Stones -- The Stones Mailing List

 

About Stones

The Stones Mailing List came into being at the end of September / beginning of
October 1997 as a facility for a small number of people to take part in a
broad and open conversation regarding anything that relates to "ancient
sites". There were various archaeological mailing lists and news groups in
existence, but nothing that reflected the informal and open style of
discussion that was envisaged by the mailing list creator, Chris Tweed.
The list has grown steadily over the years and has attracted a
knowledgeable and devoted membership. Various list members
organise occasional "meets" which typically involve site visits.

The term "ancient sites" in the above context covers any type of
archaeological site from stone circles and burial mounds to brochs and hill
forts, pyramids and Nasca lines! The discussion is not limited to sites within
the British Isles, although it is likely that correspondence will concentrate
upon these sites for much of the time.

Also included are those phenomena that do not necessarily have a substantive
physical presence, for example leys and dowsing. These are included because
they are often relevant to the main topic of discussion.
