A missing piece from one of Stonehenge's giant sarsen stones, removed 60 years ago during excavations, has been returned to the ancient monument.
Robert Phillips, an employee from the company that carried out the repairs, kept the 108 centimeter-long core after completing his work, for many years displaying it on a wall in his office.It traveled with Phillips when he emigrated to New York years later, but he expressed his wish that it be returned to the monument on the eve of his 90th birthday.
