Wow, Garry - this is overwhelming. I have always been curious, as everyone else, I guess, as to what the original purpose of Stonehenge was and the secrets it protects. I will read up on all this info you provided, but I feel it is kind of sad to disturb the past in this case. Still, I am curious because understanding the past can help us to understand a lot of things pertinent in today's cultures.

This is fascinating! I can't wait to know everything that they find. While I enjoy the mystery behind Stonehenge, it would still be awesome to understand just a little bit more about it.

Seven Sisters of Wales had always been recognized historically for a coal pit that was located in the middle of what was the richest source of coal in the world. The pit was named Seven Sisters Colliery after the seven daughters of Evan Evans-Bevan.
