Watch Earth Investigated online: Episode 14 Stonehenge

Stonehenge is England's most mysterious ancient monument, standing on a site older than the Pyramids of Egypt. But who built it and how? We know that some of the rocks were brought to Stonehenge from more than 200 miles away, across England's biggest tidal estuary. We demonstrate how late Stone Age-early Bronze Age Britons could have transported the stones over such a long distance, and raised them into place using primitive technology, some 4500 years ago. Then, using a three-dimensional computer model, facial anthropologists examine human skeletons which have been found near Stonehenge. watch as they recreate the face of a man who may have worked on the construction of this enigmatic ancient structure.
