Dorset — as a neighbour county — must receive some attention from all who 

 are studying the antiquities of Wiltshire. The opening pages of the 

 Introduction to Vol. IV. of this important work deal with the great dykes, 

 Boman and Vicinal Ways, the White Horses of the hill-sides, and the 

 gigantic human figure which at Cerne Abbas Occupies a similar position. 

 Good descriptions and plans of the camps and barrows which line the 

 ridges and crown the hill-tops of the chalk ranges will be found scattered 

 through these portly volumes.

Stonehenge is the work of the "little folk," or dwarfs, who built the 

 chambered cairns, and who were akin to the Finns, Iberians, etc., being 

 a pre-Celtic race. It is not a temple ; and it was not erected by the 

 Druids. See chap, xii., pp. 268 — 286 ; with plate x., showing Stonehenge 

 in process of erection, the imposts being raised by a combination of 

 wedging and levering, as suggested to the author by Mr. C. H. Read and 

 Professor Flinders-Petrie.

See footnote on p. 83 : — " The custom of burning the dead, or cremation, 

 was almost universal among rude nations from the age of Homer to that 

 of Alfred. See the Heathen burial place, with its Hippodrome, etc., on 

 Salisbury Plain, vulgarly called Stonehenge, a corruption of Stone-ridge." 

 This derivation is defended on p. 87, by a reference to Dugdale's Monasticon 

 [Vol. III., p. 857], in which Prof. Ingram supposes Stonehenge to be 

 referred to under the name of Stoneridge in a grant of lands made by 

 King Athelstan to Wilton Abbey. [But see Hamper, etc.]
