PREHISTORIC RITUAL BURNING: Was it a religious practice?

The Prehistory Guys

This is a special YouTube edition of our weekly audio only Patreon exclusive podcast, the ‘Monday Moot’. However, as it’s a special occasion (the 50th Monday Moot!) we thought we’d share a YouTube version of the recording so you can get a little flavour of some of the exclusive content available to our Patreon supporters.

Yes - it’s a shameless excuse for a plug of course, and we hope you’ll check out the link below to see what else goes on when you support the enterprise by becoming a Prehistory Guys patron.

OK - we know - here we go talking about ritual again! We promise to try and not be so predictable in the future but in the meantime, bear with us as we turn our laser like beam to the topic of burning. Inspired by this article about the Arminghall Henge in Norfolk (what is Rupert on about ... Norwich is in Norfolk ... am I missing something? You'll see what I mean), https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-63242326 we take to task some of the assumptions made about the occasional association of evidence of burning with ancient monuments.
