Solving the mysteries of Stonehenge - Leon Gray

Stonehenge is one of the world's most famous sites where ancient history can
still be explored today. This ancient monument has puzzled and fascinated archaeologists and historians for hundreds of years because no one knows for sure what it was actually built for! Stone Age Britain was a place where many different tribes of people lived and many theories suggest that Stonehenge was a place used for ceremonies and rituals.
Solving the Mysteries of Stonehenge explores this amazing ruin and looks in detail at other famous henges such as one of the largest ones in Europe at Avebury and the
stone circles at Carnac in France. With Stonehenge as a background, the book fills in
the details of how we think the
people who lived there at the time built and used this amazing stone circle. It also explains how some of the
archaeological discoveries were uncovered, which have helped to piece
together our understanding of this fascinating place.
