巨石陣是個(gè)謎樣的遺跡，一千多個(gè)遺跡幾乎遍布了整個(gè)英倫地區(qū)。這些巨大而高聳的石塊，被豎立在荒野，在山腳，甚至在過(guò)去的沼澤地區(qū)，而共通的特色是當(dāng)?shù)夭⒉皇鞘瘓?chǎng)，這些石塊就如同金字塔的石塊一樣，是從遠(yuǎn)處遷運(yùn)過(guò)來(lái)的。

數(shù)千年前的人似乎對(duì)石頭頗有一套辦法，他們不僅能輕松地搬運(yùn)它們，而且能隨心所欲地切割它們，安置它們，將它們放置到準(zhǔn)確的位置上。巨石陣的建造者，將原本粗糙的表面刨光后，銳利的邊緣也會(huì)磨掉成平滑的弧度。他們還會(huì)精巧地挖出孔洞，讓木樁能夠穿過(guò)。2021/5/993

現(xiàn)代考古學(xué)家們認(rèn)為，這些石陣有某種歷法和宗教上的目的，到目前為止，并沒(méi)有直接的文獻(xiàn)或紀(jì)錄，可以證明這件事情。但是考古學(xué)家們研究的結(jié)果，似乎可以稍稍解釋出秘密的一部份。Stonehenge位于英格蘭島南部Wilshire省，是最有名的巨石陣。根據(jù)推算，它已經(jīng)有四千年以上的歷史。巨石陣距離索爾斯巴利（Sailsbury）約十六公里，現(xiàn)在所剩下的石頭大大小小約有三十八個(gè)。石頭因?yàn)榻?jīng)過(guò)長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的風(fēng)吹日曬，表面產(chǎn)生了許多奇形怪狀的凹洞。巨石陣排列成一個(gè)同心圓的型態(tài)，石塊大致為長(zhǎng)方形，但卻直立在地面之上，高度超過(guò)十三英尺。而在相鄰的石塊之上，還有另外一塊石頭橫躺在頂部，或橫跨兩塊，或四塊，排列成一幅奇特的圖案。2021/5/994霍金斯認(rèn)為，巨石陣中幾個(gè)重要的位置，似乎都是用來(lái)指示太陽(yáng)在夏至那天升起的位置。而從反方向看剛好就是冬至日太陽(yáng)降下的位置。除了太陽(yáng)之外，月亮的起落點(diǎn)似乎也有記載。不過(guò)月亮的運(yùn)行不是像太陽(yáng)一樣年年周而復(fù)始，它有一個(gè)歷時(shí)十九年的太陰歷。在靠近石陣入口處有四十多個(gè)柱孔，排成六行，恰巧和月亮在周期中到達(dá)最北的位置相符，所以六行柱孔很有可能代表六次周期，也就是六個(gè)太陰歷的時(shí)間，觀測(cè)及紀(jì)錄月亮的運(yùn)行有一百多年的時(shí)間。

2021/5/995整個(gè)巨石陣的結(jié)構(gòu)是由環(huán)狀列石及環(huán)狀溝所組成，環(huán)狀溝的直徑將近一百公尺，再距離巨石陣入口處外側(cè)約三十公尺的地方，有一塊被稱為「席爾」的石頭單獨(dú)立在地上，如果從環(huán)狀溝向這塊石頭望去，剛好是夏至當(dāng)天太陽(yáng)升起的位置，因此部分的學(xué)者認(rèn)為巨石陣應(yīng)該是古代民族用來(lái)記錄太陽(yáng)的運(yùn)行。但是在一九六三年，波士頓大學(xué)天文學(xué)教授霍金斯提出了更驚人的理論，他認(rèn)為巨石陣事實(shí)上一部可以預(yù)測(cè)及計(jì)算太陽(yáng)和月亮軌道的古代計(jì)算機(jī)。當(dāng)時(shí)這個(gè)理論的確引起了極大的震撼及批評(píng)，但是近代學(xué)者的研究卻發(fā)現(xiàn)，他的說(shuō)法正確性越來(lái)越高。2021/5/9962bReadthearticlebelowandunderlinethelinkingwordsandphrases.Doyouthinkyouhavemadecorrectmatchesin2a?2021/5/997Stonehenge--CanAnyoneExplainWhyItIsThere?Stonehenge,arockcircle,isnotonlyoneofBritain'smostfamoushistoricalplacesbutalsooneofitsgreatestmysteries.Everyyearitreceivesmorethan750,000visitors.PeopleliketogotothisplaceespeciallyinJuneastheywanttoseethesunrisingonthelongestdayoftheyear.n.
