Ancient Village Lifts Some of Stonehenge's Mystery [audio 6min]

One of the most enduring and mysterious monuments in the British Isles is Stonehenge, a circle of some 30 huge stones located 100 miles southwest of London. Until recently, very little was known about the site, except that it was built about 4,500 years ago, at the time of the Egyptian pyramids. Now, new evidence has made Stonehenge's origins much clearer. Funded by the National Geographic Society, archaeologists have uncovered a nearby ancient settlement that once housed hundreds of people -- possibly the builders of Stonehenge. Archaeologist Mike Parker Pearson and his team have detected a valley full of houses, dating to 2600-2500 BC. Pearson believes that the people who lived in the Durrington Walls houses were responsible for building Stonehenge. Report by Rob Gifford.
