Have you ever been to Stonehenge in Wiltshire, England or even just seen pictures of them? If you haven't you probably have just not realized what it was and how amazing this structure really is. It is a lot more than just a bunch of rocks piled on top of each other in the middle of some plains, every one of these rocks is cut and fited almost perfectly. Also, these rocks weigh tens of thousands of pounds and modern day cranes couldn't even lift them to the height they are at today, and at the top of every supporting stone is a notch that fits into notches carved into the top stones so they are never able to fall off.
But not only is every rock incredible on it's own, all of Stonehenge is actually a diagram if you will. It shows exactly the points of the midwinter sunrise, the midwinter sunset, mdsummer sunrise, midsummer sunset, minimum summer moonrise, minimum summer moonrise, maximum winter moonset and minimum winter moonset. That's correct simple ROCKS can determine all these listed things.
These incredible stones have been dated to be built as late as 2800 B.C. What civilization would have been able to build this structure and be able to calculate all these measurments? In this blog I will go over several theories that have been made on how this extra-ordinary task.
