Is the colour one of the defining characteristics of a monolith?
Is the position (vertical on your example) one of the defining characteristics of a monolith?
Is the shape one of the defining characteristics of a monolith?
Is the material one of the defining characteristics of a monolith?
Seeing that my dictionary explanation was not correct, can you, as a geologist, explain what is the definition of the word "monolith"?
Its not the crown its the heat You ever try wearing one in 120 degree desert?You're forgiven!!
But I am a real geologist and I already showed you that granite fractures into fairly regular blocks... but I searched for days trying to find a sample on Earth that was THAT smooth and rectangular... with no luckI know you are a real geologist, I was just teasing you to see if you would post that.
I think most people do not know about it.
Are there any other types of rock that can break like this?
What is your opinion on how those rock were created?
So Castle on the Hill works better for me....Fine by me, I like castles.
