The Ancient Gods of the Stone Age.

Pointe de Brezellec.

Ces pierres qui semblent s’affronter dans le cadre grandiose qui domine l’océan ne sont pas des artéfacts.
Toutefois je me demande parfois si les anciennes tribus qui occupaient les côtes bretonnes 5000 ans avant J-C. ne se sont pas inspirés de ces rocs aux formes anthropomorphiques pour élever à leurs dieux dolmens, menhirs et cromlechs.

Dieux des Mégalithes et des Fureurs Océanes...


These stones which seem to be face-to-face in the beautiful site which dominates the ocean are not artefacts.
However I sometimes wonder if the former tribes which occupied the Breton coast 5000 years before J-C. were not inspired by these rocks with anthropomorphic forms to raise to their gods the standing stones.

Gods of Megaliths and of the Ocean Furies ...

Superstitious and imagination can foster all kinds of ideas that then become folk lore.

The stones seem to be guarding against bad things coming from across the sea. V

certainly fascinating stones...interesting theory you suggest...perhaps sites like Carnac were inspired by such natural formations....admire your strong composition here..
