(54 posts)Hi!!!
In the video "Time Team S20 special - britains stone age tsunami " (in the message no.7 in this web sent from me the 08.04.2016), at the beggining of it, the man talks about a sunami that took place around 8.000 years ago. The time he's talking about it's the same you speak about in your message "38. SCIENTISTS FIND NEW EVIDENCE OF LAND-SPLITTING TSUNAMI 8,150 YEARS AGO OFF ENGLAND'S COAST".
Then, I think, you had enough information to calculate (in order to become olders than we think) the ages of the neolithic remains in Orkney. And, consequently (according to my theory) the Ring of Brodgar is older than we think and Stonehenge, too (and other Neolithic remains, too). I refer to those monuments because they are the most famous ones and because I have read that, maybe, Ring of Brodgar builders showed to Stonehenge builders how to do the ring (I saw a documentary speaking about the relationship between Orkney and Stonehenge).
Maybe, that sunami was the same that "obligate" to abandon Skara Brae. Then, Skare Brae can be older than we think.
I beg your pardon if I think about situations impossible to be done. My imagination is very productive. And, I refers only to Orkney because it's the only place I know of that zone and I don't know about nothing else about it. I'm in love with that place. As I say for myself, "I'm an Orcadian born in Catalonia".
