Light Shed on Stonehenge Origins

For thousands of years Stonehenge has kept its origins secret. Now archaeologists working on Boscombe Down have discovered a burial mound of seven men thought to have helped build the monoliths. The 4300-year-old remains are called the Boscombe Bowmen because of the arrowheads found in the grave. Scientists examining their teeth have found a chemical print allowing them to pinpoint where they came from.

 

Dr. Andrew Fitzpatrick, an archaeologist, said, "These people came from a great distance, maybe two hundred miles away from Stonehenge even more exciting we can tell these people migrated. They didn't come at one stage because when your teeth form as a child they come at different times, and the chemical fingerprint for these different teeth is different at different ages, so we can say these people migrated and eventually they came to live and to die at Stonehenge."

 

Building Stonehenge was a mammoth task. The massive stones were carried over 200 miles as its builders converted the site from a wooden to a stone temple. Today Stonehenge still remains a mystery. But this recent find could throw some light on one of ancient Britain's top kept secret.
