EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures the mesmerizing Halangy Down Ancient Village, nestled in the enchanting Isles of Scilly. The image showcases the remarkable BANTs CARN BURIAL CHAMBER and HALANGY DOWN ANCIENT VILLAGE, offering a glimpse into the rich history of this Bronze Age and Iron Age settlement. The print by Damian Grady unveils an intricate tapestry of ancient ruins that have stood the test of time. From above, we witness a labyrinthine network of stone walls, enclosures, and dwellings that once housed thriving communities thousands of years ago. These remnants serve as silent witnesses to human existence during these prehistoric times. As our eyes traverse over this archaeological marvel, we are transported back in time to an era where life was vastly different from our modern world. It is awe-inspiring to imagine how people lived here centuries ago - their daily routines, customs, and traditions etched into every stone. The beauty lies not only in the physical structures but also in the surrounding landscape. The Isles of Scilly provide a breathtaking backdrop for this ancient village with its rugged cliffs meeting crystal-clear waters below. Damian Grady's expertly captured aerial perspective allows us to appreciate both the grandeur and intricacy of Halangy Down Ancient Village. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that beneath our feet lie countless stories waiting to be unearthed; tales from civilizations long gone but forever imprinted on these sacred grounds.
