Rough Stone Monuments And Their Builders by T. Eric Peet is a comprehensive investigation into the ancient megalithic structures found throughout the world. The book explores the origins, construction, and purpose of these rough stone monuments, including Stonehenge, the dolmens of Europe, and the standing stones of prehistoric cultures. Peet examines the various theories and hypotheses that have been proposed to explain the purpose and function of these structures, including their use as astronomical observatories, religious temples, and burial sites. The author also delves into the techniques and tools used by ancient builders to construct these impressive structures, such as the use of levers, pulleys, and ropes. With detailed illustrations and photographs, Rough Stone Monuments And Their Builders provides a fascinating glimpse into the mysteries of these ancient monuments and the cultures that created them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
