Excavations at Stonehenge

Early research[edit] The first known excavations at Stonehenge were undertaken by Dr William Harvey and Gilbert North in the early 17th century. Both Inigo Jones and the Duke of Buckingham also dug there shortly afterwards. In 1666 the antiquarian John Aubrey could still see the central sunken hollow where the Duke of Buckingham’s pit had been filled. A few minor investigations followed. Further excavations at Stonehenge were carried out by William Cunnington and Richard Colt Hoare.
