I was just reading the June 2008 National Geographic on Stonehenge today, gorgeous photos and great info.

So if there was a fence around it so the lower class couldn’t see it then we are priviledged indeed as we do see it.

But imagine when the men who it was built for walked among it, in whatever interesting clothes they wore...

why wouldn’t a better guess than class be sacred from profane, like the court of the Gentiles, and the Holy of Holies in the Jerusalem temple?

Stretching it.

It could have had a ceremonial function of keeping out malign forces or keeping benevolent ones inside or even vice versa.

The wya they stretch this stuff would put a political spinmeister to shame.

The most plausible explanation is that it was built at huge cost to the community to screen the environs of Stonehenge from view.

It's more plausible they needed a fence to charge admission.

How was the height of the fence determined?
