The Indians used sagebrush to form huts or Wikiups.I have come across thousands of the rock rings that still exist today.Here are couple pics of one or two

I dont know if this was a sacred site or what,but it was unlike any I have ever seen,had rock etchings,and gave off a feel like I have never felt any where since

I know what you mean by the feeling you got from that place. We were in the Smoky Mountains in North Carolina and hiked up a mountain that had a small pioneer family grave yard on top. Standing there I got a feeling like Ive never felt before or since. Im not very religious but I got one heck of a spiritual feeling that day.
