One more large glass of wine left, which I shall sip while reading about Waun Mawn and other megalthic sites.

>Waun Mawn (Welsh for “peat moor”) is a megalithic site in the Preseli Mountains of Pembrokeshire, Wales. Following excavations in 2018, it became the site of a supposed dismantled Neolithic stone circle. The diameter of the postulated circle was estimated to be 110 m (360 ft), making it the fifth largest diameter for a British stone circle, after Avebury (331.6 m (1,088 ft)), Stanton Drew (113 m (371 ft)), Karl Lofts (estimated 122 m (400 ft)), Long Meg (maximum 120 m (390 ft)), and slightly larger than the Ring of Brodgar (104 m (341 ft)).

….Two geological articles published in 2022 proved that there was no link between Waun Mawn and the supposed “bluestone quarries” at Craig Rhosyfelin and Carn Goedog, and no link between Waun Mawn and Stonehenge. In a 2024 study published in The Holocene, Brian John re-examined the geological and archaeological evidence from the site, and concluded that the “lost circle” of standing stones had never existed, and that there was no evidence to demonstrate a link with Stonehenge. He concluded that there had been considerable “interpretative inflation” at the site, driven by a desire to show a Stonehenge connection.
