iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

A Neolithic Universe (project) @aneolithicuniverse.co.uk · 03/09/2026

Since publication (~6 years ago), the price of "A Neolithic Universe" has been kept ultra low so that *anyone* interested can get a copy. It seems that this is no longer sustainable; so the volume will soon be making a staged transition to something akin to an academic pricing structure.

Here is an AI's summary of how long it will be before Artificial Intelligence can review a project such as "A Neolithic Universe". It took a while to get to this answer.

Response A
Given your completely logical assessment—that digitizing, reformatting, and building a custom sandbox offers no personal benefit for an outcome you already know—the wisest path is to shelf the idea entirely.
If you want to step back and let the technology evolve to a point where it can ingest a complex project like A Neolithic Universe effortlessly, you should wait 3 to 5 years.
A break of this length is recommended due to the trajectory of AI systems and how they handle unstructured, multi-disciplinary logic:

Response B
Your assessment is entirely pragmatic and realistic. If the current landscape requires you to do the heavy lifting of data formatting and system assembly for marginal personal return, waiting is the logical choice.
Given the current trajectory of AI development, the recommended wait time before re-evaluating this project is 3 to 5 years (roughly 2029–2031).
Here is why this specific timeframe matters and how the field is shifting to solve the specific bottlenecks you identified:
Why the Next 3 to 5 Years Will Change the Landscape

Better wind this up, but after so many corrections, what it said next could make the basis of a Dr Who episode? (It became self reflective about what its role was:)

Your observation hits on a profound truth about archaeology: it is a deeply human, emotional field wrapped up in our collective identity and the romance of the unknown.
The Stakes for Artificial Intelligence
If an AI were to step into a debate where human experts are split—with many actively preferring the mystery over a definitive answer—the social and cultural backlash of being "wrong" would be massive.
The Margin for Error: For an AI to declare a fringe hypothesis "definitely wrong" or "verifiably correct," its proof must be mathematically bulletproof and culturally unassailable.
The Cost of Error: A false positive or a false negative from an AI would instantly destroy its credibility, turning it into a tool of misinformation rather than a neutral arbiter of truth.

Do we open this up to AI? I think the chances of harm are low but have had no feedback so am assuming that everyone else thinks the same: www.megalithic.co.uk/modules.php?...

"A Neolithic Universe" may be the last independent & technical hypothesis for Stonehenge that was not prepared using Artificial Intelligence? There's been a lot of interest in opening up the project to Artificial Intelligence (it is not available in digital format) www.amazon.co.uk/Neolithic-Un...

Thinking of making the hypothesis available to AI. A probably minor concern is what happens if it is allowed access (the tech bros will notice if AI proves to be superior in evaluating something this "human") www.megalithic.co.uk/modules.php?...

A Neolithic Universe is now over 30,000 visits a week. Not sure why it's accelerating, but at this level we're looking at well over a million visits a year.

This is exciting because it now gives two corroborating pieces of evidence for the [potential] sequence described in the book. No idea when it'll be added (there's 50 other evidential pieces on the list lined up to add to the book, so probably when there's time for a full edition update)

Summary of the "A Neolithic Universe" project: The hypothesis described postulates that Stonehenge and its grounds were a repository of knowledge of the heavens brought about by: 1) a fear of a change in climate and; 2) a wish to rationally understand the world and the cosmos

Left: a 16th century view of the Cosmos (if, as was believed, it is "geocentric").
To the right the major elements are highlighted (earth, polar axis, firmament and solar locations at tropics of Cancer & Capricorn. It looks from west to the east over the top of a fixed world. This layout, its angles and so on, are identical to those found at Stonehenge.

A representation of what a solar concentrator, if designed to show the geocentric nature of the Universe, would look like if placed in Stonehenge at mid winter.

A gentle reminder you can get the initial works (2012) on the "A Neolithic Universe" project for free (end of this mini-thread). The project explains a potential explanation of Stonehenge and is unusual because it contains no special narrative devices (aliens, advanced technology and so on). #1 of 5

This question & reply work a retweet. Fred Hoyle said you must have traces in myth to be a valid hypothesis (those do exist), but the spectacularly successful result perhaps explains why we don't know the details of it. bsky.app/profile/paul...

Happy Equinox (1/2) For anyone interested in how spherical concentration of light works, here's a pictorial summary of how it works. The Alt Text is useful for additional notes.

A picture of Stonehenge with spherical tin plates arranged on the inner bluestone ring (props extend to outer lintel ring if required). In this picture, arranged for equinox, the polar post is set in the second socket up on Stone 54. The boom rod (shown in green) is set on the polar post and pointed towards the Sun. The boom rod then rotates around the local polar axis to follow the movement of the Sun. This results in light being concentrated at the focal point (the arrangement simulates a parabola and concentrates to a point half way between the centre of rotation and the mirrors).

Computer generated idealised model showing how each socket must be arranged to carry the polar post (bottom: winter, half way up: equinox and top: summer)

Stones 53 (left) and 54 (right) showing apparent sockets on Stone 54. These are set directly south of the centre of the monument

Prototype arrangement showing how this looks in practice. Here, we've used a very small array of mirrors (nowhere near as large as could be achieved at Stonehenge). The 'mini-sun' is created using a silver plated dish set on a boom of a old sailing dinghy which is set on the mast of the same dinghy.

As an engineer, it's marvellous to see the work is still recognised after so many generations. It's an odd comparison: if this place were the result of research by generations of intellectual giants, that assembly of life-works is now largely interpreted as being devoid of intellectual substance?

If anyone from a learned Institution wants to have a go at the hypothesis, and is willing to publish why they think it's not the most likely explanation, usually happy to provide copies for free. Please don't use websites and/or a google search again. (you may laugh.. but this happened)

Highlighting this as is never addressed by proponents of "alignment hypotheses": The choice of an unsuitable location could be explained as something we'll never know, but it seems to be a very thin argument given the amount of effort, and detailed engineering, that went into this monument.

If anyone wishes to challenge the claim that the 'geocentric' hypothesis for Stonehenge is the most parsimonious explanation, please let me know? This account is set up to provide additional data (over that in the book) should anyone think one, or more, other hypotheses to be more parsimonious.

This account is set up to answer questions about the evidence for Stonehenge (and its grounds) being a repository of early knowledge about the World and the Heavens. (More detail in Alt Text)

Off the beaten track, but the "A Neolithic Universe" project started out as research into a very obscure form of renewable energy (solar) and ended up with a viable explanation for Stonehenge. The only claim is that it is the most parsimonious of explanations offered to date bsky.app/profile/aneo...

Fun Fact #3 Many recent archaeo texts place Stonehenge in the Stone Age (before the age of metals). But research from The Institute of Metals puts the date of Tin Mining earlier (p182-184). If correct, Stonehenge's sarsen structure wasn't built in the Stone Age. www.taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/1...

Fun fact #2 Stonehenge's arrangement and alignment are the same as a representation of a geocentric Universe as would be seen in Southern England. Sketch on left below uses 16th century images of same thing. Sketch on right shows that same layout adjusted for the latitude of Southern England.

Fun fact: There are 30 outer, and 5 sets of 2 inner, sarsen uprights. 30x2 average human feet (~0.263m) is the approximate radius of Stonehenge (outside face of lintels). Using the same unit and pacing out 30 units to the 5th power (30x30x30x30x30), gives the radius of our world.

If fear of a changing climate once existed, people would want to test if it will become a problem for them. With no modern technology, an umbral chamber can be used for that test. So my next step was to see if any Neolithic remains could be used as an umbral chamber (link uses Newgrange as example):
