There was much more to see in UB, and in the countryside. However, time
didn't allow anything more. The pictures were taken on a walk-around the
morning I departed, so there was no opportunity to go back.
As far as the "whatever constructions" are concerned, the ritual seems
to be to pick up several small stones and deposit them on the pile while
walking round. This I did, to ensure we had a safe return to UB. Never
discovered if "prayers" were involved, or the casting ritual was sufficient.
