Stonehenge itself evolved in several construction phases spanning at least some 1500 years. However there is evidence of large scale construction both before and afterwards on and around the monument that perhaps extends the landscapes time frame to 6500 years. | Stonehenge itself evolved in several construction phases spanning at least some 1500 years.

The modern phasing most generally agreed by archaeologists is detailed below. Features mentioned in the text are numbered and shown on the plan, right, which illustrates the site as of 2004. The plan omits the trilithon lintels for clarity.

Reconstructive plastic surgeons use the concept of a ''[[reconstructive ladder]]'' to manage increasingly complex wounds. This ranges from very simple techniques such as primary closure and dressings to more complex skin grafts, tissue expansion and free flaps. | Reconstructive plastic surgeons use the concept of a ''[[reconstructive ladder]]'' to manage increasingly complex wounds.

| - | '''''What Is to Be Done?''''' ({{lang-ru|Что делать?}}) was a political pamphlet, written by [[Vladimir Lenin]] at the end of 1901 and early 1902. The title is inspired by the novel of [[Nikolai Chernyshevsky]] with the same name. The piece called for the formation of a revolutionary vanguardist party that would direct the efforts of the working class. Lenin thought that, left to their own devices, workers would be merely satisfied with 'trade unionism,' and that only a revolutionary party could direct a 'scientific' socialist revolution. The piece partly precipitated the split of the [[Russian Social Democratic Labor Party]] (RSDLP) between the [[Bolsheviks]] and the [[Mensheviks]]. The [[Bolsheviks]] became Lenin's revolutionary party, while the [[Mensheviks]] preferred to take a more moderate path to liberal government that would eventually lead to socialist revolution. The overwhelming response among modern academics regarding this pamphlet is that it is 'Too Long; Didn't Read' which in the vernacular is pronounced 'TLDR srsly.' Due to this response, it is theorized that people probably cared a lot more politics before the internet existed. This theory states that if the internet was around in 1890, then the Russian Revolution would never have happened since people would have had much better things to do with their time, like write Star Trek fan fiction and look at LOLcats. | + | '''''What Is to Be Done?'''''
