	abstract = {The Majorville Medicine Wheel is actually a Sun Cairn surrounded by a Rayed Ring. It is the central construction of an enormous Sun Temple that extends over about 100 square kilometres. There are auxilliary cairns on the site that make up, among other things, an accurate calendar. On occasion I have been asked why people who followed the bison would have wanted an accurate calendar. The answer is that the Sky is a map that is fascinating, and some people are drawn to read it. I have found no evidence that people who lived here five or ten thousand years ago were less intelligent than us. Examine an Eden or Scottsbluff point. It is possible that while Europeans and Asians were advancing in technology, Americans were advancing in philosophy. When mortal conflict arises between technologists and philosophers, the technologists win. We will display some of the Solstitial Sun Rise and Set lines at the Sun Temple near Majorville that have put the subject of Archaeoastronomy on a sounder, empirical foundation. Techniques developed at the site near Majorville have been applied at Stonehenge, and greatly improved the archaeoastronomy of that Sun Temple. We continue to urge Archaeological Survey of Alberta officials to designate more of the Majorville site.},
