Debunking the Stonehenge Calendar Theory.

A new paper by Italian and Spanish experts has rejected the theory that Stonehenge was a solar calendar, calling it "totally unsubstantiated" and based on "forced interpretations, numerology and unsupported analogies." The British researcher behind the theory, Professor Timothy Darvill, claims that Stonehenge's great sandstone slabs each represented a single day in a month, making the entire site a huge time-keeping device. The Italian and Spanish duo, however, reject this concept, calling it "numerology." Stonehenge remains one of the most prominent prehistoric monuments in Britain, and its purpose is still a mystery.
