Just three miles from Stonehenge, archaeologists have made a remarkable discovery which sheds new light on the history of prehistoric religion.
For decades, it has been known that solar alignments formed a crucial part of the design of Stonehenge – but now, excavations near the world-famous monument have revealed that sun worship was a significant part of the Stonehenge area’s religious practice at least 450 years before the main phase of Stonehenge was constructed.
