Re: Henges designed to exclude?

That is my problem with the term ritual - to me the greatest ritual activities in Britain is football - like all sports ritual pervades to a deeply personal level throughout - players wearing lucky socks, fans driving a certain way to the ground etc. On a wider level, these personal rituals come together during a match to create a mass participation ritual activity that is more inspirational than religion.

Sport, would be my next choice as to reasons for building a henge, then as you say dancy stuff.
