The Stonehenge Trilogy Episode 2 of 3 — The Healing Stones

Описание: Some of the stones at Stonehenge did not originate anywhere near the monument itself. In fact, the famous bluestones were transported nearly 200 miles from the Preseli Hills of Wales—a remarkable journey for Neolithic builders.
Why were these particular stones chosen? Ancient folklore claims they possessed healing powers, and archaeological evidence suggests Stonehenge may once have drawn pilgrims seeking relief from injury and illness.
In this second episode of the Stonehenge Trilogy, we explore the mysterious journey of the bluestones, the legends surrounding their healing properties, and the possibility that Stonehenge served as an ancient pilgrimage site for the sick and injured.
In Episode 3, we turn to the ground beneath the monument itself, where modern technology has begun revealing hidden structures and buried features that suggest Stonehenge was only the center of a much larger ceremonial landscape.
