105150 [4000 1500 BC] (公元前4000年—前1500年)
105151 [40] We will discuss these barrows further in Chapter 7. (20)我们会在本书第七章深入讨论这些墓葬。
105152 [41] This would explain why earlier Mesolithic sacred landscapes continued to be important into Neolithic times. (1)这就解释了为什么早先中石器时代的神圣景观在新石器时代依然保持了其重要性。
105153 [42] Layers where soils were able to form are infrequent, as are places where the sides of the ditch have washed in. (2)由泥土构成的层位并不多见,往往由沟渠两侧的泥土被冲刷进来而形成。
105155 [44] One set of posts traverse the main entranceway in four or five slightly haphazard rows, which might have included two deliberately restricted entranceways. (4)根据柱洞可以看出,有一些柱子曾散乱地竖立在主入口处,可以分为四五行,其中两个柱子有意限制了主入口。
105156 [45] The soil filling the post-holes did not contain fragments chipped off the later stones during their shaping, as were found in the holes that held the upright stones. This suggests that the posts pre-date the main use of the site. (5)和用来支撑直立巨石的洞不同,这些柱洞的填土中没有发现任何打磨巨石留下的碎片,这也表明这些柱子应该早于巨石阵的使用年代。
105157 [46] It was a large post, although not quite as substantial as the Mesolithic pines in the car park (Chapter 2). (6)虽然不及停车场区域的中石器时代松柱(见第一章),但这根柱子的体量依然不可小觑。
105158 [47] The Passageway is, however, clearly lined up on the southern entranceway. The size and position of the Stonehenge Passageway is quite closely matched by a timber 'gateway', which is also aligned on an entranceway, at Etton. (7)显然“通道”沿着南侧的入口排列成行,体量和位置同埃顿地区入口处排列的木质通道十分相似。
105159 [48] Stone and wooden entrance structures are known at other causewayed enclosures. Maybe the Stonehenge Passageway is a later variant of an already well-established tradition. (8)在其他堤道围场也发现了石质或木质的入口结构,也许巨石阵的通道是早期传统的一种演变。
105160 [49] If the ditch segments at causewayed enclosures were indeed controlled by different families or kin groups, as seems most probable, then the small pits with offerings represent significant events in the lives of individual members of that kin group. (9)如果按照最合理的猜测来分析,即这些堤道围场的小段沟渠由不同的家庭或家族群体掌控,那么这些填满了献祭品的灰坑应该代表了家族群体里各个成员生活中的重要事件。
