Also the modern day Druids were consulted before the excavation.
Living proof that professional archaeologists and wackos can work together

The Smithsonian Magazine has a feature on this in the latest edition.
Lots of "touchy feely" supposition ans speculation.
From your second link.

For the same reasons.
A multi-year make work project.
