My research into Avebury ancient monument and its links has enableb me to write a booklet describing the link between Avebury's rings of standing stones and the Vikings Creation of the Earth myth: “Creating the World” Recorded in written form about AD 1200 by Snorri Sturluson, an Icelandic chief, the Norse myths describe how three gods Voden, Vili and Ve killed the evil frost giant Ymir and formed the cold north, hot south and middle earth. Midgard was a land of mild airs, a safe and secure place for man and woman to live. Ancient Avebury’s features exactly match the elements of the Vikings’ creation of the world myth, a sacred temple built to celebrate fertility, justice and health.

“Creating the World” describes England’s largest ancient monument at Avebury. Rings of standing stones, a ditch and embankment represented people’s concept of the world’s creation by the old gods. The story endured for three and a half thousand years from about 2500 BC until 1100 AD. The Britsh National Trust and English Heritage should preserve the entire site as represnting mankinds oldest complete and comprehensive expression of the creation.
