The Bone House

Recommended Posts

This is my interpretation of an Early Neolithic mortuary structure. The post holes of these structures are often found underneath various types of barrows and cairns, they were likely used for excarnation (where bodies are defleshed) as part of a burial process.

Lovely MOC, great representation of the 'house'. You've done the landscaping really well, and nice use of the caveman too. The pictures are very crisp and well taken; good work.

I like this as well. It's very well balanced, and looks convincing. The construction of the roof is nicely done. :thumbup:

Thanks for the positive comments guys, this went through several revisions before I was content with it. I have a real interest in prehistory, and in particular this period in time, when people moved their subsistence strategy from a 'Gatherer-Hunter' to being a 'Farmer'. I have a few more prehistoric Lego ideas, but its difficult (but good fun trying!) to make them convincing.

This is pretty cool. I like anything bone related. Speaking of bones, the bone the caveman is running away with is HUGE! surely that's not from a person? :tongue:

Nice MOC.
