Derek Olson starts out this episode by breaking down the exciting news of the recent discovery of a huge megalithic complex in near Huelva, Spain called "La Torre-La Janera," that features more than 500 standing stones. Next we will explore the overall ancient stone circle phenomenon that spreads from Turkey and Israel in the Middle East, to the western most corners of Europe in Portugal. We will explore answers to the questions - Why were stone circles built? How were stone circles built? What mystical properties do stone circles possess? Who built the stone circles? This last question will lead us into a section where we talk about the legends, oral traditions and even ancient writings that document the existence of an ancient race of giants who lived and ruled among ancient people throughout Europe, namely the Celts.
