Stonehenge | Did a Tribe of Giants Soften and Carve the Megaliths? | Megalithomania

Rev. Robert Gay, who authored 'A Fool’s Bolt Soon Shot at Stonehenge' in 1666 (published in 1725) wrote about a ferocious prehistoric culture of giant warriors whose earliest incarnations were as semi-divine beings. The later breed of the 'Cangick Giants' became fully human, with their skeletal remains found all over the West Country. The Cangi were traditionally the builders of Stonehenge but were based in Somerset, their territory reaching to Wiltshire. Moreover, he wrote: “The Cangick Giants having conquered, triumphed over their enemies…they thought it was expedient to erect this Monument, as their ‘trophy’. That monument was Stonehenge.” According to the author this is not the only reason why Stonehenge was called The Giants’ Dance, as he states “this triumphant singing and dancing together, as the time and place of victory, was the common practice of the ancients.” Descriptions of Stonehenge have said over the centuries that it looks like a circle of giants arm in arm dancing in a victorious circle of celebration.

The Cangi, according to Gay, had metallurgy skills and actually softened, powdered, super-heated and moulded the stones of Stonehenge using “engines.” This hints at advanced technology that may have been inspired by Merlin having used ‘gears’ or ‘engines’ in moving the sarsens from Killarus in Ireland to Salisbury Plain. The softening and manipulation of stone raises an interesting point because over the last two decades Joseph Davidovits, a French materials scientist has been pioneering the theory that many megalithic sites were not constructed, but rather ‘moulded’ using powdered stone. He claims to have proven that the blocks of the Great Pyramid in Egypt were created in this way with what he calls geopolymer cement. It may also indicate why the mighty sarsens of Stonehenge have what look like ‘scoop’ marks on them as though the stone had been softened then carved before they hardened. This ‘scooping’ technique is also found in Machu Picchu and Ollantaytambo in Peru, and in Aswan Quarry in Egypt. Gay claimed that the conglomerate monoliths of Stanton Drew Stone Circles in Somerset were moulded from gravel and placed in a circular configuration by these giants. Also, furnaces were known to have been used by the Canaanite giants and the Cyclopes of Greece.

The most wonderful opportunity to tell people that the Welsh refer to Stonehenge as CÔR Y CEWRI (The Choir/Meeting of GIANTS)… 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Means a lot you mentioned it 😊

[beverly]

Thank You for the aerial view. Never got see that before. Many Blessings for the work you do 🙏🙏🏆🏆🌈🌈

I watched a stonehenge tour about a decade ago when youtube and stonehenge were much different. The group guide talked about electromagnetic anomalies at the site, as well as an instance where one of the stones would vibrate, and that in the past one of the stones had a spring of fresh water within or right next to it, and people in the past would use it and it had strange healing properties. I think this video is also where I learned that stonehenge isn't even in it's original place, and has been "restored" multiple times, and some stones are fake now.

I've been there a few times and have never noticed that 'face' etched out of the stone before. Can't wait to go back and look for it. Great vid, thanks Hugh!

[amfinc]

Great details Hugh, thanks as always.

[ericpilkington]

2:42 is it for certain that this part is not a modern restauration with concrete?

[topgunexcel]

Something that needs to be taken in is that the site has been extensively repaired and some of the re-erected stones were broken. Rods inserted in drill holes and geo concrete were used to re-assemble.

Hughy Newman and the Giants are my favourite band

[martinhertsius]

The "spiral" pattern looks like a big chunk of the stone has chipped off, so probably not too strange (compare it to how glass behaves).
The scoop marks though... Incredibly similar to Aswan! :-o

[MiuMiuKoo]

Excellent presentation and camera shots That face is fascinating Thank you for sharing 🤗👍

[bryandavis]

Got an among the stones visit booked for May, can't wait 😁

[terrydabill]

I heard you on the higher side chats & I really enjoyed the show, I never knew the British isles had so many giants stories and connections very interesting to hear.🙂

[MeRiaNevaMynd]

Thank you, incredible additional information.
I had actually forgotten Stonehenge was once called The Giant's Dance ❤️ it's like you are bringing original Stonehenge back to life ❤️✨️❤️

[barrycrump]

I thought entering Stonehenge was prohibited. How did you gain such close-up access to the site? What constitutes a private tour and how much does it cost to arrange one for myself and a few interested friends?

[TheTimeDetective]

Hugh, are the inside faces of Stonehenge smoother than the outside faces, as on Indian temples? I picked up that this might be the case, in the video. Ganga giants = Ganges River. YES, the Cangi giants building it as a memorial was mixed up with the later legends of Hengist (hanging) building the Stone Hang. NICE!

[davidfrank]

Scoop marks still puzzle me. How can you undercut with scoop marks, like there are under the obelisk in Egypt? The one that was not fully undercut and pulled out of the ground.

Does your team look at the geometry of these sites? I call it God's geometry that of creation. The geometry starts over at the pyramids with polygons, energy, sound and time for example. I see geometry in the making all over the world at temples and megalithic sites like this. I read the bible so can relate the time and Wrath seen everywhere but do you guys study geometry? Knowing why the structures were built has its own fantastic educational story. Love your programs thanks.

[bokbok]

If we were looking at concrete no one would be saying giants used softening techniques. They would say it was poured and shaped during curing.
These stones are just a different form of concrete. Much more logical than giants and softening.

[weekendmom]

Some of the stones were erected in Wales and then moved for unknown reasons to the Salisbury plain.
