The Truth About America’s So-Called Stonehenge

In 2007, an underwater archaeologist made a shocking discovery beneath Lake Michigan: a mysterious ring of massive stones—some weighing over a ton—arranged in a deliberate formation. One boulder even appeared to feature a carving of a mastodon, an animal extinct for over 10,000 years. The media quickly dubbed it “America’s Stonehenge”… but that label might be doing more harm than good.

In this episode, we dive into the truth behind this prehistoric structure: what it is, what it isn’t, and why calling it “Stonehenge” misrepresents a much older and more complex mystery. Is it a hunting trap? A ceremonial site? Or evidence of an ancient civilization lost beneath the Great Lakes? Join us as we explore one of North America’s most intriguing—and misunderstood—archaeological finds.
