Resumen de Putting stonehenge in its place.

William Underhill

  • The article discusses an increasingly accepted view among archaeologists that Stonehenge in Great Britain was part of a larger ceremonial landscape. According to the author, the purpose of Stonehenge was the object of speculation by scholars for years with their interpretations focused on the stone circle itself. He notes discoveries that suggest Stonehenge was not a stand-alone structure, but the centerpiece of a more expansive ritual setting. The archaeological history of Stonehenge and the discovery of several major structures in its vicinity, including a putative timber henge, that led to hypotheses about how the Neolithic people used the landscape is presented.
