The Stonehenge mystery was solved, it's a sundial that marks certain events throughout the year, the stones are precisely aligned with sunrises and sunsets

[@insert_smiley]

isn't a cemetery? hundreds of skeletons of different ages was found around the area, there's also carvings of sorts in the stones.. edit.. i made the comment before watching the video but i also like to add that apparently the model used for the _calendar theory_ of sorts are incomplete because they said that the stonehenge was missing many pieces?

[@dywonnobles739]

Easily put a calender of the sorts

[@CrispyJacketStudios]

The experts still 100% either way although, the sun, time, burials and pagan rituals too the list. Many experts agree that it’s likely it has more than a single purpose.

Hopefully you found this interesting! Our final part will release next Wednesday!

[@shivakumarmb1894]

Ever heard of INDIA having TAJ MAHAL, GOLGUMBAZE, CAVE TEMPLES. If you have, you would not include those other as INDIAN wonders full your list of "wonders".

He did not write this list. "Many of the structures on these lists were built much earlier than the Medieval Ages but were well known." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wonders_of_the_World#Lists_from_other_eras

[@teseofabbri1812]

I mean the middle ages start with the fall of the Roman empire and they put the colosseum in this list

[@RonT222]

I also read Stonehenge started as a burial ground by migrants from the Aegean region. They took their culture of building monoliths to that area. So even if the history was lost for some time, Stonehenge has Mediterranean roots and is founded in ancient times. It needs to be rewritten as an Ancient Wonder.

@@bigiron7547 you clearly don't know the difference. The Ancient world is typically considered to be before the fall of the Roman Empire in 476 AD. The Chichen Itza pyramids were built around 600 AD

[@Cara-39]

@@zeztro Exactly right. The Temple of Kukulcan, in the Mayan cultural city of Chichen Itza, was built sometime between 700-1100 AD. There's so much focus on the European Middle Ages or so called "dark ages" and not nearly enough focus on the incredible advancements in science, math, medicine and architecture in Mesoamerica, China, Japan or during the Islamic Golden Age. Also, in Africa in the 1300s, the richest person to ever live, King Mansa Musa, is barely known outside of what's now Mali, where his kingdom was located. He was so rich that when he went on pilgrimage to Mecca with an entourage of over 25,000 people, he carried over 1000 lbs of gold. When his massive group stopped in Egypt, he gave out so much gold to the poor that he caused a huge recession on gold that lasted for 10 years!!

[@ericpierce6127]

The people who made the list during the Middle Ages didn’t know about the Mayan pyramids.

[@marcusv9691]

Search Chichén Itzá cap

[@warpspeedlol3248]

Gyberious hey ik this is a little late, the reason it makes a bird sound is because of the echo the clap sound waves make when they reach the top of the tower, it recreates a sound that sounds similar to a bird crowing.

[@avanideodhar9539]

"middle ages" .. starts with ancient rome.. oookeydokey

[@Catani99]

The Ancient ones are before that though.

[@jacklai8933]

Wut, your do know that the Middle Ages started with the end of Rome so technically Rome still counts. Besides tourists had only began after Rome.

[@Xdooda]

because ancient Rome is not that ancient or it's ancient, but there are more ancient ones so they have another last of the ancient wonders (and they are really ancient that they were all destroyed except Giza pyramids)

[@arunkk004]

There was a civilization when British was searching for fire, these was agriculture when people were hunting for food in the wild in France , there was a library long ago before letter 'a' was invented in english, there was a cave which was craved from top to bottom with unbelievable sculpture when most of the western people are living in caves.. it is so bad not to have any monument from South Asian countries(Taj Mahal is not a native Indian architecture). Visit the temples that's where real Indus valley civilization is..

[@Marketingmagician]

I frequently drive past Stonehenge and it's definately nothing to do with the middle ages. And it's not primarily a burial site.

[@IAYTD]

Hi there Marketingmagician. I didn't create the lists. The "Ancient" list was created for touring the Mediterranean so doesn't include other technically ancient sites, so really the "Middle Ages" list is when that list was created, even though several of these monuments are much older. Also, I just doublechecked the wiki site for Stonehenge and it mentions burial sites all over the place, so I'm not the only one who is getting that message.

[@Marketingmagician]

I Am Your Target Demographic. Certainly there are several hundred burial mounds in the area and Parker reported the vines of 63 individuals that had been reinterred after being exhumed by Hawley. But as I said I don't believe it was primarily a burial site. The location and alignment with the solstices cannot be chance and are the feature most examined and discussed here.
