Stonehenge "Hedge" Found, Shielded Secret Rituals?

This article about the people of Stonehenge planting hedges to keep their rituals and rites more private, really brought the site to life for me. Their act of planting and tending live plants helps me relate to them as people and not mysterious beings of another world. Planting hedges is something we Pagans do today to keep our own rituals private and away from prying eyes and nosy neighbors.
