A general view from the southeast of the famous monument Stonehenge, in Wiltshire, England. Numerous stone monoliths can be seen standing upright and others are on the ground. A wire fence surrounds the monument in the foreground. Many of the stones support other stones, held in place with tongue in groove joints. Archaeologists believe Stonehenge in its earliest form may have been constructed about 3100 BCE, though its builders and their motives are unknown, (1910).
