The Callanish Standing Stones on the Isle of Lewis are believed to be over 5,000 years old – older than Stonehenge, perhaps even older than the Giza pyramids.. #scotland #ancient #stonecircle #callanish #isleoflewis #andythehighlander #highlandertours | Highlander Tours

The Calanais Standing Stones are one of Scotland's most magnificent and best preserved Neolothic Monument. Erected 5000 years ago, they predate England’s famous Stonehenge monument, and were an important place for ritual activity for at least 2,000 years. We don’t know why the standing stones at Calanais were erected, but our best guess is that it was a kind of astronomical observatory. What is your hypothesis?
