For most of us, dinosaurs arrived pre-packaged: giant scaly monsters, all stomping around the same steamy swamp, until one unlucky asteroid ended the whole show. That image felt complete.

Stonehenge looks so solid and final that it almost feels like it should come with an instruction manual.

You’ve probably looked at pictures of ancient monuments and thought, “There’s no way they did that without modern equipment.” I get it. When you stand in front of massive stone walls that fit together with surgical precision, or gaze up at domes that have lasted for millennia, it’s hard to wrap your mind around the ...
