Raising the Sarsens at Stonehenge
“Salisbury Plain, c. 2500 BCE. Wessex builders haul a great sarsen across timber rollers under a flat gray sky. Foreground shows leather ropes biting into shoulders and chalk dust rising from sledges; midground reveals the partial henge already standing with lintels balanced atop trilithons; barrows pock the horizon and a chalk avenue runs toward the Avon.”
