Stonehenge, the circular arrangement of large stones near Salisbury, England, was probably built in three stages
between about 3000 and 1000 bc The function of the
monument remains unknown: once believed to be a temple for Druids or Romans, Stonehenge is now often thought to
have been either a temple for sun worshipers or a type of
astronomical clock or calendar As the only natural building stones within 21 km (13 mi), Stonehenge has been decimated through the centuries by builders and by normal climatic
forces.
