Modern SitesA small stone labyrinth on Bryher, one of the Isles of Scilly. Created in the 1990s, the labyrinth is formed from rounded rocks gathered from the adjacent storm beach and is 5.0 metres in diameter, with two larger rocks placed at the entrance. The design is basically a spiral with five circuits, but with several choices and switch-backs that increase its complexity and make it a simple maze rather than a true labyrinth.

Roman, Greek and ClassicalThe second largest Roman olive oil mill in the entire Roman Empire and the largest in Tunisia, dating to the 2nd century CE. The site is famous for the Latin inscription 'CIL VIII, 1193 and 2358', transcribing a senatus consultum from 138 CE that authorised the organisation of a bimonthly market - exceptional documentary evidence for the rural economy of Roman North Africa.

Mesolithic, Palaeolithic and EarlierA large sandstone rock shelter near Berdorf in the Mullerthal region of eastern Luxembourg, part of a dramatic landscape of towering sandstone cliffs and narrow gorges known locally as Luxembourg's "Little Switzerland". The Mullerthal sandstone formations created natural shelters that attracted human settlement from the Mesolithic onwards.

Neolithic and Bronze AgeA stone circle on Mull set in a natural amphitheatre formed by the surrounding hills - a magical place. The 13.4m diameter circle originally consisted of 9 stones, one of which has disappeared and been replaced with a small boulder. The stones range in height from 1.2m to 2m and have flat faces faced inwards. There are 3 outliers, the nearest of which is 0.85m high and lies just to the SE, the tallest 2.7m to the SW.

Neolithic and Bronze AgeA Neolithic stone axe quarry on Lambay Island, a small island 4 km off the north Dublin coast, east of Rush. Stone from the island's porphyritic andesite (Lambay Porphyry) outcrops was quarried and worked into polished stone axes from the early Neolithic onwards. Lambay axes have been found at sites across eastern Ireland. The only Neolithic stone axe quarry in Ireland with evidence for all stages of production, from quarrying to final polishing. The island setting meant all raw material had to be transported to the mainland by boat, indicating the value placed on this particular stone source and the maritime capabilities of Neolithic communities in the Irish Sea.

Neolithic and Bronze AgeOne of the smallest Penwith chambered tombs. Only 3 of the 4 support stones remain so the 2.9m square capstone has slipped and leans against the 3m x 1.7m x 1.7m high chamber. Similar to Chûn Quoit but sadly not as well preserved. The capstone has fallen and now leans on the two remaining uprights. There is a possible cup mark on the capstone.

Neolithic and Bronze AgeAt a prominent height in an area of gravel eskers. A shallow forecourt at the eastern end opens between tall portal stones into a two-segment burial gallery. One huge slipped capstone survives. The gallery is surrounded by a rectangular cairn, approx. 30m long x 15m wide. The gallery is 2.25m wide. In the rear of the cairn are two lateral chambers, originally reached between portals tones from the long sides of the cairn.

Multi-periodA state-run historic site on New Mexico State Road 4 in Jemez Springs, New Mexico. It preserves the archaeological remains of the 14th-century Native American Gíusewa Pueblo, which had an estimated 200 rooms in five blocks, including two kivas (one pictured here); and a 17th-century Spanish colonial mission church.

Neolithic and Bronze AgeIn a lovely location overlooking Kames bay and the mainland hills, but positioned so there are also views of North Arran. It's hard to get photos of the stones as the cairn is covered in gorse. A short but stiff hike up the hill from the road layby.

Early MedievalWith its early origins, we hunted around for any signs of a preaching cross, and whilst there were odd rectangular, worked sandstone blocks around the churchyard, I (Anne T) spotted this limestone Anglo Saxon cross base. A very pleasant location, and interesting to look around. More photos from the church, including Roman pottery, on our page

Neolithic and Bronze AgeA barrow 25 metres long by up to 12 metres across and 0.3 metres high. The barrow is aligned roughly southwest to northeast about 70 metres north of Uffington Castle. The long barrow also seems to be the focal point of a later Romano-British inhumation cemetery.

Pre-ColumbianThis Mississippian era village site in Cross County is an Arkansas State Park. The site includes a platform mound close on the river. Interpretation is provided by a museum and visitor center (see photos). It is highly likely that this is the village Hernando de Soto visited in 1541 and was described by his party as "Casqui".
