1) STONEHENGE 2) Stone is a big stone monument in southern of England 13 km North West of Salisbury. 3) This is how scientists thought Stonehenge did look when it was finished. 4) The altar stone in the middle. 5) A ring of blue stones. 6) A horseshoe-shaped form of sarsen stones. 7) A bigger ring of blue stones. 8) And the last ring of sarsen stones. 9) The stones you can see on the picture are just 2/3 of the entire stone, because 1/3 is under the ground. 10a) Phase 1 Scientists think that the first Stonehenge was built around 3100-2900 BC. it was an earth embankment with 110 meters in diameter. 10b) Phase 2 The building of Stonehenge was around 2500-2400 BC. That consisted of wodden logs in different designs. 10c) Phase 3 Ca 2300 BC. a horseshoe-shaped form of blue stones have been erected pointing towards southwest. The altar stone (that is a 5 meter long sandstone)takes its place in the middle of the ring. 10d) Phase 4 The ring of sarsen stones is raised around 2200-2000 BC. The ring is almost 30 meters in diameter. In the middle of the ring It is now built as a horseshoe-shape of sarsen stones. The altar stone in the middle stays in it’s place. 10e) Phase 5 Now build two rings of blue stones inside the large stone ring. there are also holes in the ground for two further rings outside the large stone ring, but they where probably never built. And this is the completion of the construction of stonehenge. 11) The stones that was used to built Stonehenge was taken from 2 different places in southern of England and Wales. The bluestones have been transported 250 km from Preseli northwest of Stonehenge. The sarsen stones have been taken from a place called Marlborough and placed 30 km north from Stonehenge. 12) WebPages 13) Thank you for listening
