Nobody knows. Stonehenge is one of the world's greatest mysteries. There are theories that Stonehenge may somehow be related to the solar or lunar cycles or to the positions of the stars. But because nobody knows who built it or exactly when, it's difficult to know what was going on in the sky at the time of its construction to try and match Stonehenge to astronomical events
