STONEHENGE
I personally believe that Stonehenge may have been used as a religious facility composed of altars, a place of healing, and also a calendar because time heals all.
I don't think that we give those early humans enough credit, in fact in some ways I actually think they may have been smarter than us or let's say as smart as us. If this monument was actually a calendar the people who built Stonehenge were absolute geniuses. The architecture such as the ways they used joints to connect the stones, the specific orders the stones were placed in, the specific measurements of the stones, and the designs of the stones as well as the designs carved in these stones show that they weren't completely dull and have similar characteristics of humans today. In fact the architecture that we used today has been solely influenced by the way the early humans built places.
