This violent change of reign thus resembled most of those that characterized the Military Anarchy period of the Roman Empire during the third century.

  7. Fairy Rings, Stonehenge and Gravity Vortices

         I think that Fairy rings are circular patterns in grass formed by an altered rate of growth around the circumferance of each  feature, that creates  the shape of a letter "o" in the meadows and  fields all around the globe. Sometimes the grass along the circumferance is longer than the grass inside the circle and sometimes it is shorter but in both cases a circular shape is left in the field.  Closer observation can reveal the presence of mushrooms (fungus) dotted all around the circles edge with no outcrops occurring either inside or outside  of the shape.

    The nomadic musician looked fondly upon the latest of the completed instruments – a mouth harp carefully crafted by splintering the rib of a cow, or was it a horse? No matter, the sound it made when it was plucked was beautiful – somewhat similar to a flute. Three more of the instruments lay on the bench unfinished…a state they would retain for the next 1,700 years.
