Quote:Not only that, but this underwater creation is around 5,000 years older than its British counterpart.
The site was discovered in 2007 by a team of archaeologists led by Mark Holley, a professor of underwater archaeology at Northwestern Michigan College.
Holley and his colleagues were conducting a survey of the lake bed when they chanced upon a series of large stones, arranged in a circular pattern, just off the coast of Traverse City, Michigan.
Holley later admitted that the discovery, made at a depth of about 40 feet (12.1m), was completely unexpected, and that he and his team were initially unsure of what they’d found.
However, analysis soon suggested that the stones – some of which weighed up to 3,000lbs (around 1,360kg) – had deliberately been arranged in a circular pattern by humans, Mediumreports.
This pattern is about 40 feet in diameter and features an inner circle of stones measuring around 20 feet in diameter.
The stones, which are all made of granite – found locally in the area – are estimated to be around 10,000 years old, thereby making the formation one of the oldest ever discovered in North America.
Holley pointed out that the area was not underwater 10,000 years ago, and that communities had, indeed, settled on the exact spot where the stones had been laid.
These revealed carvings and engravings on some of the stones, including an image of what appears to be a Mastodon.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups
Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!
