The stone circle is exactly what the name suggests: stand in a group of stones in a circle.
Stone circles throughout history, in different places and for different reasons.
In Britain, more than 1,000 circles have survived to this day. Perhaps the world-famous Stonehenge is a good example.
It is believed that most stone circuses are places where people live, but most likely were not used for ceremonies, social events or religious purposes.
Later stone circles were made of earth or wood, but in the designs stone was the main material.
Some stone circles were up to 25 meters wide, but circles up to 400 meters wide were made by more skilled or ambitious builders.
The most recent circles, dating from around 1600 BC, are quite small and were probably built by individual families for personal use.
By 1500 BC, some circles were being built as society changed and religious practice moved in a different direction.
Today, these silent monuments serve as a reminder of our planet.
