How Stonehenge's stones reached the site 5,000 years ago: New study might have an answer to the puzzle

Scientists have pinpointed the origin of Stonehenge's Altar Stone to Scotland, a staggering 700 kilometers away. This six-ton sandstone, unlike local rocks, was not transported by ice, as glacial paths and timing don't align. Evidence now strongly suggests a deliberate, complex human effort involving overland and water transport, highlighting incredible ancient ingenuity and coordination.
