Dutch Unearth Ancient 'Stonehenge' Site.

TL;DR Summary
Dutch archaeologists have discovered a 4,000-year-old religious site in the Netherlands, which included a burial mound serving as a solar calendar. The site, dubbed the "Stonehenge of the Netherlands," contained the remains of some 60 men, women, and children. The main mound is about 20 meters in diameter with its passages lined up to serve as a solar calendar. Scientists also discovered two other smaller mounds. The three mounds were used as burial sites for about 800 years. A single glass bead inside a grave was also found, which after analysis was shown to have originated in Mesopotamia, today's Iraq.
