The Ring of Brodgar is both the
most northerly and most famous henge on
Orkney. In it's original state,
it formed a circle of 60 stones. Now, only 36 stones
remain in position, either as uprights
or stumps. The stones are undecorated except
for 5 Norse runes and a cross on
a broken upright in the northern quadrant. Early
visitors believed that these henges
were sun temples, but recent research suggest
that they may be been designed
as lunar observatories.
