Silbury Hill

Silbury Hill is about the same age as Avebury, as I recall,
maybe 3000BC at its height, all part of a giant, connected
"ceremonial" complex. The Hill is still the largest earthen
structure in Europe. It has been excavated many times,
but nothing has ever been found, except the sarsen stone
foundations and frame that underlie it. Humans are not
allowed to climb on it.











Up closer; sheep's eye view







No climbing, humans
