Yes, I too get the impression that this is a rehash of a fairly recent topic. But hey, seemed like a great opportunity for a Monty Python flashback.

Stonehenge was a cremation cemetry

That seems much more likely to me based on what we know of the ancient world.

This theory of a "healing centre" strikes me as modern New Age nonsense.

In the days of the Trojan War (1200 B.C.?), Homer describes the burning of Patrocles' body on a giant funeral pyre that was a hundred feet each way.

He also describes the burning of Hector's body on a pyre so large that it contained "infinite quantities of wood" that took nine days to gather.
