a) Nobody knows. Scientists think that the oldest part of
Stonehenge is 5000 years old.
b) They used it as a calendar. The sun and the huge stones
helped them to know the start of months and seasons. But
there is also another theory which says that people used
Stonehenge for religious ceremonies.
c) Stonehenge is one of Europe's biggest stone circles
d) It is a tourist attraction. Thousands of tourists come to
Stonehenge every year, especially in summer.
e) The height of some stones is about 10 or 12 metres. The
biggest stones are 45000 kilograms.
I's difficult to say. There are many legends and
suggestions. Some people think that the Druids built
Stonehenge. The Druids were priests? who lived in Britain
many years ago. But we don't know how they managed to
bring the huge blue stones from Wales, over 200 kilometres
away.
