EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Alfred Watkins' seminal work, "The Old Straight Track," published in 1925. The photograph, located in the pages of this groundbreaking book, showcases an intriguing illustration of Ley lines in the historic city of Bristol, England. Ley lines, also known as "leyways" or "druid paths," are alignments of ancient sites, often consisting of megaliths, standing stones, and other landmarks, believed to have spiritual or mystical significance. Watkins, a British antiquarian and self-taught archaeologist, was one of the first individuals to identify and document these alignments, proposing that they were used by our ancestors for various purposes, including religious and ceremonial activities. In "The Old Straight Track," he presented his theory and provided numerous examples of Ley lines across the British Isles. The illustration in this photograph highlights several Ley lines converging in the city of Bristol. The lines are depicted connecting various landmarks, such as the Avon River, St. Augustine's Abbey, and the Temple Church. The intricate pattern of the lines adds to the mystique and allure of this ancient concept, which continues to fascinate scholars, historians, and enthusiasts alike. Bristol, with its rich history and numerous ancient sites, is an ideal location to study Ley lines. The city's layout, with its winding streets and historic landmarks, provides a unique perspective on the alignments and their potential significance. This image serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of Watkins' work and the ongoing fascination with the ancient knowledge and practices that continue to shape our understanding of the past.
