Oh, I meant it more in the sense how archeologists/historians often say something was used for some religious or ritual purposes when they can't come up with a better explanation. See for example Stonehenge or roman dodecahedrons. There was also the idea for an atomic priesthood which would be charged with keeping the knowledge about nuclear waste sites.
