work. They sit behind desks and make up stories for grant money. And all are afraid of exploring any other theory because they fear losing this money. However, the evidence for a change in the Earth's magnetic field is all around us, and we CAN do lab work to demonstrate it. THIS is real science, not dogma regurgitated by lazy academics. They speak of their theories and fantasies as though they are fact. It's time for us to wake up and stop listening to these old, worn-out wind bags who haven't made a significant advance or contribution to science in over 85 years!Think about it. If Einstein was correct, why are we still using Newtonian physics to go into space? Question everything. Do not accept regurgitated dogma.

      FIRST TIME I have ever heard this theory about gravity being different back in acient times. I have heard about oxugen levels being higher but not gravity lower. Where does your info come from please?

      @@Johnketes54 That is bs because there are fossils that debunk the millions of years theory without breaking a sweat and the moment evolutionist scientists are asked to explain it they can't or try and change the subject. This is why evolution is still called only a theory and not factual. It is just too complex and too many inconsistencies over many decades.

      Hi, thanks for watching and commenting 😁 Although it's technically a couple of miles outside, Cardiff is useful in the title as it is short and easily recognisable to people who are not from the area.
      We also now have a longer & improved video about this site on our channel, with more information, better audio and aerial footage

    Why is the music overpowering the narrative. A- It's stupid and B - the music adds nothing of value. I had to stop listening it was so annoying.

    • @coraljackz
      @coraljackz  Před 10 měsíci +3

      Sorry about that, we usually check how the audio sounds through a TV & a phone after levelling on the PC... but we obviously missed that step with this video, it sounds OK on some speakers but others it gets badly distorted...
      We'd be interested to know if you would prefer no music? Or just quieter/better mixed?
