[Stones] Western Saharan Megaliths

[Ric]

just been looking at some - smaller yet surprisingly similar to - Avebury, stone circles (photos) from the Saharan desert. these circles have dual avenues of stones in the Tanezzuft Valley region, and were constructed at some time between c. 5000-3500 BP and c. 500 BCE – CE 500 
   
  the Sahara had been less arid at this time - it has since dried out more or less completely.
   
  there's more at  -  http://www.ucl.ac.uk/prehistoric/reviews/04_03_lernia.htm
   
  and an interesting web site i just stumbled across at -
