Built
by a native American culture or a migrant
European population? No one
knows for sure.
A maze of man-made chambers,
walls and ceremonial meeting places, America's Stonehenge is one of the
oldest man-made constructions in the United States. (over 4000 years
old).
Archaeological Excavation at the site
has uncovered an amazing range of historic and pre-historic artifacts-from
stone tools, pottery and ancient old world scripts to 18th and 19th
century house wares, and manacles (possibly removed from slaves who used
the site as a stop on the underground railroad in the 1830's and
1840's.
Along with it's astronomical
alignments, America's Stonehenge continues to be one of the most
fascinating archaeological discoveries of the
century.

America's Stonehenge is one
of the largest and possibly oldest megalithic (stone-constructed) sites in
North America. Like Stonehenge in England, America's Stonehenge was built
by ancient people well versed in astronomy and stone construction. It has
been determined that the site is an accurate astronomically aligned
calendar. It was and still can be used to determine specific solar and
lunar events of the year.
