Cyclops Christianus: Or an Argument to Disprove the Supposed Antiquity of the Stonehenge and Other Megalithic Erections (1849)

Cyclops Christianus is a book written by Algernon Herbert in 1849. The book presents an argument against the supposed antiquity of Stonehenge and other megalithic structures. Herbert argues that these structures were not built by ancient civilizations, but rather by Christian monks during the Middle Ages. He supports his argument with historical and archaeological evidence, including the absence of any written records or artifacts from the supposed ancient builders. The book also explores the significance of these structures in Christian symbolism and their role in medieval Christian culture. Overall, Cyclops Christianus is an intriguing exploration of the origins and meaning of Stonehenge and other megalithic structures, challenging conventional beliefs about their history and purpose.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
