The widely-promoted idea that our Northern European ancestors were ignorant barbarian savages whilst “civilization” was founded in the Middle East took another devastating knock on Monday 15th July when a team of archaeologists from Birmingham University revealed they had found a 10,000-year-old sophisticated lunar calendar in a field in Scotland.
In Warren Field, by Crathes Castle in Aberdeenshire, the scientists found 12 carefully-sited pits, mimicking the phases of the moon and aligned with the lunar calendar over the year. There was also an alignment with the Midwinter sunrise to provide an annual astronomical datum point so the calendar could be kept accurate. The site was first spotted from the air as a series of peculiar crop markings on a survey by the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland (RCAHMS).
The man who led the project, Vince Gaffney, Professor of Landscape Archaeology at Birmingham observed: “The evidence suggests that hunter-gatherer societies in Scotland had both the need and sophistication to track time across the years, to correct for seasonal drift of the lunar year and that this occurred nearly 5,000 years before the first formal calendars known in the Near East.”
Local expert Dr Richard Bates of the University of St Andrews said the discovery provided “exciting new evidence” about early Mesolithic Scotland. He went on “This is the earliest example of such a structure and there is no known comparable site in Britain or Europe for several thousands of years after the monument at Warren Field was constructed.”
Yet again multiracialist propaganda ascribing all cultural advances to places as far South and East of Europe as possible is undermined. It is clear that the roots of the sophisticated indigenous North-West European civilization that reached its flowering at Stonehenge before ever the first Pyramids were erected go back many thousands of years earlier.
We should take pride in such achievements of our ancestors. It is our duty to build upon them. Ten thousand years ago the ancestors of today’s White Europeans sought to fathom the secrets of the stars. In the centuries and millennia to come, their descendants and ours must go to them. No smaller stage is worthy of the Destiny of the Race.

Extraordinary that this structure, and the sophisticated calculations on which it is based, should be so ancient.
“In the centuries and millennia to come their descendants and ours must go to them. No smaller stage is worthy of the Destiny of the Race”. True, but this can happen only if the gene pool is kept free from non-European contamination, and that in turn can happen only if our societies are freed from the death-grip of liberalism. (I think it was the late Malcolm Muggeridge who once described liberalism as “a collective death wish”)

Very interesting. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

It’s amazing just how many outrageous lies about white European history have been promulgated by the mainstream media, in particular Jewish owned publishing houses, over the years. The Druids, for example, have often been depicted as hooded fiends who practiced human sacrifice, when in reality they were very civilized people who built great institutions of learning that were the envy of the world at that time. Even Roman emperors were impressed by the quality and depth of instruction offered by the Druids.

I agree, but Druids have also been denigrated by Christian owned publishing houses also.

Jews are not solely to blame for the ‘bad press’ that Pagan practitioners have suffered over the centuries.
