While researching new material for a blog, I was surprised to discover we have our own Stonehenge in New Zealand.
Astronomy is the oldest of all sciences and is the cornerstone to the rise of civilization. It gave mankind an understanding of time and the seasons which lead to knowledge allowing for correct planting and harvesting.
Stonehenge Aotearoa (eventfinda.co.nz)
Just like the famous 4000 year old Stonehenge on the Salisbury Plains in England, New Zealand’s Stonehenge, or Stonehenge Aotearoa as it’s called, is a huge astronomical clock constructed from circles of stone. However, the local version is not just a replica of the famous English original. Both circles are 30 metres in diameter and have the same task but that is where the similarities between the English and New Zealand henges end.
