Like, I’ve started projects that I waaaay underestimated. Maybe those druids were like “ok, yeah, we’re done here, let’s take the ‘L’” and moved on to something more practical.
One druid was like: “Guys! We’re out here shuffling these heavy ass slabs around in the middle of the forest when we could be eating wild mushrooms and fucking!”
I think you are on to something. Maybe it was just base for the orgies tent.
Other than the fact that Stonehenge predates Druids by about 2,000 years. It was built by what are known as the Windmill Hill and Bell Beaker people. The site itself was being used for rituals in 8000 BC and the first “stage” of what we’d consider Stonehenge was built in 3100 BC.
Never heard of them.
Good job trying to educate on the real ones!
Clearly the same reason they never finished the Coliseum or the temples in Athens. Too much fucking work!
A small correction to a common misconception:
It wasn’t Celts who built Stonehenge. They arrived later and used the monument.
The architect drew out the plans in inches, but when the verticals started rolling in they’d been cut in feet.
I mean I was under the impression they kept adding stuff to it.
Alexandria of Antioch was too lazy to put arms on the Venus de Milo
and thus ADHD was born
Fun fact, some antiquarian put the blocks as they are today
