That IS a coincidence! A report about ancient Armenian site, Carahunge, with many of its stones pierced by 4-5cm holes for possible sun/sky observation, has just appeared in our News items. Could Slab 1's hole be part of a similar early method of studying the skies, as Jack Walker believes?

Sorry - it was in 'latest comments', regarding 'the Armenian Stonehenge', not News items!
