The mysterious Stonehenge as seen in 1867.
Stonehenge remains one of the greatest mysteries in the world. No one knows who built it, why, or even how but theories are plentiful and most centered around mysticism. In 2007 Archaeologists discovered the remains of a village, this led to theories of Stonehenge serving as a sacred burial ground, for ancient kings perhaps. But considering the fractured condition of the remains, it would make more sense if it served as a place of pilgrimage for the sick. The rocks themselves have been long believed to have healing powers. This comes from the legend that the stones were brought in from Ireland for their magical healing properties which they were infused with by the sorcerer Merlin.
