" Stonehenge was erected at least before the close of the Bound-barrow 

 Period." It is therefore at least as old as the Bronze Age. The " original 

 holy object " enclosed by the triliths was perhaps a Sacred Tree.

Mentions 250 B.C. as a probable — or rather " latest possible " — date for the 

 " beginnings " of the erection of Stonehenge.

 "A most valuable contribution ... to the comparative history of 

 early religions, linking the pillar-worship of Crete with an almost universal 

 primitive cult, of which we find traces in the stone which Jacob set up at 

 Bethel." — Times.

 The knowledge of coins was brought to this country by the Belgic invasion, 

 about B.C. 200. The earliest British coins are a rude imitation of the 

 Greek, or more properly the Gaulish Philippus or Macedonian gold stater. 

 The British silver, copper, and tin coinages are mostly of later date, and 

 are derived from Greek, Gaulish, find Roman types.
