Definitely expanded enough, I'd long ago wanted to turn this redirect into a full page, and but he beat me to it. Lots of footnotes. Article is NPoV. I'd love it if the hook included a mention of it being American Indian, for all the reader is likely to guess it's an older site near Stonehenge. (he has since tweaked the hook to address my comment, thanks!) — Kaz (talk) 21:24, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
