The Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument in Wiltshire, England. It consists of a ring of standing stones, believed by archaeologists to have been constructed from 3,000 BCE to 2,000 BCE.[1]
History[edit | edit source]
Stonehenge was secretly constructed atop the remains of an Isu vault known as the Isu Barracks, which later came to house the Sword of Eden called Excalibur. Sometime in the 870s, the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir visited the monument and discovered the underground vault, where she retrieved Excalibur after finding all the keys to the mechanism holding the sword in place. Eivor also used her Eagle Vision to find a hidden message inscribed on Stonehenge by the 6th-century Irish monk Brendan of Clonfert.[2]
In 1868, the British Assassins Jacob and Evie Frye had a picture of Stonehenge in their Train Hideout.[3]
In 2020, the Assassin historian Shaun Hastings, who supervised Layla Hassan as she relived Eivor's genetic memories, speculated that the Neolithic people had discovered the Isu Barracks and tried to recreate the shape above ground in the form of Stonehenge. The end result was jokingly called by Shaun "about as successful as a toddler trying to make a replica of Parliament with a handful of Greek yogurt."[4]
