Recent archaeological investigations have shown that Stonehenge was built on the same site as a much earlier structure of earth and timber, dating to 5,000 years ago.
The Temples at Abu Simbel date to early in the reign of Ramesses II, about 1280 BC or about 3,291 years ago.
The site and use of Stonehenge is therefore much older, but its stone circles were not completed until about 3,800 years ago.
