The Antiquarian Society
We believe that ancient sites offer a wealth of prehistoric wisdom and science, and as such are of great importance to all of us in the world today, and future generations.

We cannot afford to lose our great, or even lesser known, ancient wonders, and they must be protected at all costs.

The Antiquarian Society was founded by Stuart Mason when he found two maps, both manufactured by the same company, but printed 20 years apart.

As well as the obvious cartographical changes (new roads, estates etc.) one would expect, Stuart also noticed on these maps, bands of public Sussex green belt down land that had remained undeveloped.

However, on the earlier map the sites of tumuli (ancient burial mounds) appeared, whereas on the present day map these sites had been omitted.

With no obvious reason for this anomaly, the obvious questions arose: how many more sites of antiquity were simply disappearing from the records? And how could these sites survive if knowledge of their very existence was slowly disappearing?

Stuart set out to investigate the existence of the tumuli noted on the older map and found that some of the sites were actually still where the map said they were, but that some had unfortunately been obliterated by the farmers plough.

And so The Antiquarian Society was born with a purpose and determination to rediscover and chart these sites, and to watch and document the practices of farmers and developers, ultimately obliging them to think twice before they plough through 4000 year old burial mounds while they think no-one is looking.

These ancient sites are our inheritance, and it is up to us to ensure that we can pass them on to our children, that we may share them and experience with friends and family.

The Antiquarian Society are asking you to join us in the countryside, finding, documenting and protecting what is left.

The Antiquarian Society will…

Discover, record, and observe astronomical -alignments at ancient sites.

Encourage the observance of such phenomena and offer explanations on how the celestial bodies interact with the earth.

Give talks about sites we have decoded and observered

Create a network of like minded Antiquarians interested pursuing astro-archaeology, alignments, some of who may assist with accommodation and local knowledge for Antiquarian Society members.

Protect ancient archaeological sites, around the world.

Add new sites to a database of all known astro-archeological events around the world.

Create a record of present day ceremonies at these sites for future generations.

Assume a responsibility to check cartography for discrepancies between old and new maps, in order to ascertain whether ancient sites are being omitted for the sake of modern day development or whether they are being destroyed by the farmers plough.

Ensure the site is clean and free from litter.

Raise awareness about saving the megalithic cultural remains for the sake of future generations.
