What evidence support "Rami" had more experience as an archaeologist than Mike.

• “Ramilisonina (he has one name) is a retired archaeologist who was born in Madagascar and has devoted his life to studying its myths, its history, and the story of its peoples.”

• “Mike was bringing a person who could see the ancient stone circle with fresh eyes?”

• “But in fact he was turning Stonehenge upside down--seeing it exactly the opposite way from what esteemed scholars had been saying for centuries."

• “You build out of stone when you want something that will never fade away.”

• The Druids did not use temples.

• Stonehenge was built 2,000 years after the Druids disappeared. 

• Stonehenge was too old to be built by Druids.
