Brian John has led expeditions to Iceland and Greenland. His latest book is about the mystical bluestones at Stonehenge. The bluestone myth is that the spotted dolerite bluestones were chosen by the Stonehenge builders for their unique characteristics. They originated from a single source, Carn Meini in Pembrokeshire’s Preseli Hills. There is no natural explanation for their presence on Salisbury Plain, according to archaeologists. So the 80 bluestones must have been hauled from Preseli to Stonehenge by a tremendous human effort, indicating some mystical, spiritual or therapeutic significance in the source, the stones, or both. Brian has another theory.
