Dig links Stonehenge to circle of life
Article Abstract:
Archeologists have presented some evidence that the site of Stonehenge, the legendary circle of standing stones, is just half of a bigger ceremonial complex. The carbon dating has indicated that the structures at Durrington Walls were built at the same time as Stonehenge, in 2600-2500 B.C. and a complementarity is found between the timber circle and the stone circle of Stonehenge.
