Stonehenge by Design: Engineering the Ancient Monument

A STEM-focused journey into Stonehenge, tracing its five construction phases—from timber posts and Aubrey Holes to the bluestones and the great sarsen circle. We’ll unpack the engineering feats (no wheels, mortise-and-tenon joints, tongue-and-groove lintels), the evidence for celestial alignments, cremation practices, isotope clues of far-traveled individuals, and how Stonehenge served as a dynamic ritual and social hub linking communities across Britain and Europe.
