@ThankYouForLettingMeTryingToHelp

Hey, that was a good guess but sorry no, not this time.

The site on isla de pascua chile with its 900 monumental statues called moai, created by inhabitants during the 13th–16th centuries looks similar and surely is worth a visit. Thanks for that guess laugh

@amiablePeace77 I think it's Stonehenge, right? lol. If not, it reminds me of it. Very mysterious place. Not sure how or why it was built?

@fearlessWriter78 I know right... how it was built is such a mystery!

User Profile: amiablePeace77
amiablePeace77 OP October 31st, 2019

@fearlessWriter78

One theory suggests that Stonehenge was used as a Late Neolithic burial site and a monument to the dead – or at least it was for 500 years during the first two phases of its construction from ~3,000 BC until the monuments were erected in ~2,500 BC.

Charred remains were unearthed in holes around the site, known as the Aubrey Holes, that once held small standing stones. Analysis of the bones suggests they were buried during this 500-year period. After 2,500 BC, the people who used Stonehenge stopped burying human remains in the stone circle itself and began burying them in ditches around the periphery, suggesting a shift in the cultural significance of Stonehenge.

"If you visit Stonehenge today, you'll find that it's roped off — keeping visitors from touching, or worse, taking bits of the nearly 5,000 year old monument. ... However, with the recognition that the stones might be unstable Stonehenge was fenced, a policeman was installed, and a 1 shilling entrance fee was charged"

Yo... hold up! Isn't this the Stonehenge in England? I was so obsessed with this landmark as a primary schooler! I had forgotten all about it until I saw this post. But it's quite well done considering the tools the Neolithic people had back in the day
