Study: Stonehenge Altar Stone May Have Been Transported by Glacier from Scotland

A new study proposes that the 6-ton Altar Stone at Stonehenge could have been moved from Scotland to England by glacial action during the last Ice Age, challenging previous theories of human transport. The claim is based on geological matching and glacial flow modeling, but the exact mechanism remains uncertain. This matters for understanding Neolithic construction methods and prehistoric human capabilities.
