GGG Ping.

It was just about 44 years ago that I visited Stonehenge and I didn’t see any digging.

Remind me to put it in my will that I want to be buried with a titanium tablet engraved with the message, “Here lies the man who has just cursed you and your descendants. Have a nice day.”

[Young Werther]

It's a UFO landing pedestal!

How do I know? The statues told me so!

Regardless:

Evacuation Starts At Stonehenge

Somehow you go on the wrong thread, try this one:

Archaeologists Find Evidence Of Origin Of Pacific Islanders

It was for use as a ancient garage for this ...

or for use as shade from ancient global warming.

Do we know offhand if the site has been hit with ground penetrating radar?

[PeterFinn]

Shhh, don't tell anyone....but I have a theory they'll discover that Stonehenge is made of stone.

[BilLies]

Thanks, Stonehenge examinations alway interesting

[RightWhale]

Faith healing. Sure, why not.

It's a UFO landing pedestal!

Shucks, Kieth Laumer taught me that, back in '62 or '63.

I was sitting in the shade of a Bolo Mark IV, while it's main batteries cooled down & the infinite repeaters provided automatic air cover for the landing of CDT Peacekeepers and a delegation led by Third Assistant Consul Reteif. With nothing better to do, I pulled out my battered copy of A Trace of Memory, settled down with a bottle of vintage Pepsi, and began reading...

Do let us know when they find the dope smoking pipes.

[SunkenCiv]

;') Twenty years ago there was a BBS around here called "The CDT", and the handle of its operator was "Retief".

StoneHenge is one of the coolest things that our ancestors did, regardless of its purpose. It has fascinated me, from afar, for four decades. I hope I see results from this excavation.

[Ramius]

What is it with archaeologists anyway, that everything interesting always has to be a temple, or shrine, or some other religious building?

Maybe it was a tavern.

[ApplegateRanch]

Interesting; thanks.
