      Maybe we should be calling it “Stone/Henge” then

        Or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Stone plus Henge. Henge is not a prehistoric megalith unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning Stone system made useful by the Stone corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full megalithic structure as defined by neolithic hunter-gatherers.

      but they weren’t destroying the rock, right? they were just splitting it up into smaller rocks. I bet they’d have a heck of a time actually destroying that rock.

      pretty undestructible if you ask me? /s

        It can only be destroyed by throwing it into the heart of Mount Doom. Or other volcano.

    I mean if it was built out of anything else the destructible material has been looted or destroyed by now. You can say this about pretty much every old thing.
