Stonehenge Likely Built With Stones And a Design Taken From an Ancient Welsh Monument
Video: Why White Men have been losing Wars since WW2
For a very long time Ive pondered why White men have lost so many of these racial conflicts since WW2. In this video we look at quite a number of things that affect war. We take a specially close look at the Vietnam War and the Rhodesian War. The Vietnam war is unquestionably the greatest disaster that White men have experienced in a RACIAL WAR.
Remains of an ancient monument in west Wales indicate stones that stood at the site may have been dismantled and used to build the Neolithic standing circle Stonehenge, a new study suggested Friday.
Researchers believe some stones used at Stonehenge, near Salisbury in southwest England, were used in an earlier monument 175 miles (280 kilometres) away in southwest Wales.
The team behind the discovery from University College London (UCL) said there were key elements linking Stonehenge, built in 3000 BCE, with the earlier stone circle named Waun Mawn.
They suggest bluestones – distinct blue and grey stones that originated in Wales – may have been moved by the ancient builders of Stonehenge as their society migrated.
The findings, due to be published in the journal Antiquity, would explain why the monoliths were moved so far when most similar standing circles from the time were built close to their quarries.
Waun Mawn is one of the oldest stone circles in Britain and the country’s third largest.
Its surrounding region was an important and densely settled area until 3000 BCE when activity seems to have abruptly ended.
"It’s as if they just vanished. Maybe most of the people migrated, taking their stones – their ancestral identities – with them," archaeologist Mike Parker Pearson, from UCL, said.
With an estimated 80 bluestones erected on Salisbury Plain, it is likely that Waun Mawn, in the Preseli Hills in Pembrokeshire, was not the only monument recycled at Stonehenge, he added.
"Maybe there are more in Preseli waiting to be found. Who knows? Someone will be lucky enough to find them," he said.
Scientific dating of charcoal and sediment from the holes where stones stood at the Welsh site, reveal it was erected roughly 400 years before Stonehenge, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
There are also indications the builders of Stonehenge copied the monument in Wales.
Waun Mawn has a diameter of 360 feet (110 metres) – the same as the ditch that encloses Stonehenge – and both are aligned on the midsummer solstice sunrise.
The Incredible Hero: David Irving - Truth Telling Historian
I have tremendous respect for David Irving. This British man did the most incredible work doing research and telling the truth about Hitler, the NAZIS and Germany. He‘s very old now. Download everything you can from his website and if possible buy his books and support him. This is the most incredible man to come out of Britain in modern times.
