Newspaper article[edit]

Canada's Stonehenge older than many great spirit sites of the world Pashley (talk) 06:47, 12 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Pashley: thanks, but we shouldn't use newspaper reports as evidence of age. This article has problems as it gives different dates, I'll see if it can be sorted. The book by Freeman, (a chemist, not an archaeologist) is his 1st book on this structure and was self-published. He wrote another published in 2012 by an alternative publishing house and thus not a reliable source.[1]
It may be about the same age however. Exactitude is usually impossible in such cases unless there is chronological evidence. Stonehenge dates to about 3100 BCE. Doug Weller talk 07:12, 12 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Removed second cite in the article today (looks placed in 2008) date. Apparently the placing editor confused this MW with the Medicine Wheel in Wyoming (bot-replaced url from Wayback: web.archive.org/web/20080125062135/http://wyoshpo.state.wy.us/medwheel.htm ) Twang (talk) 09:56, 10 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
