Stone Circle in Russia
Funerary monument to the cult-Okunev culture. Around the square fence with inlaid stone circle built diagonal diameter of 84 m vkopanyh menhirs. In the middle of the fence, excavated v1970-ies is burial in a box of stone slabs. To the east of the square fence located "gates" of 6 stones dug vertically. Axis 'goal' coincides with the longitudinal axis of the central burial in a stone box. This direction is almost the same as the direction of the rising sun on the summer solstice.
