In Lib. X., p. 167 (of the Francfurt edition), the author states that Harold 

 Blatand employed the whole of his army, and a vast number of oxen, in

This work is of the highest interest and importance ; and may be placed on 

 an equality with Domesday Book. It is — together with the Ecclesiastical 

 History of Bede — the great source from which the early chroniclers 

 obtained their materials for the times to which it relates. " Ambresbyri" 

 is mentioned (Thoipe, I., 245) : but neither Stonehenge nor Abury ; nor 

 is there any mention of any fight or " massacre " of British chiefs by the 

 Saxons at or near Stonehenge.

 preserve these records of the primseval inhabitants of our land."
