impossible takes longer

They needed an altar stone for the centre of Stonehenge 4500 years ago. There was a 6 ton stone in the far north of Scotland so that was exactly the one, delivered by Scottish Post Office to south England. It was downhill all the way.

Were the rocks in Chimera's head too big?

If ignorance was a valuable commodity, exploration companies would be drilling Chimera's head.

Bronze age Egyptians were visiting "Tin Islands" to get tin. They worked hard to get it but on days off they engaged in their favorite hobby moving big rocks around. There were no good quality rocks to build pyramids but good enough for Stonehenge astronomical observatory.

The mystery of Stonehenge may finally have been solved by researchers who say it could be linked to ancient Egypt.

The great Khufu pyramid was built in 2600BC. The Altar Stone is believed to date around 2620 to 2480 BC.
Europe's earliest mining  is dated to 2500 BC. Cornish tin mining began in around 2100 BC when fakers sold tiny tin copies of Stonehenge.

The oldest production of tin-bronze is in Anatolia (modern day Turkey) about 3500 BC.
In early days tin oxide bids were found on surface as well as copper, that's how bronze was discovered by accident in campfire ashes.

The distance from Cornwall to Turkey is 2 900 km. A six ton stone can be moved that far, not impossible, and it could be red with the same minerals as in Scotland with a rock-solid guarantee.

Carried in the heads of boneheads. Chimera's ancestors were pack animals for superior beings?

Don't adjust the settings of your equipment.

The problem is in your head.

'The stone's area is south of Orkney where the Ness of Brodgar site has been under excavation, revealing a massive complex of monumental Neolithic buildings dating from around 3000BC'.

It also has a standing-stone circle.  The two sites were then linked as a system.

A Stone Age data centre?

'The Stone of Destiny is an ancient symbol of Scottish monarchy and kingdom, and an object of utmost importance to both Scotland and the UK.  Still used to crown kings and queens of the United Kingdom today – most recently King Charles III in May 2023 '.

It is also of red sandstone. The Lia Fáil, otherwise known as the Stone of Destiny, or the Coronation Stone is said to have screamed or roared when the rightful king put his foot on it.  That suggests some viable activity is embedded in it.
