And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Wander in there at 3am on a foggy night and see what happens
Maes Howe, the largest burial mound or cairn tomb in Orkney, Scotland, is aligned in such a way that it receives the rays of the setting sun on the night of the winter solstice. Building Maeshowe was a huge undertaking. A circular platform about 38 meters in diameter was cleared and leveled. It consists of an entrance passage, main hall and side chambers. This is the best chambered cairn in northwestern Europe and is believed to have been built around 2700 BC. C., which makes it older than Stonehenge and the pyramids of Egypt.
