 -When they look at the skeletons that they were found down in the lower levels of the mine, one was actually covered by rubbles and all that sort of material just behind me here. The body was laying stretched out in the gallery as if going towards the flint. When they looked at the bones, they realized that it was a skeleton of a young woman. I think it's easily plausible¹ that this young woman was a miner, and that she did come to an unfortunate untidy end, down in the galleries when the r* collapses² on her. Her colleagues perhaps feeling that she being claimed by * didn't go back and recover her. The astonishing size of the mining complex at g* graves reveals people capable of planning and executing large-scale projects. Attributes that were harnessed in the Stonehenge landscape to create the vast great c* monument.

While the function of the mine is proven, the role of the c* remains³ a mystery.

-We still don't know why such a huge amount of *woods but in constructing such big monument as the c*.
