So now everybody’s got their own Henge. Figgers. Its the hip thing to have.
I don’t know why archaeologists always want to insist that every freaking building they ever find is some kind of “temple”. Geez... Give it a rest already.
I would bet that stonehenge was first and foremost a tavern. This is right about the time that man learned to brew beer. They would have needed a place to gather and enjoy their wonderful product together. I can think of few things that would make me want to drag big rocks for miles and miles.
It was a tavern.

The only reasons fire was discovered and remained important was to cook food and to make homebrew. ;’)
