William Stukeley
William Stukeley was an English antiquarian and clergyman noted for his studies of ancient British monuments and his early work on the history of the Druids. He was a prominent figure in the 18th century, known for his writings on the Stonehenge and Avebury stone circles, which contributed to the public's interest in prehistoric archaeology. Stukeley's observations of a solar eclipse on April 1st, 1764, the same day as the birth of the racehorse Eclipse, were noted for their connection to local narratives and the natural phenomena of the time.
