New research shows that Stonehenge, which is among the most popular structures in the world, was an emblem of unity among the inhabitants of ancient Britain. Historians have been uncertain about the reason for the construction of Stonehenge, which is located in Wiltshire in England. However, recent findings indicate that the stones used to build the structure, which is believed to be close to 5,000 years old, came from areas as distant as Wales and Scotland. This suggests that the monument was constructed with the involvement of inhabitants of various areas of Britain, signifying unity and cooperation.
