Dont worry the blacks will fix it as they built it apparently according to the bbc😅

2 IDEAS I HAD 1 it was a pen for livestock 2 it was the foundation of wooden rest of building for a flood

Defrag and reboot...

You have not mentioned the 'Thunder Stone' at NGR NY55231571, clearly seen in the field on Google Earth and named on maps in the 1800s.

At 9:40 seconds, this reminds me of an upside down anatomical drawing of fetal twins in a womb with two fallopian tubes off to the left and right.

Great video, & I wholeheartedly agree, that more research is required on other megalithic sites. But I have to add, no other stone circle in the UK (that I know of)has lintels like Stonehenge. With the 'knobbly' bits that go into holes made for them (! Please excuse my scientific/expert terminology, I am neither!) 😊

it true that stonehenge is treated across the world as something totally amazing and unique - my bf is from the philippines and his one request of what to see was Stonehenge because they'd been taught about it. I disagree that its disappointing (yes that you now can't get near, and yes that the tacky museum/cafe has been built) but when you stand there (or any of the great circles) and just look at them and the feat of them being built let alone the stones coming from somewhere else 100s of miles away it is awe inspiring and humbling and there is something very raw and spiritual about it. If you go to the museum it tells you lots of facts about where the stones came from and how old it is but then its just full of 'and we don't really understand it or why it was built/what it was for'. Its a mystery and we love mysteries.

Excellent independent presentation. Appreciated.

I think the problem is that it was moved to the area possibly the road or another near site being used. Even when I was younger there were more massive stones. I agree Avebury is most important I went to Stonehenge as a child before fenced off there was so much more that made no sense. Perhaps people began taking souvenirs.

RE-Bar and CEMENT !!!

Wood circles had roofing Perhaps stone hinge had a roof

I would love to see a video on the Rudston Monolith.

It's not a symbol of British unity

I appreciate that commentary on Stonehenge, it’s good to know that the BBC along with the presenter Alice Roberts are more interested in Making documentaries and doing proper research for the truth

at least we know rome built london now disintegrating again this time in the colonial empire

uk colonial empire on its death bed

Absolute bollocks… it Is an Alien communications beacon…

Well done finally someone who understands what some of us are talking about Stone Henge is just one of many and we need to take them all into account stand back and try and look at them as a whole!

I'm from millom and had no clue these existed, let alone so close! deffo gonna have a walk out and visit, thank you!! 🤗

I sometimes wonder, looking at the illustration. Whether it’s a main structure to a big house. From the inner to outer circles were laid the timber rafters for the roof.

British and Irish Isles, it’s not 1920.

It will be fine once the new roof is finished. Thanks to 3d scanning the custom.made triple glazed windows will slide right in to the openings. After that the ground source heating will be epic as they can excavate a three hectare pit to bury the eight kilometers of plastic pipe needed to keep it warm. Can't wait to rent it on Airbnb.

Stonehenge deniers are probably flat earthers and moon landing deniers as well.Some people aren't happy without their conspiracy theories.

Swinside Stone Circle ❤

Only the site is of interest. The Stones have been moved around and has loss the purpose for a fiction for Funds attitude.

It also annoys me that any gravethat has a lot of rich goods is the grave of a king. Why not a wealthy person

Hmmm, as a first nation person from Australia I looked at those marks and could see familiar symbols from my own culture. I saw camping grounds, water sources and maps. I also saw mindless squiggles' similar to what I now do on a note pad. I am also qualified as an Archaeologist in Australian first nation culture.

I have a photo of me as a toddler playing on the stones. In the late 50's you could wander all over Stonehenge and you didn't have to pay a penny.

When my brother in law died, he asked that his ashes should be buried in the garden, between the graves of his two cats, and accompanied by a stuffed elephant toy he'd had since he was two. I've often wondered what future archaeologists would make of _that._

Question… when was it pushed over…. Photos show it being erected again. But when pushed over?

'Ritual' is not overused. Sometimes there are tombs :D

I wonder if they were somehow used by the Neolithic tribes together.

So do you know if Cefn Coch, near Penmaenmawr and Moel Ty Uchaf near Llandrillo are ring cairns or stone circles? After watching this I'm guessing ring cairn.

Firstly, amusing though it is i was pleased you lost the 'gentleman antiquarian' voice. Second, if your grammar is bad that's surely between her and your granda, nowt' do wi me.

Agree. In my lifetime I have seen so many reports on Stonehenge, enough to make you giddy. It has got progressively older. The use of it changed 20 times. How it was constructed, done to death. The stones have come from all over everywhere. But are supposedly now tied down. Yet one is meant to come from a Scottish Island I think. The stones have been transported over 500 routes. By every means except Boing 747. But are they sure about what they think now, or will it keep changing. Just recently it went from ritual only site to Milton Keynes, with all sorts of accommodation and living activity in the vicinity. Dig something else. Develop a few more ideas. Come back in another 50 years with a new theory.

Makes me want to go to an ancient stone and play bagpipes. Actually this doesn't, i want to do that every day anyway, but this video definitely reminds me again.

So in modern Welsh (related to Cumbric) Rhug or Rug) (pro. Rigg) means something like rushy or heathy. Obviously in the Germanic a rig comes from the word for a ridge as you say. I guess its possible they both come from PIE and have something to do with early farming. By the way I've discovered and binge watched a few of your videos today, subbed. I'm going to have a few hours in Cumbria (near Shap in fact, yes I've watched the Shap avenue video) later this month and wondering if, after a nice hike i could visit an ancient site. Wondering i should see shap sites or make a D tour to Castlerigg?

True. I grew up near what only recently, 2006, was confirmed as a bronze age earth works and within a short drive of Arbor Low and Nine Ladies stone circles. You can't go anywhere without tripping over some sort of ancient work.

Well, like in this case the endless stream of words separated from any work in the field manage to entertain audiences on YT and sell popular books with insignificant content - helping people who otherwise had to dig, messure and document based on scientific methods to stay alive.

"Stonehenge has a SERIOUS Problem" Could this delay completion?

I think we can all agree that archaeologists and others use the word ritual wrt sites, where it isn’t clear what the purpose is. Its annoying, but does have a foundation in human behaviour. It is also not unreasonable to think that many of these things will be religious in nature for the same reason (think cathedrals and churches, although we should allow the possibility of other alternatives. The problem is we know zero about their religion, which hampers our ability to analyse the site and objects found their ( An offering of great real world value (langdale pike axe) or something of symbolic value to them (the equivalent of a cross). Within all that there is then other human motivations (our stone circle if bigger or more complex than yours or we have a special hill we made which can be seen from boundary hills of our land etc etc). We and archaeologists are also not very self critical and tend to carry on believing early ideas regardless of evidence. As an example here, in-would site the YT channel “History for Granite” idea that the 4th dynasty Pyramids were designed ti be kept open to allow the plebs to go (well be led by the priests) on a physical and symbolic journey (my idea) to worship at the King’s burial chamber and see the site where he is daily resurrected to visit the sky gods (if In understand Egyptian religion at that point). No current professional archaeologist could have that leap of imagination, which he bases on the physical evidence that can be observed rather than the idea if a sealed mausoleum of the past. What can you say about stone circles other than they were probably used for hundreds or thousands of years by the people who lived around them, most probably for some form of physical worship or for a special (?) gathering of the community in a place deemed to be important in some unknowable way (for us today). In a thousand years, would the remains of Old Trafford or Anfield be deemed to be a ritual site ? Would our future selves be entirely wrong if they concluded that ?

why does your voice change so much in your videos?

👍

Oh my god… we’re the pagans time travellers who were trolling the future…. Look at the image at 6:28 and tip your head to the right. It’s a big smiley face lol.

Moon landing deniers, globe earth deniers and now Stonehenge deniers? When are we going to add denier deniers to that list.
