In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson examines the mystery and speculation surrounding Stonehenge, the prehistoric stone circle that has puzzled historians for centuries. Built thousands of years ago by Neolithic communities, the monument’s massive stones and precise alignments have fueled theories about lost civilizations, sacred geometry, ley lines, and hidden knowledge. As archaeological discoveries shed new light on how Stonehenge was constructed and used, alternative interpretations continue to thrive in books, documentaries, and online forums. This episode traces the origins of these conspiracy theories, explores the evidence behind the monument’s construction and purpose, and unpacks why Stonehenge remains one of the most debated and mysterious ancient sites in the world.
