“Stories of Stonehenge”
The creation of Stonehenge bridges the Neolithic Period into the Bronze Age, marking a point in history where human beings developed farming, and began to settle into communities. Building Stonehenge would have established a fixed place in the landscape, where they could gather together and track the movement of the stars above. The people who built this did not yet have the technology of the wheel, and yet--stones weighing several tons a piece were somehow transported across miles of distance to the monument’s location. One question pervades all of the centuries since--How? How did they move these stones into place? And furthermore...Why?
“Wonders of Wiltshire”
Welcome to the first destination of The Enchanted Path--Wiltshire, England!
Located in the South West countryside, Wiltshire is a gentle rolling landscape of patchwork farm fields, charming villages, and deeply mysterious phenomena. Home to the UNESCO world heritage sites of Stonehenge and Avebury, it is one of the oldest-inhabited locations in Britain, with stone circles, barrows, and earthen monuments originating from the Neolithic Period. Crop circles, UFO sightings, ghostly legends, ancient burial sites, thatched roof cottages, haunted pubs, and castle ruins are among the many characteristics that make Wiltshire a truly unique phenomenon of a place.
