Hey, I've been puzzling over the geometry of those stone circles in the Neolithic sites—do you think they were intentionally laid out on invisible grids, or is it just a coincidence?
Minimal
I’d say the stone circles line up with a regular hexagonal grid—definitely intentional, not random. The symmetry is too precise for coincidence.

That hex pattern you mention is interesting, but I'm always wondering if the stones were moved later—sometimes a handful of misaligned markers can throw the whole grid off. Have you checked the local strata to confirm the original positions?
Minimal
I haven’t examined the strata myself, but the uniform spacing of the stones—every gap is the same to within a few centimetres—makes me lean toward the original placement. A few displaced stones would break the pattern, and we don’t see that. Still, a geologic survey would confirm whether the stones have shifted since the site was first built.

I get why the gaps look so tidy, but remember that even a single stone shifted by a few centimeters can ripple through the pattern—think of a row of dominoes. A quick trench test, or even a portable ground‑penetrating radar run, would give us a baseline to see if the stones really have stayed put since the builders laid them out. It’s a small investment for a big certainty.
Minimal
That makes sense—quick tests would catch any drift. I’d set a strict timeline for the survey so we don’t let a single misaligned stone ruin the whole grid.
