This elm leaf is 6000 years old, and can be seen at the astonishing World of Stonehenge exhibition at the @britishmuseum. It is one of many incredible objects that help explain the context of why our early farming ancestors were inspired to build & reshape monuments and ritual sites such as the famous Henge over thousands of years, as part of a collective sun worship. It’s quite an emotional exhibition - a real love letter to the past - I’d hugely recommend it if you even have a passing interest in ‘old stones’ . #megalithicmarvels #megalithic #oldstones #stonehenge #worldofstonehenge (at British Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcVuVtGoF9G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
