I'm stuck between stonehenge and the pyramids, but I'm leaning towards stonehenge . . ..

But I have a hunch it's something much, much simpler than that.

I guess tombstones would be too simple of an answer? :)

Do tombstones have secrets that plague the heartsof men? Pyramids seems like the answer because we are still baffled how people could have built them without the aid of machines.

This is probably the best guess.

I don't know much about stonehenge, but I don't think it's this because I don't think it was built for "the remembered"
I doubt its a tombstone, because tombstones (in general) really have no secrets, nor do the fact that tombstones exist hold many secrets.

The pyramids were obviously built by ancient peoples. They are more or less gravesites for notable people of ancient egypt, people that would be remembered. To this day, no one has any flawless idea of how they built such big pyramids with such large stones, without the use of modern machinery. This is the "secrets" the riddle refers to.

Pyramids does seem like the most obvious answer, but for a riddle that seems to easy an answer... there must be a trick or catch to it :D
