摘要
We are pleased to present the latest account of the sequence of burial and construction at the site of,Stonehenge, deduced by its most recent excavators and anchored in time by the application of Bayesian radiocarbon modelling. Five prehistoric stages are proposed, of varied duration, and related by our authors to neighbouring monuments in the Stonehenge environs. While it may never be possible to produce a definitive chronology for this most complex of monuments, the comprehensive and integrated achievement owed to these researchers has brought us much closer to that goal. h is from this firm platform that Stonehenge can begin its new eta of Communication with the public at large.
