(C) Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument located in the English county of Wiltshire, at the centre of the most dense complex of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments in England. Archaeologists 62 that the iconic stone monument was erected around 2500 BC. One recent theory, however, has suggested that it may have been erected at the site as early as 3000 BC. The site and its surroundings were 63 the UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 1986. There is little or no direct evidence for the construction techniques used by the Stonehenge builders. Over the years, various authors have suggested that supernatural or anachronistic methods were used, usually asserting that the stones were impossible to move 64 . However, conventional techniques using Neolithic technology have been demonstrably effective at moving and placing stones of a similar size. Proposed functions for the site include usage as an astronomical observatory, or as a religious site. More recently two major new theories have been proposed. Professor Mike Parker Pearson, head of the Stonehenge Riverside Project, has suggested that Stonehenge was part of a ritual landscape and was joined to Durrington Walls by their corresponding avenues and the River Avon. He suggests that the area around Durrington Walls Henge was a place of the living, whilst Stonehenge was a domain of the dead. A journey along the Avon to reach Stonehenge was part of a ritual passage from life to death, to celebrate past ancestors and the recently 65 .

They argue that this 66 the high number of burials in the area and for the evidence of trauma deformity in some of the graves. However, they do concede that the site was probably multifunctional and used for ancestor worship as well.

有位網友提到選過去完成式"had believed"的原因→that 子句中有"was"

但其實,一個句子的兩個子句中,時態不見得要一致。

例：They thought (that) the novel worth reading. (前面子句的動詞是過去式,但後面子句的動詞是現在式)


個人認為, 真正的線索在於第三句話:  One recent theory, however, has suggested that it may have been erected at the site as early as 3000 BC.

( 然而，最近的一種理論表明，它可能早在公元前3000年就已在該地點豎立起來。)


→表示出考古學家們"所相信的這件事"是發生在"最近的理論"之前,所以選過去完成式~
