Over 100,000 megaliths covered the French region of Bretagne, to the point where it once resembled a forest of stone. It is the world’s largest megalithic metropolis.

And yet in central Portugal and the isles of Scotland there exists the same phenomenon. Why were these three locations chosen above all others by Neolithic architects? And why were stones as tall as sixty feet transported as much as forty miles from their quarry?

In his latest documentary, bestselling author and researcher Freddy Silva takes an in-depth look at these regions — along with southern England — and finds a common thread: the selective choice of stone, identical design and construction methods, folklore, experiences of altered states, and legends of gods arriving from the sea. Add an understanding of gravity anomalies, electromagnetism, fault lines, a migration from the Black Sea region, and a language fingerprint originating in Armenia, and seemingly unconnected ideas converge to explain who masterminded this megalithic enterprise. And why.
