Stonehenge's large stones has revealed some information about why their material resists damage due to weather.</span> <span data-start-time='15438' data-end-time='30188'>Researchers recently described a series of examinations that gave a look inside one of Stonehenge's 52 large stones, known as sarsens.</span> <span data-start-time='30188' data-end-time='43146'>The researchers studied a core sample taken from one of the sarsens, called Stone 58, during repair work in the 1950s. </span> <span data-start-time='43146' data-end-time='54250'>It was kept by its owner in the United States for many years before being returned to Britain for research in 2018.</span> <span data-start-time='54250' data-end-time='61417'>The examination gave information about Stone 58's inside structure. </span> <span data-start-time='61417' data-end-time='66292'>The sarsens are made of stone called silcrete.</span> <span data-start-time='66292' data-end-time='76063'>This silcrete is made of very small pieces of quartz held tightly together by quartz crystals.</span> <span data-start-time='76063' data-end-time='82333'>Quartz resists damage even when exposed to wind and weather.</span> <span data-start-time='82333' data-end-time='90813'>David Nash of the University of Brighton led the study that appeared in the journal PLoS ONE.</span> <span data-start-time='90813' data-end-time='103938'>Nash said the sarsen’s inside structure explains the stone's resistance to weathering and why it made an ideal material for monument-building.”</span> <span data-start-time='103938' data-end-time='115333'>In a remarkable act of engineering, the sarsens were put up in Wiltshire, England, around 2500 BC. </span> </p></div><div class='control-buttons-sticky'
