Not quite sure what you mean. But I'd suggest that ancient sites are best appreciated by trying to get to the bottom of what they meant originally. That's what this website focuses on mostly.

We're free to use them purely in a convenient modern way - viewpoints, geocache locations or picnic tables but then 99% of their value is lost.



I agree and that's why I'm suggesting the possibility that the winter & solstice alignments at SH like those at passage graves were not necessarily built for "observing" .


Actually this is something I was going to ask. It seems to be cast in stone that this was the understanding but there must be presumably alternate theories out there.
