It can not be proven that these aspects were intentional; but then again by what authority can it be stated that they were not intentional? As with all theories we need a body of accumulating evidence to support the notion that auditory elements played a contributing role to human experiences at prehistoric sites. To my mind the best way of getting that is to get out there and put them to the test.

The same applies to views and alignments. We shall argue forever on here about intentionality as no-one can prove individual cases. But in all instances the way forward is mass observation to see if there's a tendency that points to intentionality. Sandy Gerrard's work on stone rows is a shining example.
