Stonehenge Memory Palace

One of my fav podcasts is Sean Carroll’s ‘Mindscape’, this is an excellent episode with a very plausible explanation for the purpose of Stonehenge and other similar sites around the world:

It’s also a great explanation of how preliterate cultures maintain and transfer huge databases of information.

Enjoy!
