Touching the Dnipro Cromlech

“The first time I went to that uncovered rondel in Dnipro, touching its stones felt like caressing the Delphic Omphalos; the navel of ancient Greece. In fact, it was much older than any material reminder we have of the oracle at Greece’s cultic centre. The Dnipro cromlech had already been buried for a millennium when Stonehenge was being assembled.”
