What is a stone circle?




A stone circle is an ancient monument of standing stones. It is not always precisely circular, often forming an ellipse, or more rarely a setting of four stones laid on an arc of a circle. The sizes of the standing stones has a lot of diversity. The number of stones can vary between 4 and 60. (Thanks Wikipedia)
