Question

What led Ramilisonina to suggest a very different purpose for Stonehenge than other archaeologists had thought?

Answer 1

Answer:

She recalled that in Madagascar there was a custom of creating houses for the dead that matched the houses for the living. In this case, she thought that Stonehenge could be related to the concept of promoting a place for the dead, so that in a way, they remain in contact with the living.

Explanation:

For Ramilisonina, Stonehenge was built to signal the dead to a place destined for them, where they would be welcomed and could keep in touch with the living. This is because Stonehenge is connected to the south circle, which is the place where the living settled and it was a custom of ancient civilizations in madagascar, to create a place of habitation for the dead that matches the place where the living settled.
