There is an awful lot of the usual "I think that ...", which is fine, but probably bollocks.
The big lad is there on the hill near to Cerne, why or when is largely immaterial but it is there. Unless or until some actual datable evidence becomes apparent then everything is speculation.
I personally think it is medieval or later in origin but I would love to be wrong and it to be say pre Roman Britain, so roughly before Christ (BC) or whatever you call 2024 years ago.
