Archaeologists still do not know what wooden columns are arranged in circles. They only found a 3-year-old on the plug of an ax in the middle of the site. Maybe, the baby is a sacrifice .
Archaeologist Dr. Nicola Snashall of the National Trust said that Woodhenge was built on pits. When pulling up the wooden pillar, the chalk remains lumpy in the hole. " We think radar data recorded 200 or more wooden columns that are located in the ground."

There is a theory that Woodhenge is the settlement of Stonehenge's stone masons located 3 km away. But this theory was quickly rejected by Stonehenge which was built 4,500 years ago. That means these wooden columns were erected before it could be the builder's house Stonehenge.

So far, the purpose of building Woodhenge and why wooden pillars are extracted is still a mystery. There are also opinions that this may be a medieval church or a house with a roof used for many purposes.
The Woodhenge construction structure can mean the religious development of mankind and how the community is organized and related to Stonehenge.
