The '''Ring of Brodgar''' (or '''Brogar''') is a [[neolithicNeolithic]] [[henge]] and [[stone circle]] in [[Mainland, Orkney|Orkney]], [[Scotland]]. The ring of stones stands on a small [[isthmus]] between the [[Loch]]s of [[Loch of Stenness|Stenness]] and [[Loch of Harray|Harray]]. The centre of the circle has never been excavated by [[Archaeology|archaeologists]] and scientifically dated, but it is thought that the [[stone circle]] was constructed around [[2500 BC]], and therefore broadly contemporary with [[Stonehenge]] and many other ancient sites in the [[British Isles]] and [[Europe]].
 
The circle is 104 metres in diameter, and one of the largest to be found in the [[United Kingdom]]. The henge was comprised of 60 stones, of which only 27 remained standing at the end of the [[20th century]]. The stones are set within a circular ditch up to 3 metres deep and 9 metres wide that was carved out of the solid bedrock by the ancient residents.
