Megalithic Portal News

Tell Khaiber

. An ancient Sumerian city, 20km from Ur, inhabited from about 4000 to 2000 BCE. British and Iraqi archaeologists have started the excavation of the enormous building complex.

Tikal

Latest C-14 dating confirms calibration between Maya Long Count and European calendar, see most recent comment on this page. Ancient City in El Peten Department, Guatemala. Tikal, Guatemala is arguably the greatest and most complex Mayan city measured by monumental megalithic architecture. Evincing an array of majestic pyramids and royal residences, the city has yielded numerous intricately carved stelae and sacrificial altars.

Joya del Ceren

Mayan Manioc Preserved by Volcanic Ash. Provides additional evidence of the intensive farming that fed a civilization.. Ancient Village or Settlement in El Salvador. Sometimes called, "America's Pompeii," this Classic Mayan village was suddenly covered by volcanic ash in 595 AD. The village lay less than a kilometer from Loma Caldera volcano.

Announcing the Megalithic Portal competition winners for Sept/Oct 2012

. I'm delighted to (again rather belatedly) announce the winners of our latest competition. This is for the best photos/images/diagrams etc submitted to us in September and October 2012. We normally call it a 'photo' competition but they don't have to be as you will see. I have again had to combine months as votes were a bit thin on the ground. If you want this competition to continue we need more people voting for their favourite images. Anyway, on to the very deserving winners and highly commended entries:

Stonea Camp

On Weds 22nd May local archaeologists and a story teller will welcome people to Stonea Camp 'hill' fort. See below for a video showing the skull split with a sword, found at the site.. Stonea Camp stands on a gravel island two meters above sea level amid the black Norfolk fens. It must have been a very wet place and the ditches would have naturaly filled with water. There is a single bank and ditch to the south west with three defensive lines to the north. There were three periods of construction and it is suggested by the excavators that this was the site of the battle between the Roman governor, Ostorius and the Iceni in 47AD

Perperikon

Bulgaria should seriously consider inviting Mongolian shamans to "enliven" its ancient sites, argues leading Bulgarian archeologist Prof. Nikolay Ovcharov.. Neolithic Rock sanctuary in Bulgaria. The earliest traces of human civilisation discovered so far at Perperikon were dated to the late Neolithic Period, 6th-5th millennium BCE. During the late Bronze Age in particular, 18th-12th century BCE, Perperikon saw its first heyday, which probably coincided with the peak of the Mycenaean and the Minoan civilisations.
