      I also read Stonehenge started as a burial ground by migrants from the Aegean region. They took their culture of building monoliths to that area. So even if the history was lost for some time, Stonehenge has Mediterranean roots and is founded in ancient times. It needs to be rewritten as an Ancient Wonder.

      @@zeztro Exactly right. The Temple of Kukulcan, in the Mayan cultural city of Chichen Itza, was built sometime between 700-1100 AD. There's so much focus on the European Middle Ages or so called "dark ages" and not nearly enough focus on the incredible advancements in science, math, medicine and architecture in Mesoamerica, China, Japan or during the Islamic Golden Age. Also, in Africa in the 1300s, the richest person to ever live, King Mansa Musa, is barely known outside of what's now Mali, where his kingdom was located. He was so rich that when he went on pilgrimage to Mecca with an entourage of over 25,000 people, he carried over 1000 lbs of gold. When his massive group stopped in Egypt, he gave out so much gold to the poor that he caused a huge recession on gold that lasted for 10 years!!

      @IAYTD  Před 5 lety +5

      Hi there Marketingmagician. I didn't create the lists. The "Ancient" list was created for touring the Mediterranean so doesn't include other technically ancient sites, so really the "Middle Ages" list is when that list was created, even though several of these monuments are much older. Also, I just doublechecked the wiki site for Stonehenge and it mentions burial sites all over the place, so I'm not the only one who is getting that message.

Certainly there are several hundred burial mounds in the area and Parker reported the vines of 63 individuals that had been reinterred after being exhumed by Hawley. But as I said I don't believe it was primarily a burial site. The location and alignment with the solstices cannot be chance and are the feature most examined and discussed here.

      Giza Pyramids are from the 7 wonders of the ancient age, not the middle age and it's the only one still standing till this day

    You forgot the real reason for the Colosseum. To keep the people focused on events while the government did their real ish. Same reason arenas and colosseums still exist. Those were the "sports" back then. These are the sports of now.
