The "builders" of these monuments were "the Celtic nations and the 

 people influenced by them," including Celts, Gaels, Umbrians, Iberians, 

 Belgee, and Scandinavians. The " purpose " of the stone circles was the 

 same as in India at the present day — "places of sacrifice."

Combats Dr. Fergusson's ideas. Stonehenge is connected with other stone 

 circles (such as Eoll-rich, etc.) by each having an outlying stone placed 

 to the N.E. They are all pre-Roman.

Of eighteen stone circles in Southern Britain, fifteen (including Stonehenge) 



have some point marked towards the N.E., indicating the rising-place of 

 the sun on the longest day.

An axis or main line running from N.E. to S.W. is indicated in the case of 



each of these circles. Stonehenge — with its outlying stone, the Friar's 



Heel — gave the key to this arrangement.

Suggests that the so-called " altar-stone " at Stonehenge was really the hase 

 of an altar formed by the " little blue-stone impost " standing upon two 

 small upright stones (pp. 283 — 85).

It is highly improbable that Stonehenge was ever part of a roofed-in 

 edifice : (see Oliver).

 and Stone Circles in England and Wales. Proc. Soc. Antiq.,

The bearings of certain conspicuous hill-tops as viewed from the centres of 

 the stone circles near them are given. " A line, five degrees south of N.E. 

 from the centre of Mitchellsfold circle, in Shropshire, passes over the 

 summit of Stapeley Hill to the Hoarstone circle (the hill being midway 

 between them) and thence to a group of three hills, and this line is precisely 

 that in which the " Friar's Heel " stands from the centre of Stonehenge."
