» Feature Writer Natasha Sheldon - What was the purpose of stonehenge?


The archaeologist's behind the latest dig at Stonehenge think that the henge was a healing site based on the evidence of human remains surrounding the site.

Is there enough evidence to support this idea? personally, I thinkits an oversimplification. There are several phases to the site and whilst healing may be part of stonehenge's history, I don't think its the whole story.

What do you think?
