Smaller Stonehenge-like stone circle discovered

Science - Biology



The Sheffield University scientists think that Bluehenge was built at approximately the same time as its larger and more famous counterpart Stonehenge.

Both are believed to have been built about five thousand years ago.

The “blue-colored” stone used for the monument came from Preseli spotted dolerite stone, which was taken out of the Preseli Mountains in Pembrokeshire, Wales.

The Preseli Mountains are about 320 kilometers (200 miles) northwest of the site.

The discoverers think this stone was used because they found bits and pieces of the stone during their uncovering of Bluehenge.

A scientific paper recounting the discovery is expected to be published in February 2010.

For further information on Bluehenge, including a colorful and descriptive illustration of the site, please go to the DailyMail.co.uk article “Bluehenge unearthed: Prehistoric site that could be famous stone circle's little sister.”
