Archaeologists announced the discovery in an infant's grave near Stonehenge of a carved stone pig. They belief that the 2.5-inch figurine, which dates back more than 2,000 years, is either a toy or a memorial/funerary object for the baby's death.
Why is no one discussing the most obvious explanation: that it was actually supposed to be a 2.5 foot-tall altar in the shape of a pig, but the stonecarver screwed up the diagram?
