It was made of stones that were henged together.

Actually, no one knows for sure how it was made or even why exactly.

Geological study of the stones that make up the Henge have shown that they are not native to the salisbury plains (where stone henge is located) but are actually carved from mountains in Wales.

In the time of it's construction, it is thought that the Druids were both respected and feared by many who belived them to have supernatural powers. It is therefor suggested that the Druids recruited vast numbers of men from Wales, to cut the stones.

It is thought that sets of wooden rails were contructed and lubricated with linseed. The huge stones were then dragged for many many miles.

Upon arriving at the stone henge site, large pits were dug, and the base of the upright stones lowered into them by vast wooden cranes.

The horizontal plint's on the top of the stones are held onto the upright stones by bumps/holes in the stones carved by masons.

When it was constructed, it was much larger than it is in present day. Before it became a protected monument, people would steal the stones and use them to make houses or roads in the area.

The only time you're allowed right up to the stones (to touch them) is at the summer solstice (mid summer) celebration, in which all are welcome to come and see the sun sink the day before solstice and await it's raising in the dawn (amid much cheering). It's an awesome experience.

fully fake. The Egyptians did not use slaves to construct the Pyramids. They used farmers who might desire to not artwork the fields for the time of the Nile floods, plus a long-lasting experienced artwork stress of perhaps 2000 human beings, the maintains to be of whose residences have been got here across. that is a actuality the frauds who sell the alien business enterprise will in no way inform you. the different data contain that via the time the three best pyramids have been geared up, the Egyptians had already been development them for 2 hundred years or extra, so as that they actually knew the thank you to do it. because of the fact that some earlier pyramids were geared up on poor foundations or with inferior stone or too steep, and fell down as a result, they knew to not try this the two. See the pyramid at Meidum which collapsed in antiquity. Their first vast pyramid at Saqqara has stepped facets, which coach that is evolution from the flat crowned "mastaba" tombs geared up earlier. We even comprehend the call of the architect of that one, his call grow to be Imhotep. the internal galleries of the pyramids use a roofing device spoke of as the corbel, that's a characteristic of primitive stone masonry. Later masonry, which includes that geared up via the Romans used the arch, that's extra sturdy. aliens able to flying to the Earth could have customary the arch and could have used it in any stone systems they geared up. Builder's marks and builder's graffiti in historic Egyptian writng may well be recent in areas of the temple that have continuously been very not undemanding to get to. could aliens have scribbled "How drunk is the king?" above his burial chamber? With the main important pyramid of all, there's a lot of knowledge that plans replaced because it grow to be being geared up. that still is authentic of the bent pyramid and the step pyramid. could aliens able to crossing area have achieved that? As for Stonehenge, the stone circles we see are very almost the final degree of countless hundred years of deveopment on the comparable website. the super stones seem to have been submit no beforehand of 2700 BC, probable one hundred to 200 years later and re-arranged some situations till approximately probable approximately 1900 BC, centuries after the Egyptian pyramids have been geared up. back, if geared up via area traveling aliens, diverse techniques with deeper and simpler foundations could have been used. extra beneficial than probable the stone blocks could have been cut back plenty extra generally. they look incredibly tough now, because of the fact they continuously have been form of shaped yet heavily placed.

I saw a Youtube video about this not too long ago. There's a very interesting man named Wally who demonstrated how Stonehenge could have been made:

most tend to think it was crafted by the ancient Druids. It is like a big calendar, and on the solstice (longest day of the year, the light always shines in the same exact spot. They used to hold ceremony's there as well, there is evidence there proving that much.

all the Irish Pokemon gathered together and used their force powers to rearrange the stones in the face of their leader,Hitler. but as the time faded some rebel Pokemon used the dark side to distort his face. then the same rebels added faces of their leader, Frankenstein, to each subsequent stone. and now you have Stonehenge

I don't think anybody knows, isn't it one of the wonders of the world? However, archaeologists think that the standing stones were erected between 2500 BC and 2000 BC although the surrounding circular earth bank and ditch, which constitute the earliest phase of the monument, have been dated to about 3100 BC.
