Episode Details

Stonehenge was built to mark the movements of the Sun. The huge stones were placed precisely to line up with the sunrise on the summer solstice and sunset on the winter solstice. 

巨石阵是为了标示出太阳的运动轨迹而建造。这些巨石经过精准排列，与夏至日出的方位和冬至日落的方位相对齐。

The discovery in the nearby village of Bulford was a much more simple construction. All that's left of it are two pits in the ground, about 120 metres apart, which archaeologists believe held large wooden posts. 

而在附近的巴尔福德村发现的这处遗址结构则简单得多。如今，它只剩下了地面上两个相距 120 米的土坑。考古学家们认为，这两个土坑里曾经竖立着大型木柱。

The holes were discovered about 10 years ago, but a new analysis examining how the posts were positioned, with the reconstruction of the ancient landscape, sky and horizon, reveals that they accurately lined upwith the Sun on the solstices.

这两个土坑早在十年前就已被发现，但一项新的分析通过研究木柱的排列方式，并结合对远古时期地形、天空和地平线的重建，发现它们与夏至和冬至时太阳的位置精确对齐。
