Stonehenge mystery solved
If you're like me, you're into rocks, and not just crushed limestone. Doesn't matter if it's the red rocks of Sedona, Arizona, the glacial outcrops along Ohio's highways, or the multicolor agates on Oregon beaches. Well, a fascinating story out this morning involves the enigmatic megaliths at Stonehenge, on the Salisbury Plain in Southern England. They finally figured out where they came from, and the answer is 240 miles away in Wales. Researchers were able to match the geological make-up of the bluestone slabs with a primitive quarry on Carn Menyn mountain. Now who cut the stones out of the mountain and transported them 4,500 years ago? That's the real mystery. Your comment?
