During the last decade, important new excavations and research have added greatly to our knowledge of Britain's most famous prehistoric monument. Within the last year, a new state-of-the-art visitors' center at Stonehenge has opened, displaying this new knowledge in a very effective way. A summary of the new findings and a PowerPoint tour of the new center will be provided by Fred Christensen, president of the East Central Illinois Archaeological Society and a frequent visitor to Britain's ancient sites.
This event is organized by the Central Illinois Society of the Archaeological Institute of America and hosted by the Spurlock Museum.
