Summary
| Description |
English: A carving on the ceiling of Le Dehus passage grave half a mile from Bordeaux Harbour on the Channel island of Guernsey. The photograph was taken in artificial light provided by an electric lamp nearby (the monument is open to the public during daylight hours). Please compare this image with a photograph of the same carving taken at long exposure in natural light from the open doorway to the tomb (the photograph should lie next to this image in the wikimedia category Prehistoric art). Although this carving looks crudely done at first glance, when seen in natural light it might have been done by a Stone Age Da Vinci! Is it truly Neolithic? I am not a Guernsey archaeologist. Finds from the tomb were dated between 3500 and 2000 BC. |
