I'd agree, but there's a difference between being interested in something and having it hardwired into your head.

FW was right, humans do have bits hardwired for face recognition. I'll spare everyone the turgid detail, suffice to say it's well documented in many Sciency journals. It probably goes waaay back in evolutionary terms. Well before megalithic stuff, but that's not to say itcouldn't have had an input into the choice of stones/sites.
