    Just for the record, I think it was even older as the oldest archaeological
    site which appears to have spiritual implications is Bilzingsleben Germany
    dated 425,000 years and peopled with H. erectus.

    shed. As he opens the door sunlight illuminates a cluster of
    smooth stones and pieces of bone that he believes were arranged
    by humans to pave a 27-foot-wide circle.
            "'They intentionally paved this area for cultural
    activities,' says Mania. 'We found here a large anvil of
    quartzite set between the horns of a huge bison, near it were
    fractured human skulls.'" ~ Rick Gore, "The First Europeans,"
