Stonehenge and Conquests
As this article points out; the construction phrases at east in brief
correspond to the remodeling of the sacred cities on the west side of the
Nile between Sakkara and Giza (Westy/Westies
) aka the Pyramids. But that is not where the
story stops.
each phase of
construction of Stonehenge and the entire Stonehenge (dragon/dragons lair)
complex corresponds roughly to the dates from which Egypt was conquered.
4000 – 3800 first evidence of
mounds and such laid out; monotheistics begin

Cross comparison Salisbury and Giza
Five phase of construction match to
the century when a major political upheaval was occurring in Egypt.
Stonehenge and the previous to
being remodeled pyramids are built with the same radically advanced
construction techniques and mathematics. Sufficient level of said are left
for the monotheists under Narmer to remodel with permission the megaliths
into pyramids.
my theory
Giza, Sakkara, and abusire looked much closer to
what Stonehenge and said looked like previous to 3100 b.c.e.
this might be a
compressed gize plateau. Or a modified Giza. The
tabernacle to the south, the river to the east, Stonehenge in the middle, and
woodhenge to the north. Since the builders of
Stonehenge the People of Kaern also built what was remodeled from Giza which
is referenced in the bible “the light place; Jacob rested upon and chose to
use the stones to build his ladder to heaven; aka Khufu pyramid.
Phases of construction
Being built roughly the same time
as the great pyramids of Egypt, the builders of Stonehenge didn’t have
elaborate sets of winches and cranes at their disposal. Therefore, the
construction of a "precision instrument" made out of earth , timber and especially of stone wasn’t completed
overnight.
To be more precise, Stonehenge was
being altered and changed for more than two thousand years. Depending from
one’s point of view, the phases of construction can be divided into several
segments, usually people speak about three main phases, but if one starts to
be picky, four phases can be found, with one of them dividing yet to three
sub-phases.
However, everyone who claims to
know something about Stonehenge’s construction, dates and phases the stages
differently, so the following should be taken with a grain of salt.
Stonehenge I ( 3100 – 2300 BC )
Being the oldest of the phases,
Stonehenge I is most "ruined". This is being helped by the fact,
that the main feature of this stage is the circular bank-and-ditch formation
around the (more noticable) center, was made from
dirt. The bank is now eroded down to less than a meter high, but it was much
higher when originally erected. The diameter of this dirt-circle is about 100
meters, and just outside of it is a concentric ditch.
From the Slaughter Stone leads an Avenue
to the Heel Stone ,
with its own banks and ditches on both of its sides. (The erection of the
Heel Stone and the construction of the Avenue could be done during the second
phase of construction, but f or the purpose of simplicity, let’s consider it
done here.)
Inside the circular bank are the 56
holes that have been named by their founder, John Aubrey, as Aubrey Holes
(they are now invisible to the surface, but can be observed with the aid of a
thin rod, say a fencing foil). Probably from this era are also the four Station
Stones (only two of them survived), which are located at certain Aubrey
holes, crating two parallel lines just past the center of the circle, and
creating a 90 ° angle with the direction of the Avenue.
Probably Stonehenge I consisted a
timber gate at the far end of the Avenue, but there is no certainty about
that, since from obvious reasons it doesn’t exist anymore.
Stonhenge II ( 2100
– 2000 BC )
Due to the ambiguities in sources,
this stage (at least parts of it) is known also as Stonehenge IIIa, which is why there is no such section next, but the
presentation continues straight from IIIb. As it
came up before, the Heel Stone and the Avenu e may
date to this period of time, again, the absolute certainty is somewhere
beyond.
The ancient builders of Stonehenge
must not have been isolated group of people sticking to their home corners,
because the two stone rings around the center of Stonehenge were of material
brought from Wales. These circles of Welsh Bluestones are not erected
anymore, for they were never completed in the first place, and the beginnings
were dismantled during the next phase of construction.
Better remaining from this era are
the huge sandstone blocks, which come to most people's minds when referencing
to the word "Stonehenge". For sure, these Sarsens of
sandstone are more part of the Stonehenge III, so therefore this spa n of
timeline could be described as Stonehenge IIIa, for
the remains of Stonehenge II are few, if any.
This task may seem to be simple to
somebody without proper backround knowledge, but
when added the facts that the bulders back then
didn’t have any modern tools or constructional aids, and that one sarsen’s
dimensions are 4x2x1 meters and each had to be brought to the site through at
least a few steep ascends and descends, we see what an enormous task it was .
A few time units later, a horseshoe
of five sarsen pairs covered with lintelns was
constructed inside the sarsen ring.
Stonehenge IIIb
( 2000 – 1550 BC )
By this time, the bluestones from
Stonehenge II were dismanteled, and could be used
again. This was to construct another horseshoe inside the previous
one, now only out of the smaller bluestones.
Stonehenge IIIc
( 1550 – 1100 BC )
By now the original idea of
Stonehenge II was completed, when a circle of bluestones was erected between
the sarsen ring and the sarsen horseshoe. Apparently there must have been an
abundance of bluestone, because the bluestone ring didn’t take all the stones
left out from previous phases, and to hold these "surplus" stones,
two concentric circles of holes were dug outside the sarsen ring. These holes
are today known as Y- and Z- holes, and there are 30 of each type. It seems
that this ph ase was
never finished, for there are no extra bluestones around, and the holes
themselves are empty.
Stonehenge IV ( ca. 1100 BC )
This phase is just a matter of
viewpoint, because it doesn’t include any more than the continuation of the
Avenue all the way down to the river Avon, which runs a couple of kilometers
from the site.
This phase could, if viewed
sarcastically, contain the looting and pillaging of stones by stonemasons and
other craftsman during several following thousands of years, and the modern
tourism, which cannot be without leaving its mark on a monument of soc ial history.
