New light on the stone alignments in the Carnac region

The enigmatic stone alignments in the Carnac region of Brittany, France, are among the most famous megalithic monuments in Europe - alongside Stonehenge, Menga, and the megalithic temples of Malta.

For the first time, it has now been possible to date parts of these alignments with a higher precision and gain new insights into their function.

This breakthrough results from a French-Swedish collaboration within the framework of the ERC-funded research project NEOSEA, led by the University of Gothenburg in partnership with the French excavation company Archeodunum and the University of Nantes.

"The alignments in the Carnac region now appear to be among the earliest megalithic monuments in Europe, with this section constructed between 4600 and 4300 cal BC. We have also confirmed the Bay of Morbihan as the earliest megalithic region in Europe," says archaeologist Bettina Schulz Paulsson at the University of Gothenburg, who leads the NEOSEA project and is one of the researchers behind the new study published in Antiquity.

More than 3,000 standing stones stretch over 10 km in the region, from Carnac/La Trinité-sur-Mer to Erdeven, forming a unique concentration of megalithic alignments in a coastal landscape...<<<Read More>>>...

Silent Change

 We all see things about ourselves, our relationships, and our world that we want to change. Often, this desire leads us to take action toward inner work that we need to do or toward some external goal. Sometimes, without any big announcement or momentous shift, we wake up to find that change has happened, seemingly without us. This can feel like a miracle, as we suddenly see that our self-esteem really does seem to be intact, or our partner actually is helping out around the house more. We may even wonder whether all of our hard work had anything to do with it, or if it just happened by way of grace.

As humans, sometimes we have relatively short attention spans, and we can easily lose track of time. We may worry about a seedling in a pot with our constant attention, watering it for several weeks only to find ourselves enjoying the blooms it offers and wondering when that happened and how we didn’t notice it. Nature, on the other hand, has infinite patience and stays with a thing all the way through its life. This doesn’t mean that our efforts play no part in the miracle of change — they do. It’s just that they are one small part of the picture that finally results in the flowering of a plant, the shifting of a relationship, or the softening of our hearts.

The same laws that govern the growth of plants oversee our own internal and external changes. We observe, consider, work, and wonder, tilling the soil of our lives, planting seeds, and tending them. Sometimes the hard part is knowing when to stop and let go, handing it over to the universe. Usually this happens by way of distraction or disruption. Our attention is called away to other more pressing concerns. And it is often at these times, when we are not looking, in the silence of nature’s embrace, that the miracle of change happens.
