Get ready for a prehistoric adventure! Our journey starts with
world-famous Stonehenge: find out where the stones came from and how
such enormous blocks were moved. Britain is jam-packed with these
mysterious stone circles, and exploring them can tell us about the
culture, society, technology and beliefs of our earliest ancestors. It's
time to get out your magnifying glass and examine the real artefacts
that archaeologists have discovered, from mystical stone carvings to the
weapons of an ancient warrior!
Stone circles are astounding landmarks scattered over the British Isles.
Not only do they provide beauty and wonder, but they remain a Stone Age
mystery. It's time to examine them more closely, taking a look at why
they were built, where they were built and how their locations were
chosen, who built them, and how they were made using the simplest
technology and lots of manpower!
