“Possession is nine-tenths of the law”
If you believe that old adage and you’re a lawyer who can defend it in court, the people who run Stonehenge (the English Heritage Trust) may want to talk to you. A group of Welsh nationalists and the owner of a Welsh tourist attraction want British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to return Stonehenge to Wales, where the bluestones were cut from a quarry 5,000 years ago and staged prior to it being relocated to Salisbury Plain, where it stands today. If Johnson refuses, the group will demand “a few million pounds” as compensation. Do they have a claim? Can England claim “possession is nine-tenths of the law”? Doesn’t Boris Johnson have enough problems to deal with? Can he dump this one on the royal family?

Visitors will dive into the science, history and mythology of those artifacts. The biggest mysteries of Stonehenge stones as tall as 23 feet that weigh over 50,000 pounds and were brought to the site in Wildshire, England, from the Preseli Mountains in Wales will not be making the trip. But there will be plenty more to discover in Denver.
“We’re fortunate to bring this world-class exhibition to Denver and share its wonder with the Colorado community and beyond,” says George Sparks, DMNS president and CEO, in the statement. “What is truly remarkable is the depth of knowledge we now have regarding what the silent and massive stones tell us. With the use of cutting-edge technology, we now have answers to questions that have mystified for literally thousands of years. We can’t wait to share this fantastic journey through ancient mysteries and modern discoveries with our guests.”
