I visited stonehenge in 2019 & it's honestly difficult to describe the feelings I had while I was there. I was working not far away & decided to take a drive to it on a beautiful summers day. I was by myself but wasn't alone as there was a lot of people there. I stayed until the site closed & the visitors had left. There's a tack that runs parallel to the site called "The drove" where lots of new age hippies & general free spirits camp. I spoke with many as they were so friendly & spiritual. I mentioned at the time to the 1st people I spoke to, I said I don't know if its the beautiful weather or the friendly people around. But the feelings of Joy & that I was visiting a very special place will remain with me for the rest of my life. I was so taken I was constantly on the phone to my wife & kids. They were all jealous & I've promised ill take them this summer. I've got a lot of photo's but like I said seeing this place in a video or in photos, is honestly irrelevant. You have to visit the place if possible. It's surreal, spiritual, an amazing place. People who work on the site deserve a lot of credit & I love hearing the different theories. The truth be known there's no written records of its construction & we are clueless to what it really was & what it meant. Too many theories of any mysterious ancient buildings are labelled as tombs or sacrifice places of worship. It's always the same thing. I personally believe we need to start looking at the places from a totally different point of view. We in our arrogance always try & fit narratives to cultures & places from our views of things. It's what we think they should be like. It's ridiculous the cultures & people's who built these structures were nothing like us. We couldn't be more different so how the hell can we look at these places like they were created by an older version of us?

This is for Parker Pearson, Andrew Young, Bruce Bradley, Mike Pitts and the the teams involved. Oh, and the videographer team. Just my two bits worth on how the stones were moved. I would look into the elevation of the river bed compared to the entrance or the end of the channel. If my suspicion is correct they also used buoyancy to transport the stones, as well as the fir/oak channels that you just used as guide rails, complete with the 75mm round ball stones. The round ditch was also filled with water to facilitate positioning before erecting them. But I'm a cabinet maker. Just something to chew on. Great documentary. I would also like to interject my take on the Summer and Winter solstices, but relative to the alignment of the great Pyramid. With polished limestone on each face, this would reflect our Suns' light in a triangular shape at a specific angle and a specific location into space. Much like a lighthouse would. Again, Thanks for the Great documentary.

I love Nova for exactly this kind of well-researched but still accessible material. While I do enjoy deeper university lectures about such subjects they can sometimes be a bit dry, so it's also very nice to have something more easy-going like this here. Great stuff.

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this program. fascinating insights and discoveries, thank you for producing and a huge thanks to all the researchers and students that made this effort work!

Thank you for this great documentary. Hope to see a few more like this.

In the late 19th century Stonehenge was opened as a type of quarry where the landowner hired hammers and chisels to paying guests to break and tranport away as much as they required at a price. The site was finally prototected, but a huge amount has been broken up and carried away and lost. Access to the monumement was, in the 50s fully accessible and as children we played on the stones, thinking it a very magical and mysterious place.

Stonehenge may also be part of the ancient beliefs of holed stones having healing properties. A form of a healing centre for the sick. Holed stones were often used by ancient people with ailments to pass through the hole of any large stone, believing they would be healed like a rebirth. Comparing it to the natural birth of an infant. Much like entrances of ancient churches of Ireland, Scotland and other places that were considered obscene because of symbolic carvings that have long since been removed.

In this show, Parker Pearson does not mention that the animals in the feasting pits came from Scotland. Nor does he mention the Ring of Brodgar in the Orkneys, built hundreds of years before Stonehenge. Because perish the thought that the English would need to admit that this iconic monument might have been built by people who originally came from Scotland.

I went to Stonehenge as a kid in the 70’s. We were the only people there. Climbed on the stones, jumped off, messed around and went home. I drive past today and there’s hundreds of people kept away from the stones moving in a circle around it. I think, where the hell do they all come from ? What made them all suddenly interested in these stones? Nobody gave a dam when I was little 😂😂

Interesting - but although the stone bearings are plausible the oak track would be difficult without machining...

I was fortunate to be amongst the 10 to 50 thousand freaks , mystics , punks , day trippers , acid trippers , lost soccer supporters etc whom enjoyed the annual Summer Solstice Free Festival which was held over about week since the early 1970s until its prevention by Mrs Thatchers’ orders in 1985. Fantastic . It puzzles me how folks in those days whom apparently only lived in tribes or family groups managed such a long - distance logistical feat such as this . ( the organisation & construction of the henge - not the festival ) For a race of folk whom lived in mud huts they certainly had some nifty techniques when construction of massive stone monoliths from quarries across the sea or 100 miles beyond the mountains became necessary . Maybe they combined smoke signals with herds of diplodocus 😁❤️🐢

How interesting to view the Stone Age as communal and before humans got wrapped up with personal wealth

I visited there in Feb 2023 , Heard the story about Stonehenge is very embarrassing..I am really enjoyed

This is certainly one opinion. Whether it carries weight or not is a long conversation. And one of many to be had today regarding the many opinions of experts.

So they brought all them giant stones from wales, 150 miles away? that's mind blowing. it would be nice if it was reconstructed back to how it used to be.

Even in our place, there are stone a giant stone that is just impossible for human being to carry . What we heard is that, there's some supernatural, some kind of power which help them carry them.

Stonehenge is a 4 dimension portal the ancient build for their dead to cross over

Loved the photo bombing goat.

I seen a documentary where they dug Stonehenge up and moved the stones along time ago

A landing pad for space ships

Maybe they moved the stones via the water as it joins up with the river and there was a trench dug. Also thought Stonehenge itself may have been used as a funeral pyre at one point. Perhaps when the ground was frozen they stored their dead there, and when it thawed they could bury them, as it seems even after being cremated they were still buried.

Replicas are based on physical theories and they didn't consider the mental capabilities that were used backed then. Power of the mind.

Huge logs were placed on top of the lintels in such a way so as to build/ create a wigwam or yuart. It was a shelter for giant people of the past!

Is this a rerun? I saw another doc featuring the same head archeologist who revealed that the blue stones had been part of a stone circle in Wales and that they were moved when the people moved to where they are now.

I have heard that these two circles are both part of a super structure - as a ring of post holes have been found encircling both henges....more to come I hope.

Could you date all this research please?

I'd imagine they would wait for the ice to form before they moved boulders

What I find frustrating is that nobody appears to question why the lintels had tongue and grooves to fit together and ball and sockets to fit on the up rights. These would serve to lock the whole structure together but why? .. The only reason I can think of is that the uprights were freestanding at the time the lintels were placed on top this would then hold the uprights in place while the bases were secured so keeping the whole structure's shape exactly. The only way to place the lintels on top like this is to lower them and yes I know "Imposable they didn't have that technology" but look at Stonehenge everything about it goes against technology of the time and so must have been the construction methods used. If you still think the uprights were stood and secured first then the lintels would not need tongue and grooves and ball and sockets to stay in place look at other ancient structures around the would that still stand today where stone is just placed on top of stone. Plus it would have made construction far simpler. However you look at it the tongue and grooves and ball and sockets are so radical for the time their importance is being grossly undervalued.

What people don't realise is that this entire structure is not how it originally stood untouched. It was taken down and put back in 1958, repairs made with concrete and steal to hold up the stones.

Its ritual importance is related to the fact that Stonehenge was located where the River Avon meets the sea. The sea level was once at about 90 meters. They demarked the shoreline in a peculiar way that allows you to see it very clearly in satellite images. Once you see it, you will not believe your eyes. There is not a single inch of this land which is not formed by human hands, there are massive harbors and cities. They must have had a fleet of thousands of ships. All those scattered stones make sense when you see where they are in relation to the water. All the islands where densely populated.

But how do they make the stones and from where?

It's just a thought but I remember seeing a documentary about an excavation on a Norfolk beach where they found a neolithic wooden structure in the form of a circle and the centre was a tree that had been turned upside down and the roots must have formed a canopy. Could the 'Woodhenge' have the same feature and instead of wooden posts have trees embedded upside down their roots as a canopy? It certainly would have looked far more impressive than wooden posts and it probably could have some ritual significance?
