Es ist also großartig, weil du dort eine Stratigraphie von all den verschiedenen Potsdamer-Designern hast. Und du kannst sehen, wie sich die Designs über die Zeit verändern. Das ist unglaublich.

A lot of the other settlements, not Sannau-Median, but many of the other settlements have a kind of a circular pattern to them, with a sort of a central space in the middle, which may be where you've got burials or there's different activities taking place there. You've then got outside that central circular space Dann gibt es eine Residenzzone.

Well, we really do. And in fact, what I love about it, the Japanese name for them is Kanjou Reseki, which means kind of circular shaped or arc shaped arrangements of standing stones.

And there's a special script for those foreign loan words called Katakana. And the other word for stone circle is Storn Sakaru.
