Archaeological excavation at the site has determined a construction period as early as 3400 BC and paleoclimatology studies have shown that ring's use as an astronomical observation device may have ended sometime around 1500 BC.
Recent astronomical surveys conducted at the ring have suggested various alignments of the stones including an orientation with the Pleiades in 1330 BC, Capella in 1720 BC, and Altair in 1800 BC.
While there is no scientific agreement concerning these orientations, it is generally believed that Callanish functioned as an astronomical calendar associated with the moon and that it accurately marked the 18.61 year cycle of maximum lunar declination.
