Episode 94: Stonehenge and the Ancient Sites No One Can ExplainOn Salisbury Plain, a ring of enormous stones has stood for five thousand years. Some weigh twenty-five tons. The smaller bluestones were transported from Wales — over 450 kilometres away. They were moved, erected, and precisely aligned with the movements of the sun and moon by people who had no written language, no metal tools, and no wheel. And Stonehenge is not alone. Tonight we examine the ancient sites that continue to generate questions that science has not fully answered.This episode explores:* The 2025 peer-reviewed study confirming that Stonehenge's bluestones were transported by humans — not glaciers — from Wales* The January 2026 Curtin University research using mineral fingerprinting to confirm the Altar Stone's Welsh origin* The astronomical precision of Stonehenge — the summer solstice sunrise alignment accurate to fractions of a degree* The global pattern of megalithic sites sharing astronomical alignments — Newgrange, Puma Punku, Easter Island, Göbekli Tepe* The engineering problem — how twenty-five ton stones were moved and lifted without machinery we can identify* Why mainstream archaeologists accept that early humans were more capable than previously thought without accepting the lost civilisation hypothesisFor believers, the engineering precision, the astronomical sophistication, and the global consistency of megalithic architecture point to a shared knowledge source that conventional history has not accounted for. For mainstream archaeologists, the sites demonstrate extraordinary human organisation across millennia — remarkable, but entirely human.What is certain: Stonehenge stands. It was built by people who knew exactly what they were doing. And we are still working out how.Keywords: Stonehenge mystery conspiracy, who built Stonehenge, ancient sites unexplained, Stonehenge aliens theory, megalithic engineering mystery, Stonehenge astronomical alignment, ancient architecture advanced, Göbekli Tepe connection, LiDAR ancient discoveries, lost civilisation Stonehenge
