The stones are also a kind of calender, so if you are good at ancient mathemathics you should be able to calculate the date by the angle of the sun and which stones are hit by the light and shadows. Good luck. :)

Good point ... we did figure out the orientation of the photographer and sun position to verify that the time of day was consistent with the photo info. |

You can determine the apparent position of many major astronomical objects from any location on Earth using NASA's Ephemeris Generator. Modify the settings in this link to suit your location, time span, data desired, and object of interest. |
