| Summary: | Stone circles conjure up a lost world of mysterious ceremonies, druid astronomers and pagan dances. How such mighty rings were constructed has long baffled archaeologists and antiquarians. The most famous stone circle is Stonehenge in England, but expert Hugh Newman shows that these incredible architectural monuments can be found around the world, with more than a thousand of them appearing on the British Island alone.
