THE KING OF STONEHENGE,Stonehenge Forever a mystery,There is nothing quite like Stonehenge anywhere in the world and for 5000 years it has drawn visitors to it,No one really knows how or why Stonehenge was built. These circles of giant stones were placed in a grassy field in southern England nearly 5,000 years ago. Some believe that the rocks served as enormous (巨大的) sundials (日冕仪). Others think that people used them for religious purposes. Over time, the landscape around Stonehenge underwent substantial change and development,What you see today is about half of the original monument, some of the stones have fallen down, others have been carried away to be used for building or to repair farm tracks and over centuries visitors have added their damage too,Stonehenge was formerly owned by a local man, Sir Cecil Chubb, and he gave it to the nation in 1918 and it is now managed by English Heritage on behalf of the Government. In 1986, it was inscribed as a World Heritage Site.It is without doubt one of the finest prehistoric monuments in existence and an even more remarkable mystery,materials,bone,copper,pottery,clay,stone,fur,gold,Which materials were found ,Which objects were found in the grave of the king of Stonehenge,objects,a bone pin,two gold earrings,A cushion stone,two copper knives,tools,arrows,a bow,two pots,His grave is the richest of any found that period .
