NHD Bibliography

My Annotated Bibliography. It was created during the duration of NHD.

Welcome:

Secondary Source Books:

Fowles, John, Mr., and Barry Brukoff, Mr. The Enigma of Stonehenge. New York: Summit Books, 1980. This great book provided a lot of current history of Stonehenge. It tells what their doing to it and how their studying it right now. It also provided me with a lot of great pictures. It also had some of the pictures when the Stones were moved. It also shows the development of Stonehenge in words and pictures.

Hawkins, Gerald S., Mr. The first aerial picture of Stonehenge, Stonehenge III from the heel stone. An Oil painting on a canvas. 1973. Beyond Stonehenge. By Gerald S. Hawkins, Mr. New York: Harper and Row Publishers Inc., 1973. Beyond Stonehenge was a fictional story with a lot of good pictures. Some parts of the story helped me because it told me some things about Stonehenge and its history. I used this book mainly because of the picture.

Kostof, Spiro, Mr. “Stonehenge.” A History of Architecture. By Spiro Kostof, Mr. New York: Oxford University Press, 1985. This was a very large book that provided a lot of information. Although it had scattered information, I still managed to find some information on the formation and building of Stonehenge. The book also told me about the stones and their purpose. Every Stone is unique and learning about them helped me a lot.

Lace, William W., Mr. Stonehenge, the Mystery Library. N.p.: Thomson Gale, 2003. Stonehenge, The Mystery Library told me a lot about the Megaliths in the first few chapters. Then it informed me about the purpose of Stonehenge (or what scientists assumed) and what it was like in the center. It told me about most of the stones located around Stonehenge like the bluestones, arranged outside of the trilithons, which are made of sandstone called Sarcen.

Roop, Peter, Sir, and Connie Roop, Madam. Stonehenge, Opposing Viewpoints. San Diego: Greenhaven, 1989. This book showed me a lot of different theories about how Stonehenge was built. It told me Who built Stonehenge, How it was built, and Why it was built. It told me how they moved the bluestones because it was carried from far away. Stonehenge, Opposing Viewpoints tells about the history of Stonehenge and the current status of Stonehenge.

Ross, David, Mr. “Stonehenge.” Britain Express. 16 Nov. 2004 <http://www.britainexpress.com/History/Stonehenge.htm>. The Bluestones: About 2200 B.C. the Beaker People swung into action. Perhaps to impress their superiority on the local population, they began the process of building a double ring of stones inside the henge. These “bluestones” were transported all the way from southern Wales, a distance of several hundred miles.

Early building: There was a henge at the Stonehenge site before the Bronze Age, built sometime around 2800 B.C. The stone now called the Heel Stone lay outside the ditch. Inside the henge a ring of 56 holes were dug, called today “Aubrey Holes” after a 17th century “discoverer” of the site. These holes were filled with cremation materials.
