Researchers have dubbed the site "Bluehenge," after the color of the 27 Welsh stones that were laid to make up a path. The stones have disappeared but the path of holes remains. The new circle, unearthed over the summer by researchers from Sheffield University, represents an important find, researchers said Saturday. The site is about a mile away from Stonehenge. Bluehenge, about 80 miles southwest of London, is believed to date back 5,000 years. Mike Parker Pearson of Sheffield University said he believed the path and Stonehenge itself were linked to rituals of life and death. (wish they had some pictures, to tired and worn out right now to go searching the 'net for some) 10/4/2009, 3:06 am Send Email to PerpetuallyCurious   Send PM to PerpetuallyCurious de Corbin Registered user Global user Registered: 09-2008 Posts: 568 Reply | Quote Re: Ancient "Bluehenge" found near famous Stonehenge It's hard to believe that they're still finding new stuff at stonehenge - it has to be one of the most famous sites in the world. --- 10/5/2009, 12:30 am Send Email to de Corbin   Send PM to de Corbin TexasMadness Administrator Global user (premium) Registered: 03-2007 Location: Austin, Texas Posts: 2518 Reply | Quote Re: Ancient "Bluehenge" found near famous Stonehenge This stuff is so interesting.
