I've been doing a little research and the earliest thing I can find so far is a reference to Stonehenge is in Henry of Huntingdon's Historium Anglorum , which was written in the mid 1100s. So it would appear Stonehenge has been around since at least this time.
Haven't found anything earlier.
It is possible that the tradition of setting up these rocks goes back to 1100s, point is that they are going to fall down when there is strong wind outside, that being why they got digged in and solidified the 50s. From what I remember you can also find similar stone structures (ruins) in Scotland, so to me it seems clear they been used in some religious ceremony by the Celtics, who worshiped stone.
Thanks for digging up some old references on it.
I would assume they got shaped they way they are because of erosjon, not because someone placed one stone on top of another stone. I am sure there been plenty of rock structures that have fallen a part in Utah, just no one notice once they fall down, at that stage it just be another rock on the ground, that gets covered in sand and dirt over time.
