Stonehenge Gets a Facelift

  • In order to preserve Stonehenge, a United Nations World Heritage Site, for future archaeologists, the great stones needed a bit of a facelift. Laser scans helped figure out which areas of the ancient monument to repair. The stones date back about 4,500 years and are as high as 30 feet. These repairs will stop existing cracks from getting bigger, and replace previous repairs. And maybe someday we’ll figure out how Stonehenge got there. #InsideEdition

    I love how Americans report on Stonehenge and always manage to omit the part about where the stones originated from. They were originally transported to their current location in Wiltshire and came from the Preseli Hills in Pembrokeshire, west Wales - a distance of over 180 miles. None of them were transported there by water which obviously means that they had to be brought in overland which even today is a monumental feat ( Oops, sorry about the horrendous pun, Folks! ) and is unimaginable over 4,500 years ago, isn't it?

It's no wonder that Stonehenge is revered by the Druids even to this day, isn't it?

    "hey bro why don't we put stones near each other?"
    "Yeah yeah and let's make them straight up and put some stone on the top of the other stones too"
    "Yeah yeah it's gonna be cool"
    *After many many years later*
    "Omg look at that prehistoric stone monument let's preserve it and let's make a news/article about it"

      Dunno why anyone would go. It was completely fabricated 100 years ago. Zero dollars should be spent on that garbage. They literally just found the stones all over in the area then made stonehenge saying they think that could have been maybe how the stones were placed. It's a joke. It's no heritage or historical site.
