Stonehenge Restored Reproduction after the original installation at Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England (ca. 2750-1500 BCE). This Neolithic monument is a ceremonial center possibly for measuring the summer solstice for farming purposes. The term henge means a circle formed by stones or wooden posts surrounded by a ditch with an embankment. By this period, formerly nomadic small groups had coalesced into larger, organized farming units. This monument is evidence of their unified dedication to quarry stones from up to 150 miles away and erect them (up to 24 feet tall) into this memorable formation. Made from hand painted resin, 8.75"L x 8.75"W x 2.25"H.
