Stonehenge is located on the Salisbury Plain. It is a great mystery who built this massive stone circle. Theories include Druids, the Greeks,
U.F.O.s and Atlanteans. Although the bigger mystery is why they built stonehenge. Some say it was a sacrificial altar or that it was an
astronomy tool, back in the 18th century it was even proposed that stonehenge was used as a gallows.
What we do know about Stonehenge is that it is aligned to many astronomical events. One alignment is the sun on the summer solstice
rising directly over the heel stone (A) viewed from the Altar stone (B).
