Thanks raybbr!

Did Stonehenge start out as royal cemetery?

I found it odd that all the remains were from cremation.

To me that indicates human sacrifice, rather than just an ancient upscale crematorium.

The size and shape of Stonehenge would indicate something dealing with rituals of a high importance.
