They most likely used the rendered fat to greaze the skids.

This might be plausible if Stonehenge were some isolated curiosity, but it isn't. There are other stone circles. The largest is in nearby Avebury. It clearly wouldn't support any kind of structure. Theories that explain one circle but ignore the others are sort of dead on arrival IMHO.

Modern science already solved this. THe last numbnuts said it was a huge BBQ pit despite it aligning perfectly with the planets and being perfect acoustically to broadcast out to the sea.

No thanks there are more intelligent insights to Stonehenge other then it was a “Majestic roundhouse.”.

[BenLurkin]

I’ll go with huge BBQ pit. That works.

Pretty!

What railroad roundhouse in what city?

It turns out that it was a wedding and banquet venue.

Yes, but did the DRUIDS serve & cater Same-sex weddings at the facility? If not, their descendants must be found and forced to pay reparations.

run for the roundhouse, Nellie! They'll never corner you there.

I stole about $20 out of your purse. Wait, what?

Stonehenge is on a high meadow with low hills in the distance. I don't remember a river nearby so I doubt that it would flood there.

For the trains to turn around. ...

As for how the stones got there, it could have been constructed during the time of the Nephilim...

Gen 6:4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

Samson was strong. Get a battalion and get to work.

My wife and I visited Stonehenge in the 1980’s. We stayed at a bed and breakfast near Salisbury Plain. The Innkeeper woman said giants built Stonehenge. She seemed to believe herself.

"Why would you move 75 large stones just so you could dance around twice a year? If you put a roof on it you can use it all year," she told the Salisbury Journal.

Why would you move 75 large stones just to build a meeting room? Why wouldn't they just make the 1st floor structure out of wood as well? It would be so much less work. Unless, of course, there was some other kind of motivation behind it, like religious stuff..

Why would you move 75 large stones just to build a meeting room?

As structural support elements, logs would be lighter and easier to transport than stones.

My theory is that they were all cattle corrals
