| Summary: | <p class="first" id="d9467015e69">Over the years archaeologists connected with the Institute of Archaeology and UCL
have made substantial contributions to the study of Stonehenge, the most enigmatic
of all the prehistoric stone circles in Britain. Two of the early researchers were
Petrie and Childe. More recently, colleagues in UCL’s Anthropology department – Barbara
Bender and Chris Tilley – have also studied and written about the monument in its
landscape. Mike Parker Pearson, who joined the Institute in
2012, has been leading a 10-year-long research programme on Stonehenge and, in this paper,
he outlines the history and current state of research.
