I too would balk at the word 'sacred' because apart from the strong probability of rites/rituals at tombs/burial mounds etc we can't realistically say what the circles (certainly the smaller ones with no obvious solar body alignments) were actually used for.

Not only that, but I've noticed that when people attach the word "sacred" to something, it generally indicates a sense of ownership, or the beginnings of them telling you what you can and can't do around a "sacred" thing.
