Every year, a million visitors are drawn to the Salisbury Plain in southern England, to gaze upon a mysterious circle of stones. Stonehenge may be the best-known and most mysterious relic of prehistory. Now investigations inside and around Stonehenge have kicked off a dramatic new era of discovery and debate. Who built Stonehenge? What was its purpose? How did prehistoric people quarry, transport, sculpt, and erect the giant stones? A new generation of researchers are tackling these questions.

This was a nice update with all the current information, theories and guesses unravelling the mystery and origins of Stonehenge - it was fantastic to see the new idea for moving the large stones, learning about how wood was used to represent the living and the important sites that surround stonehenge. It's too bad the bone analysis wasn't fully complete for this video.
