Stonehenge
What is Stonehenge? An ancient clock or computer? And who lived and died to create it?
Older than the pyramids and just as cryptic, the prehistoric British site of Stonehenge has dominated its landscape for thousands of years. But what is Stonehenge? A celestial clock? An ancient computer to predict eclipses? Was it a temple, a cemetery, or a site of execution? And who were the people who lived and died to create this Stone Age masterpiece?
This is a Short History of Stonehenge.
