rightfully yours eh?
my brother reminded me of something so i had a lok at stonehenges age, dated to be ATLEAST 10,000 years old...tell me, where were all the welsh back then?
ok you probably dont know, i however do, ireland...
yeah, wales was inhabited by either A; no-one anyway.
or more likely B: the brits.
the brits built it over 10,000 years ago, we dragged a dozen honking great rocks across the country, then put them on end to make a damn sun dial, you want it, you come and get it the way we took it, with a couple dozen people and some rope.

as for the arc, its supposed to be in egypt (under the great sphinx suposedly) and it werent radiation, it was holy spirit stuff.

I love the accuracy of that statement, seeing as first off Stonehenge isnt 10,000 years old. Its somewhere around 5000 years old. And secondly it is a known fact that Wales was inhabited around 250,000 bc (The lower paeolithic age) But settlement didnt really begin until 10,000 years ago.
Which im afraid completly proves you wrong.

Good job my fellow Welshman.

I think Stonehenge is kind of pretty and soothing. I feel just peaceful when I see pictures of Stonehenge, so should I ever visit the actual place, I think I will be quite calm for a while.

I don't mean to offend any Welsh people as I'm quite fond of you, but I think Stonehenge should stay where it is.

Practically speaking, once you move Stonehenge (if anyone can do it), it won't be Stonehenge anymore. The rocks will be different, that is for sure. The other part of Stonehenge is really where it is situated. There may have been something significant in where exactly it was built, couldn't there? Once you put it in some part of Wales where it wasn't built, that's not the Stonehenge you know and something may have been destroyed in the process.

On a more mannerful speaking, I think it would be more gracious to just let England keep it where it is. If the Welsh wanted it, they should have built it in Wales. So I see it like a gift from the Welsh to the English. I was taught if you give something to someone, you can't ask for it back because that would be point-blank rude.

More proof that it was Welsh is necessary, and the extent of how much Wales was involved in Stonehenge. The rocks might have been brought from Wales and that really about it with most work done by English.

Anyway, just because you do not own something does not mean that you never made it. Welsh people can still take great pride in the part they played in Stonehenge. People can't usually erase something like that if it happened and that is plenty reward.
