"When a gap in historical knowledge occurs, people tend to fill it in with whatever they want to believe. Since the modern age began, the people of the village of Carnac have tried to fill in the missing pieces of 4,000 prehistoric stones, perfectly lined up in a series of fields in Brittany.
The Carnac Stones date back between 4500 B.C.E-3300 B.C.E, and are mysteriously lined up in three open field sites. Stretching almost a mile in length, the fields feature equally spaced stones ranging in size from one meter to 13 feet high. Although studies and analysis has been performed on the neolithic structures, there is no definitive answer to their purpose or creation."
