How "Stottenhedge" was discovered.
It had been Rollie Stottenhedge's dream to discover a place where no bird had flown before!
In 1955, Rollie Stottenhedge achieved his dream!
Rollie was on vacation in Jamaica on a flying expedition, with a group of other tourist birds, when he decided to go exploring on his own.
That was the decision that changed Rollie's life!
Rollie was flying higher than he ever had before when he thought he caught a glimpse of some faces. Even though he thought he was probably hallucinating, he circled back and flew to the spot where he thought he had actually seen faces.
Rollie's little heart began to pound...he WAS seeing faces! At that point, Rollie worried that perhaps one of the locals had slipped some type of illegal drug into the worm slushy he had consumed at the last rest stop.
Rollie decided what he was seeing was REAL so he flew down and landed on the carvings and marveled at the incredible view.
When Rollie Stottenhedge flew back to his bird hotel and told the staff what he had discovered they couldn't believe it!

In 1956, the Prime Minister of Jamaica officially named the newly discovered monument STOTTENHEDGE, in honor of Rollie. It has been a tourist attraction in Jamaica ever since!
