Stonehenge: Has the mystery of the stones' origin been solved

Stonehenge: Has the mystery of the stones' origin been solved | Mail Online: "For centuries, scientists and  historians have argued over why Stonehenge was built and, even more puzzlingly, how.

They are now closer to cracking one aspect of the mystery after working out the exact spot where some of the rocks came from.

The 5,000-year-old circle of stones – thought at various times to have been a temple of healing, a calendar, or even a royal cemetery – have been traced to an outcrop 150 miles away in north Pembrokeshire."
