One of the arguments is that the movement of the sun is harder to measure closer to the solstice and Stonehenge could not have been accurate enough, but thr Aztecs were able to correct this with a second sight stone, if I remember correctly. Like sighting a rifle, they would have 2 reference points to line up that would produce an accurate enough measurement to keep the seasons on track with their calendar.
