Do you suppose people were moaning about the same things thousands of years ago? "There are too many bloody daytrippers... People not respecting the stones... Roast venison stall stinking the place out..." It's such a big area, could it really have been kept free of people who weren't priestly types and taking the rituals seriously?
Just being flippant. Can't possibly know what went on in people's heads at the time. Which is probably why (whether I like it or not) anyone's take on / use of the site today is fair enough (bar vandalism) - without being all postmodernist about it and still being able to laugh at people wearing sheets.
