Abstract

This article explores a possible purpose and origin of the Aubrey holes. After setting the framework for the Solar calendar, we uncover a new Solar Rectangle and elucidate the mystery of the 56 holes in the Aubrey circle. The Azimuths of sunrises and sunsets of this Solar Calendar at Stonehenge in ancient times were compared with the Azimuths obtained from the Calculator of Keisan and the SkEye Astronomy Software. Finally, we establish that a Solar calendar was the original purpose for which the Aubrey Circle of holes was constructed.
