The following quote is from Outlander by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 2, “Standing Stones.” Copyright ©️1991 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“There were no signs of burial in the miniature henge atop the hill. By ‘miniature,’ I mean only that the circle of standing stones was smaller than Stonehenge; each stone was still twice my own height, and massive in proportion.
I had heard from another tour-guide at Stonehenge that these stone circles occur all over Britain and Europe—some in better repair than others, some differing slightly in orientation or form, all of purpose and origin unknown.”
