The correct response is: in 3 different phases over 1400 years, starting around 3,000 BCE.
Stonehenge was created in 3 different phases over 1400 years, starting around 3,000 BCE.
To determine the correct answer, we can break down the information given and look for clues.
The options mention "phases" and a time frame of 1400 years starting around either 3000 BCE or 30,000 BCE.
First, let's consider the time frame. 30,000 BCE is too early for Stonehenge, as it was built during the Neolithic period, which began around 10,200 BCE. Therefore, we can eliminate the options that mention 30,000 BCE.
Next, we need to determine the number of phases. The options mention either 1 phase or 2 phases.
Stonehenge was actually built in multiple phases, with construction starting around 3000 BCE. The initial phase involved the construction of the circular ditch and bank. This was followed by the second phase, during which the large standing stones were erected. There is also evidence of later modifications and additions during a third phase.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
- Stonehenge was created in 3 different phases over 1400 years, starting around 3000 BCE.
