Largest maize formation to ever appear in England is well worth a visit. Stuart meditates in this canopy construction, one of the many interesting features to be found within this maize formation. To my knowledge this is the largest maize formation to ever appear in England.
This is a very overpowering formation to visit as it is easy to lose one's way amongst the many circles and feel enveloped in the maize crop while walking in it. A completely different feeling from visiting formations in wheat, barley and oil seed rape. If you get the chance I highly recommend the experience.

Several “firsts” appeared in the largest maize (corn) crop circle ever made in England. Shapes in the first-ever features are integral to Native American rituals in which corn is a central element: A tie made in corn leaves and a hut shaped with bundled stalks of corn plants.

Andrew Pyrka reports that the hut was a uniquely central feature in the crop circle: “The circle with the tepee/hut/tent was the only circle where stems were left standing on purpose as flattened stems are lying in a swirl outside and inside the hut creation. If hoaxers came after the formation was created then to create this hut they would have had to use the outer standing stems of the circle - the stems to create the hut were quarter of the way into the inner of the circle with a walkable path around the hut!
Above, the covering of a sweat lodge is pulled away from the sides to show the inner structure. A sweat lodge is a low, domed structure that resembles the hut shape that Andrew Pyrka noted in his field report for the crop circle: “One circle has a very interesting design and its in a shape of a ' HUT ‘. The plant is bent inwards and a neat knot is applied to bond the plants together. This appears to be a physical action rather than any other form of creation. Plant stems around and within this hut are showing the swirl effect - so it would indicate an intricate level of thought to its creation.”
A sweat lodge is shaped with limbs of a sapling still green enough to be pliant for bending into a dome at the top and positioned over a pit where glowing hot stones will be placed. The skeleton of the lodge is covered with blankets or hides to hold in heat and block light from entering the lodge when an opening for the door is covered.
Participants crawl into a sweat lodge on their hands and knees to remember the way we humans came into the world. The lodge is the womb of our mother earth. The saplings are her ribs and the blankets and hides are her skin. Water is poured over glowing red stones that have been heated in a fire outside the lodge then placed in the pit. Songs and prayers are made in the lodge while water that has been prepared for the lodge is poured over the stones. Prayer ties are sometimes hung from the ribs of the sweat lodge or placed on an altar in front of the door that faces the east.
Prayer ties for Native American rituals are made with cotton filled with tobacco and tied with two knots identical to a knot in the crop circle. Prayers are whispered as tobacco is placed into small squares of cotton. The corners of the cotton squares are tied in knots then placed on earthen altars, hung in trees or ribs of sweat lodges that resemble the shape of the hut in the crop circle. When the prayer’s one wished to make are complete, be it an hour, a day, or a week, the prayer ties are burned to purify and release the prayers in the smoke of cleansing fire.

“I have tried to tie a similar knot myself in daylight hours using the same process with two stems - YES its possible BUT what I have found is that I caused BRUISING to the plant by pulling at the leaf. The knots in question have NO bruising!”
The crop circle was made at Knighton Hill, near Wayland Smith, Oxfordshire. It was discovered August 29, 2009.

Perhaps finding the shapes and forms of Native American ritual in a crop circle made in corn on the English countryside is not as amazing as it may seem at first glance. Those who have never seen prayer ties and sweat lodges with corn laid at the altar could not recognize something never seen. Corn was first cultivated in the heart of Native America and memories of its first home are certainly no stranger to corn. In this paradoxically holographic world in which we live, it may be more amazing that memories embedded deeply in DNA are not recognized more often. This is the landscape into which evolution is taking the human species with awakening of DNA to memories of origins and destinies. That’s a certainty.
