It's not really Stonehenge, but Wyoming's Medicine Wheel is surrounded by a fair share of mystery. No one really knows when or why this 74-foot diameter stone circle with 28 interior “spokes” radiating outward was built. There's no question on the “where” though. On a bluff reached from State Highway 14A, 22 miles west of Burgess Junction, the Medicine Wheel overlooks nearly the entire Big Horn Basin.

Current theories have a Native American tribe building the wheel for religious or astrological purposes sometime between 1200 and 1700 A.D. Modern Indians use the Medicine Wheel for religious ceremonies. You'll notice all sorts of religious olio scattered inside and out of the wheel. The Medicine Wheel was designated a National Historic Site in 1970.
