In a time of so many damaging lies and fake information, adding to the lies in anyway no longer seems charmingly eccentric but fighting for the dark side

If the River Kennet was as high as you say wouldn't that make the Marlborough Mound an island back then? Interesting.

What a great video. Visited this enigmatic place many times but never considered the water aspect. With water in place in the video it immediately conjured up a vision of how Atlantis is presumed to have looked by some proponents. Graham Hancock and Carl Randallson speak of a technology transfer at the end of the Younger Dryas. Works of this magnitude would require a great effort and resource drain from a small population so there must have been great motivation. Thought provoking video, well presented. Thank you so much, your effort is greatly appreciated. An interesting and plausible interpretation.

Avebury is my favourite place ,Been there three times now , beautiful place ,you'd love to wake up here everyday,all that history and there's always people putting new documentaries up on UA-cam about Avebury ,plenty to immerse yourself into 😊

Great review and fresh new insights, which I agree with. Visited Avebury and downs many many times over the past fifty years. For me it’s always the ditch that is the true star as had to be before the stones, it’s like the cake before the candles, the cake is always the star, the candles just highlighting the majesty. Same with the circular ditch it is actually the star. Imo it was the hub for everything in that part of Britain and maybe built to mirror the ring of Brodgar, or vica versa. As so many flint finds in the area demonstrate that they came from everywhere in Britain it certainly was the ancient HQ be it settlement or spiritual. If there ever was an Atlantis society seven thousand years before it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that the generational memory down the years transcended to a giant ditch and moat in tribute.

Ridiculous thumbnail! Nearly didn't watch this...

It's a port.... there is another giant circle that people don't know about ........ 5000bc ..... That doesn't show up on lidar it's abit of a secret they don't want us to know our true history it's in England but not near Avebury

Well water doesn't run uphill. (not sorry)

Our true history has been stolen from us.

It was a canal accross southern England beginning at Bristol.The word Dyke means canal .Fascinating archeological vlog,thankyou.The Romans inherited their roads from a previous much more ancient advanced civilisation which was completely destroyed in a massive cataclysm.This canal has been lost to us in the myths and legends of England.Our entire history has been stolen from us.Further ressearch Sylvie Ivanova at newearth.Happy searching.

Chalk ?

Ein sehr schönes Video. Wir waren im Oktober 2024 und es ist wirklich wunderschön dort - vielen Dank für die Arbeit 👍

Aliens

So there would be sediment in the bottom of the chalk henge to prove the water moat theory....

I visualise the footsteps of giants in Avebury

Such a good video 👏🏻

Very nicely done, and a real gift for people like me, halfway around the world with little chance of making the trip to see it first hand. Many thanks!!

What amazingly annoying music.

You. Not thinking trading is ritual. You might just want to do some archeology and get to understand how 'ritual' is used to describe human created artefacts.

Drinking game; every time he says 'the largest stone circle in the world'

A pedantic point, and I haven't watched the video yet, but there aren't any "history books" about these monuments because they are prehistoric.

Awesome! Thank you

There are some strange markings around the Adam and Eve stones

Lose the overwhelming music and just get on with it. Why are all UA-cam videos becoming so boring

i've been to avebury, and the stones are really impressive, and what's more there's no charge, as for stone henge, let them keep it, what right, have they, to move in and treat it as if they own it ? it's been there, for a hell of a time, for free, and the reason there is so little of it left, is because, the farmers destroyed most of it, because it was in the way of farming. and you can bet your life, that the church, goaded them on, (to destroy those pagan artifacts). when they were, trying, to destroy stone henge, one of the stones, fell on the guy pulling it down, and killed him, so the superstitious locals, refused, any attempt, to destroy the rest. my original point, is, that your drone photos, make it look, as if, there are only a few stones ? this is way wrong, there are loads, if you look from ground level

I wonder how they dug and dredged the then 'moat' around the 'island' when the river was so high. The Hydrology raises more questions than it answers. I realy enjoyed Your presentation, easy going and factual without tv bluster :-) I wonder what the water levels were 500 years, or more, earlier when folk lived up at the Windmill, much higher for yonks ... and then came down and made Avebury. Could a people have duggen a moat whilst already flooded? I feel that there is much much more too be gleaned about the place. :-)

The earthworks are staggering. Great video mate !

Only found your channel recently but your videos are fantastic my friend. Thank you for your work.

👍

You've shown it as a port, which makes sense.

It would have helped if those Crazy Christians Had not insisted on Burying most of the Stones ..

Good filming ..You are investigating the verry same , as i have been also ...water is the key. But where did that rock come from ??? Some of the brown orangey stuff is sandstone half turned to GLASS stores heat for ages..

This was very well put together. Can you think of another piece of England that has been so cherished. Also an excellent microcosm of our historical politics. Fascinating.

A bit like the Catrail or Warfence running through the Scottish Borders strange but true?

Most nights have an evening walk and listen to something on UA-cam and frequently UA-cam then plays something else, so I stumbled across this via the algorithm, the music is too loud compared to the narration. I was carrying two bags of shopping and the ground was very wet so I did not put them down and turn down the sound but for anyone who is not deaf your sound levels for the music are too loud.

well its by no means a new theory, but as soon as the dumplings who have guessed as always it the origins of not just wansdyke but hundreds of similer sites" as soon as they accept common sense and the obvious reallity of canal systems the better, and many orther facets as well, ace video, MINT". cheers.

Amazing place that every spiritual person should visit 🙏🙏🏿🙏🏽

Was the original author of the idea affected by looking at a map of the Pennines, where the River Calder emerges from both sides of the ridge of hills?.. Looking for the source of the River, (Calder), following it up from Hebden Bridge and Myth Holm Royd, pronounced My-Them-Royd, locally, Luddenden's Other Foot, (Luddenden Foot), all along the River Calder, so on up past 'Drippy Bridge' and Calais Lock, (on the Canal), (Callis Lock, real name), and so on up to Todd Morte Den, pronounced Todmdn, locally, (Todd means death in German, and Morte means death in French), there is a fork in the valley system here, turn left to 'Summit' and Rochdale, to the South, or follow the Calder River, on the right fork of the valleys.. And so up and up, and looking at maps, the Calder goes up and up, towards the Spring, then continues down-hill to Burnley... Em, that's what the map is showing, so a closer look with a detailed enough scale of map, to trace the Calder River to its Spring, is looked at. Within a stones throw, almost literally, in easy view from the Spring, there is another Spring, with its stream flowing in the opposite direction to the Calder River, back toward Tod - Todmdn, and Hebden Bridge.. 'Someone having a laugh' naming two Rivers with their Springs almost next to each other, and flowing in opposite directions, the same name, both are named River Calder.. (up and down hills by water, with no locks or water supply, except for two trickles of two Springs). The Calder Valley is / was very aware of the need for a comprehensive extensive water supply system, reservoirs, including the highest beach in all England, a sandy beach in a corner of one of the canal water collection reservoirs, up on the tops of the moors, all around.. Wave a Wand at Wandsdyke, to make boats go up and down hills?..

"in the centre was no doubt some sort of trading station" ..No doubt? What evidence is there that any stone circles ever had a trading station in the middle? Maybe there was, at Avebury, but sorry, where's the evidence? Excellent work done for this vid, no question, but the title just looks like a click-bait, with no explanation enough what it was that the history books got wrong... The fact that there was flooded terrain, or terrain around that was under water, doesn't in any way say thet Avebury was not a ceremonial location. Why was the ditch of the henge (ditch and bank) 9 Metres deep? is a good question, and books maybe miss the flooding issue, but this doesn't make them getting anything wrong.. ONE point, that the history books say that the henge ditch was all originally joined up all around? not seen that.. Maybe true, but still not up to the dramatic title.. And implying that it was all just a trading centre, on basically an island, just doesn't make sense. "Whatever the site may have been... it's no doubt a most magical sight" is true, and sorry, though, but this hints that 'The Real Truth' titles are usually no such thing.. Just another clik bait line.. And still no evidence included from known excavations that while feesible, the area around Avebury was marshy or flooded.

fine piece sir ,but you dont seem to understand that also the mounds surrounding the stones were chalk , so in the sunlight would have beemed white , love to get our heads together on this .

Clever but had to skim thru crappy drama music mate, +way to loud!

Amazing video mate..Researching myself St Catherine’s hill in Christchurch where the Avon is on one side and the stour on the other..But near St.Catherines is Ramsdown,which is a smaller hill in the shadow of St.Catherines..By Ramdowns are two Bronze Age burial mounds on which one is situated on a man made ridge and slope dating back to the Neolithic..I think all three are connected and St.Catherines with the two rivers beside her was an important site in history of the area and the U.K.. Thank you again and all the best

Awesome, I was looking at Marlborough and the water courses going to Avesbury and Towards the Thames when this video popped up, I think this is pre historic and this would have been how they brought the stones from Wales to Stonehenge :) Apart from the Orkney Altar Stone, although I think they are trying to debunk that one at mo. We also have tunnels in the Scottish Isles, maybe they are also canals for transporting stones/wares. They have often speculated how they transported many things up and down the hills, I think this is the answer as otherwise they would have got bogged down constantly by our famous misty isle weather. Now I wonder where else this mysterious canal system will pop up. think of the tracks on Malta leading to the sea, or the boats they know from Wales that had three runners like a catamaran-where there is no longer any water only leaving ancient evidence of boats and boat building. Very interesting!

Fond memories of Wales.

If the area was flooded , how did they dig the ditch ?

You should not assume that the ditch was ever 9m deep relative to the surrounding land. Over the centuries the bank would have eroded and new layers dug out to raise the height again above the relative height of the surrounding land. Modern ditches are cleaned out, but very rarely do people make an effort to clean out right to the bottom of the original cut.

Yes, thanks for the video, as I should have said in my last comment. I would also have mentioned Thomas Hobbes, one of the most influential political and philosphical thinkers in Europe, who was born in Malmesbury in 1588. He calls himself 'Thomas Hobbes of Malmesbury' in perhaps his most influential book, Leviathan. Certainly an important part of Malmesbury's history.

Malmesbury is not in the heart of the costwolds, but rather on it's south estern edge.

Absolutely no evidence for flooded ditches. This is Langdon gone mad! No, NO, NOO!

lol - no. What you're proposing here is a giant lake, not a river. Such a thing did not exist. Rivers don't pool up like that. They flow and erode, creating deep gullies in the earth as they do so. There's no evidence of what you're proposing at all.
