This is really interesting, and I’d love it to be true (maybe that’s the problem!).
For what it’s worth though, here’s my objection. If the avenues represent the arms of the Goddess, and were used as ceremonial pathways, why would it be ritualistically significant to parade along the arms to the head? In prehistoric representations of the Goddess the arms and head are usually very small, reflecting their unimportance to the symbolism of the figure. The belly and hips are exaggerated. If Avebury is also an Earth Mother representation, wouldn’t these areas be the most prominent, with ritual processions centred around them, instead?
