Stonehenge ... Recent Scholarship

In an article published Sunday, September 8, 2013 in the Raw Story, readers learn that historians have found missing pieces of Stonehenge to confirm that "it was built along an ice age landform that happened to be on the solstice axis".

The article explains that the historians have found evidence that the circles were once complete.

The new discoveries prove to the people of today that out ancestors were concerned with time and how it not only related to the cycle of the day but also the daylight. This knowledge allows modern humans to better understand how ancient people thrived with few tools and possessions. They understood the natural world better than most people today.
