What reading level is Stonehenge And Other British Stone Monuments Astronomically Considered book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CHAPTER XXV THE MERRY MAIDENS CIRCLE (lAT. 50*" 4' N.) One of the best preserved circles that I know of is near Penzance. It is called the Merry Maidens ^ (Dawns- Maen), and is thus described by Lukis^ (p. 1) : — "This very perfect Circle, which is 75 feet 8 inches in diameter, stands in a cultivated field which slopes gently to the south.
**It consists of 19 granite stones placed at tolerably regular distances from each other, but there is a gap on the east side, where another stone was most p...robably once erected.
"Many of the stones are rectangular in plan at the ground level, vary from 3 feet 3 inches to 4 feet in height, and are separated by a space of from 10 to 12 ^ I may here remark that " 9 maidens " is very common as a name for a circle in Cornwall. It is a short title for 1 9 maidens. Lukis implies that Dawns-Maen once consisted of 20 stones. If all the circles followed suit it would be interesting to note if the present number of 1 9 is always associated with a gap on the eastern side.
