*How Was Stonehenge Built?*

Today we looked into the development of Ancient Greece, and the descendants of the people ho developed Greece. We focused mostly on the development of Megalithic structures around 3500 B.C. We looked deeper into the the monument Stonehenge, which was built even before even Ancient Greece or Ancient Egypt was even developed! Each of the stones in Stonehenge is about 18 feet high, and weigh up to 50 TONS EACH. But even though we know so much about the prehistory of Greece and the barbarians, archaeologists and historians still are clueless to how Stonehenge was built in the first place? How in the world were the barbarians able to drag 50 ton stones many miles to a location, then stand them upright and place another stone sideways on top of them? People are still amazed to to how this could have been achieved.
We also learned about the geography of Greece. Greece is a peninsula with over 1400 islands in the Aegean and Ionian seas. The Aegean sea is to the right of Greece, or between Greece and Turkey. The Ionian sea is to the left of Greece, or between Italy and Greece. Greece is very mountainous, covering over 3/4 of the region. Many Greeks were good as sailing because Greece learned to adapt to the many mountains blocking their path from one side of the land to the other. Many Greeks simply sailed over to where they wanted to go, rather than traveling over all of the mountains to get to your destination. Traveling by boat made shipping supplies much easier.
Another thing about Greece, is that it was difficult to communicate between the far off city-states. The rough terrain made is hard to tell information to other people throughout the country.
