  I agree that they probably were moved from somewhere.

  Otherwise they would have just been there already which would be super weird.

  The British museum did a Stonehenge exhibit a few years ago, wasn’t expecting much but it was actually pretty fascinating. There’s tons of henges and a lot of the stone ones have rock from nowhere near where they were erected.

  Must have been difficult back in those times before they invented locally-sourced stone
