Product Overview
Keith Critchlow, an internationally-renowned scholar, has studied a wide range of Neolithic artifacts. In Time Stands Still, he adopts a technique of cross-cultural comparison to uncover some previously unknown characteristics of the Neolithic peoples.
Critchlow uses ancient manuals on temple building from Indian Vedic sources, for example, and applies them to British sites, with fascinating results. He examines Chinese pictographs for evidence of sighting instruments and scientific tools. And, perhaps most significantly, he offers evidence that carved stone spheres having regular mathematical symmetries in Scotland predate Plato's writings on geometric figures by more than a thousand years.
The findings contained in this remarkable and groundbreaking book will awaken a renewed sense of wonder for our ancient human past.
