Five and half thousand years ago, Causewayed counties, like Crickley Hill and Robinhoods Bowl, were abandoned. Their decline signaled the end of large-scale hostilities 1 in ancient Britain. In the relative peace that followed, monument construction in the Stonehenge landscape began once more. With digging of huge oval ditches, the largest of which is the Greater Curses. -The largest monument in this landscape is undoubtedly 2 the Greater Curses. It's h* the Curses has been very, very difficult. It's only when he starts finding more detail about the architecture that he starts to get a better understanding of what is essentially 3 a very, very big long banked ditch.
Over two and half kilometers long, the Curses represented a new scale of ambition for ancient engineering. It required a huge area to be cleared, before 20,000 tons of chalk were excavated 4 to form an immense ditch. To meet these new ambitions, the builders needed tools on a previously 5 unheard of scale, in particular flint axes.
