Haha!

Thanks for the link. I'm not as familiar with these enclosures as I should be.
Was anything found at the Goseck circle in terms of a viewing point/position to support the observatory idea?

Don't think so, just from the centre I seem to remember. I am reasonably sceptical. As with the Nebra disc, they sexed up this discovery at the time because it was such a huge find, too; but, orientations being so ambiguous and common in ancient sites, I am all for the poetic effect! And RC dates (also debatable) are on the whole very interesting because they agree with the spread of farming up the Danube.
