Résumé: Stonehenge is one of the best known, but most misunderstood, monuments in the world. Contrary to common belief, it was not a static, unchanging structure built by shadowy figures or Druids. Rather it represents the cumulative achievements of numerous generations who were woven into a complex and widespread network of cultural interactions, environmental change and belief systems. This publication, which accompanies the first exhibition about Stonehenge ever staged in London, uses the monument as a gateway to explore the communities and civilisations active at the time of its construction and beyond, between 4000 and 1000 BC. Recent archaeological findings regarding the origin of Stonehenge's striking 'bluestones' have reignited interest in this ancient wonder, the people who built it and the beliefs they held.
