The Mystery of Stonehenge
The stone circles of Stonehenge have puzzled researchers for centuries. There are many myths, legends, and hypotheses surrounding these stones. How was this grand structure built? For what purpose? What rituals were performed here? What celebrations took place? Who came...
here? To whom, finally, did Stonehenge belong?
This is one of the most remarkable monuments of the megalithic culture that existed in Europe at the end of the Neolithic. Its purpose remains unclear to this day. Apparently, ritual celebrations were held here, burials took place, and gatherings were arranged. Stonehenge was also used for observing the starry sky. Over time, this structure became increasingly grandiose. People from distant regions of Europe flocked here. So what new information have we learned about Stonehenge in recent years?
