Stonehenge.

Stonehenge. submitted by AlanButler on 26th Jun 2024. My Dec 2022 “False” illumination photo is used to illustrate Sarah Knapton’s 21 Dec 2023 on-line article “Winter solstice sunset was crucial Stonehenge date for ancient Britons, not famous sunrise, say experts. It demonstrates how, with “reverse-viewing” in the direction of midsummer sunrise, Stonehenge’s midwinter sunset alignment was communally witnessed as the final rays of the setting sun, channelled through The Great Trilithon, accurately illuminating the Heel Stone.
