"I do not believe the ancients had a religion, just a *feeling* for the sacredness of space and time, a feeling that found expression in monuments, ritual acts and mythologies."

Are you talking about the stoneage peoples? As far as I can see, our spiritual nature has made us ripe for manipulation by organised religion from the minute we were able to congregate regularly in reasonably large numbers. This combined with our natural desire to belong mean that a dictated religion was probably a very early development.

If henges or stone circles where built for spirtual reasons, then I would say their builders definately had a fixed religion or common belief.
