MEGALITHOMANIA, 23rd - 24th MAY 2009
Robin Heath gave a guided tour of Stonehenge on the Friday, before the conference kicked in to two days of intensive Megalithomania activity. John Michell had unfortunately passed a month previously, so the theme of the event drifted into looking at his life work, and John Martineau hosted a touching tribute to the great visionary. Robin Williamson, gave an astonishing bardic account of the Tuatha de Danaan and performed an evening concert and Lee and Tim Hooker stunned everyone with their megalithic discoveries in Ukraine. Heath polished off the event with an excellent masterclass of archaeoastronomy at Avebury on the Monday.
