Did you know that Stonehenge was a healing ground? Timothy Darvill has a theory that stonehenge used to be a place of healing and not a place of death. Informing in this new theory Darvill points to old legends about a wizard who sarted transporting these stones to Salisbury Plain from the West Bristain. These stones were said to have healing properties such as fresh water springs found in the same location as the stones which were considered sacred. As recently as the 18th century people started to travel to stonehenge for the purpose of trying to break of a part of the rock as a good-luck project. Further evidence of stonehenge as a place of the healing is also taken from the excavation of some of the nearby burial sites. A number of these remains studies show evidence of a deceased person person having some kind of physical deformity or the evidence of a injury such as a fracture. These certain people might have come to Stonehenge to find healing.
