Yes, if the alignment is tradition the people may have lost the reason for it but still do it, we assume people using alignments knew why, they may not have, or it could have been a very broad "at the moon".


RSC 's are broad , in that they are not pinpointing "alignments " but a part of the sky where the full moon will be low at a particular time of year .


Yes that's what i meant by - a very broad "at the moon", I agree alignment tends to mean something less broad, as you know the land tends to give the view or the low horizon, so therefore alignments are as much about the lay of the land of a region as anything else.
