Stonehenge is a building that was built in the bronze age and Neolithic era.

Stonehenge is a building that was built in the bronze age and Neolithic era. This historic building is located adjacent to Amesbury in Wiltshire, England, or about 13 km northwest of Salisbury. The most famous historical relic in the world is the upright stone circle which is inside the scope of the earth wall.

Archaeologists argue that the building was erected between 3,000 to 2,000 BC. It took about 2000 years to build Stonehenge, and the construction was divided into three stages. The first construction began around 3000 BC in the form of a simple circular moat with a mound of soil on the inside that is high. In the second phase of development carried out about 700 years later, possibly around 2300 BC. Finally, the third construction was carried out around 200 BC, and the last construction was completed around 1500 before.

Archaeologists have concluded several strong theoretical grounds, that Stonehenge might be a place to worship the sun or an ancient calendar. According to previous research by Parker Pearson, Stonehenge is a place of pilgrimage at the winter solstice. Stonehenge may also be a place of burial or healing. The tombs or graves that surround the site and some of the skeletons found were from a distant region.

It is undeniable that the Stonehenge stone site is one of the world's most enduring mysteries, no one knows why ancient civilizations built such mysterious megaliths of enormous size. Even so, researchers have for years declared the site to be a solar calendar, a symbol of unity or a burial monument.

well seeing i am an artist and i actually did a self portrait; i will describe how i painted it.   i used acrylic on a stretch canvas about 4 feet wide by 6 feet tall. i painted myself smiling in a soft pink long dress, white tile floor sitting on a white couch with a table behind and a vase of gorgeous flowers.   i also had a round white hat with a soft pink ribbon through it laying on the floor and on the table behind me was a lit candle. i kept it simple but soft and romantic.
