Megalithic Monuments – Nomads

Megalithic Monuments – Nomads

Megalithic Monuments – Nomads is an astounding article about cultural achievements of the early nomads in two Global Villages.  Recently we posted a “megalith” quiz about Stonehenge. These are more megaliths carved 3,000 years ago.  They were found in the bordering Global Villages of Sino-Japanese (Mongolia) and Slavic (Southern Siberia).

These megalithic monuments are called Deer Stones. Follow the link below to view these stunning monuments created by a nomadic culture.
