Yes, in design terms these objects are coming from what-is-known as Folk Memory. It's like the flicker of an echo of the conscience at destroying the originals. They're everywhere. (Almost everywhere).

There's a few fake - often slate - stone circles in North Wales. Slaughter the polar bears but start to keep gerbils as a pet. There'll be a complex anthropological term for it - but I don't know what it is. 'The Cargo Cult' ?
