I just watched a NOVA video called "Secrets of Stonehenge", and it was very intriguing! It's about archaeologists trying to uncover the history of the giant stone circle in England, and how it's related to astronomy, and as well as death. There's another structure made of wooden stakes that is around two miles away from the Stonehenge, and it represents life, and both circles are connected by the river Avon. It's pretty cool, the way they try to reenact how the people of the stone age would have moved the giant blocks of stone.
I found it astounding that the archaeologists have such great skill! They can simply look at a bunch of rocks and determine what is what! One archaeologist spotted a tiny piece of bone in a pile of pebbles... I'm really interested in archaeology. It's really cool how people can determine the past of a civilization by looking at it's remains. Hmm... maybe I should do more research on this kind of stuff...
