    Don’t you find it funny that no one ever claims that buildings built by white peolle were built by aliens?

        Those weren’t really white people. They were the Megolith builders that came before the farmers.

          Ah a “the Fae did it” enjoyer.

          No, Cheddar Man and his people predated the megaliths by 3,000 years. The builders of Stonehenge have a pretty solid remains and DNA profile and we know that they migrated from Anatolia. Also almost certainly intermarried with the descendants of Cheddar Man and Company, but they were literally Caucasian.

          Of course the megaliths werent just Stonehenge, and there probably was a period where you could find two distinct ethnic groups both enjoying raising huge rocks into neat patterns.

      Maybe it’s that there’s not many examples of architecture built by white people that seem humanly impossible.

      I’ve heard theories that stone henge was supernatural. (Like the other guy said)
