On the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides stands one of Europe's most remarkable Neolithic monuments: the Calanais Standing Stones. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore what these stones reveal about the people who built them around 3000 BCE—roughly contemporary with Stonehenge, but far less known. They discuss how the stones align with the movements of the sun and moon, the theories of astronomer Alexander Thom, and the site's connection to the wider megalithic culture that stretched from Orkney to Brittany. They also examine the evidence for ritual and astronomical use, the local folklore that named the stones, and the ongoing debate about whether Callanish was a calendar, an observatory, or a sacred space. Along the way, they touch on the excavation history, the preservation challenges, and what the site means for modern Scottish identity. A thoughtful look at a place that links Scotland's prehistoric past to its present. #CallanishStones #Calanais #StandingStones #Neolithic #IsleOfLewis #OuterHebrides #Megalithic #StoneCircle #AlexanderThom #Astronomy #PrehistoricScotland #Orkney #Stonehenge #Archaeoastronomy #ScottishHistory #Megalith #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
