Re: Mike Pitts on the forthcoming Stonehenge Live on Channel 5 TV by Anonymous on Tuesday, 21 June 2005

Hello, seen the show yesterday.
Two questions:
1. About the name 'Henge' so NOT explained satisfactory yesterday by 'the experts'. Couldn't it just mean 'portal' or 'door'? (comparing with 'hinge'). Dunno what it would be a door to or from for those people back then, but to us is still is, if only a portal to eons passed.

2. Is there an explanation better than the vague 'they already buried people here' as to why the site is so interesting it attracts people for many millenia? Why is this site so popular, even the wrecked stonehenge is more popular nowadays then sites in better state.
What is with this exact geographic place? For what reason would people be busy with the same place for more than 1000 years, must be a very straightforward and compelling reason! Explain more deeply please.
