Who Built The Stones?

[Boreades]

Did we ever find a convincing reason for the similar names?

Carnac in Brittany.
Karnak in Egypt.

This was first put forward by me (as far as I know) on the grounds that the buildings were so obviously halls of residence --identical, each with twin beds and a desk. I admit though I didn't spot the party-piece angle. Nor do I now since 'student stuff' is shoved in the bin after, not used to adorn the campus for evermore. The students though were using the stones as part of their course work.

Identical places of residence are also known as housing estates. Presumably the people who actually knew what they were doing had to be housed.

[Mick Harper]

No, people who know what they are doing demand individualised housing to reflect their status. Though it may be that the Mesolithic cramped their style. You just can't get the stone.
