A) No center pivot post hole.
B) No capacity for the work involved.
C) The drag stones, if used, would be too small to have enough weight to actually work efficiently..
D) who, or what, would use the excavated outer wear paths?
E) Notice the postholes for erecting a roof. The rings were prob for seating comfortably.

)mules or burros so there wouldn't have been a need for a center post to keep them and the drag stones on track.Not sure that a pre-columbian arrastra should be identical to a spanish one anyway,other than being round so as to keep whatever is being reduced to powder in a confined area.Since we do know that foodstuffs were commonly pounded and ground in this kind of rock and in the same kind of holes that pepper this area,can we assume that the grooves themselves are the result of grinding something requiring more effort? I would also think that one or two humans could not drag stones of the size that were commonly used where draft animals were available.Cubfan64 said:



How was I to know where it came from?
Do it this way: [gold vein 20% photo] and it's the first thing on the page.

I am talking about Stone maps and lost gold mines and you guys are all worried about a simple photo. You guys gotta lighten up some.
