Stonehenge is probably the most important prehistoric monument in Britain. The Stonehenge we see today is the final stage that was completed about 3,500 years ago.
The first Stonehenge was a large earthwork, consisting of a ditch(沟), bank and the Aubrey holes, all probably built around 3,100BC. The holes themselves were not for the purpose of graves, but as a part of religious ceremony.
The second stage of Stonehenge started around 2,150BC. About 82 bluestones, some weighing 4 tons each, is thought to have been carried by water along the south coast of Wales and up the rivers Avon and Frome, before being dragged overland again to near Warminster, about 6 miles away. The final stage of the journey was mainly by water, down the river Wylye to Salisbury, then the Salisbury Avon to west Amesbury. These stones were set up in the center to form an incomplete double circle.
The third stage of Stonehenge, about 2,000BC, saw the arrival of the Sarsen stones, which were almost brought from Avebury, about 25 miles north of Stonehenge.
The final stage took place soon after 1,500BC when the bluestones were rearranged on the horseshoe and circle that we see today.
