Silbury Hill

Silbury Hill is a prehistoric mound located in Wiltshire, England, United Kingdom. It is the largest known Neolithic henge in the UK and is part of the larger Stonehenge landscape. Burial mounds, also known as barrows in England, are artificial hills of earth and stones built over the remains of the dead. Silbury Hill is thought to have been used for ritual or ceremonial activity between approximately 2000 and 1600 BCE. Excavations have revealed evidence of feasts, timber circles, and a road leading to the river, suggesting it was part of a complex linked to nearby sites like Stonehenge.12
