deep within Bruniquel Cave in south-west France are these weird rings of stacked-up stalagmites. turns out they're 176,000 years old! Neanderthals were the only humans living there at the time, so they must have built it... but why? the cave is too deep for natural light so you wouldn't want to actually live there. maybe there's some practical purpose we've yet to fathom... or maybe it has spiritual significance?? who's to say? that is the beauty and tragedy in such things, we can never know for sure

every time we find some megalith like this it's almost always just a 'fence', this was probably for keeping animals

Neanderthals were cultured souls but homo-sapiens wiped them out because all nature cares about is raping and killing.

Could these have been built by visitors from another world? Ancient Astronaut theorists say yes.

comparing neanderthals to the french is pretty insulting

Maybe there was a flood into the cave and the water knocked over all the rocks and pushed them into a pile?
