The discovery of two neolithic stone circles on Dartmoor strengthens the theory of a sacred arc of monuments built in the wild Devon uplands.
Endacott's discoveries challenge perceptions of ancient connectivity, suggesting that Neolithic people moved widely, possibly even to renowned sites like Stonehenge and Orkney.
Endacott named one site the Metheral circle. Its 20 stones form a circle indicative of a Neolithic henge monument, similar to others in Britain.
The team faced harsh weather, but Endacott noted that to find new circles, one must venture off the beaten path, illustrating the dedication of his work.
