Bump.   :)

And I was thinking...  What if bannerstones found with women and children (in burials) was a way for a man to identify his family?  Regardless of what the bannerstones were used for, assuming it was a "man" thing, burying your loved ones with something that is obviously personal to you, and identifies you as an individual, makes more sense to me than the idea that women and children actually used the bannerstones.  Just a thought.

Buckeye Guy:
Isn't that kinda the meaning of ceremonial ?
At least it is a big part of what I think of when they say ceremonial
I have a lot of things that have a special meaning to me 
As I sit here thinking about it most of those things are from those that have gone before me and may well end up buried with me or my children
No real spiritual aspect just a part of what makes me me I guess

JackCrafty:
Exactly.
