Stonehedge and Protesters

Supposedly this was built in phases between 3100 BC and 1600BC in phases, how in the hell did they get those rocks on top of the pillars. The pillars weigh 25 tons....was engineering that sophisticated 2-3000 years before Jesus was born?

 

Build a low-grade dirt, rock and wood ramp leading up to and over the bottom stones, slide the stones up, slowly remove the dirt.

 

Runed

 

beware of imitations

 

Stonehenge needed some color anyways. It has been rather drab and uninspiring for the last 50 years.

 

I was going to buy a hybrid but bought a Suburban instead after watching that

 

Car Henge would be way more fitting for a climate change protests. Also the Nebraska Tourism Board would love anything that gets more attention to Nebraska.

 

For the last 2,000 years

 

Why is that guy wearing an Israel Keyes skull on his shirt?

Stonehenge used to be brightly colored like Greek statues.

 

Yes that was 2,000 years ago.

 

Did it have graffiti and dicks all over it like the Romans used to do?

 

So, not trying to be a paint nerd, but those vivid flourescent DayGlo pigments are extremely modern. They couldn't have made anything remotely colored like that 2000 years ago. They couldn't even have made anything that looked like that 100 years ago.

Specifically Celts on the British Isles would have had an extremely limited palate of colors. Much more limited than even the Romans, who sourced pigments from all over their huge empire.

 

That's an illusion caused by the moon in the background.

 

I stand corrected. I apologize for jumping to conclusions.

 

Just like Stonehenge.
