Hi Dit. On that second picture, the direction the head is looking could give you a clue as to who put it there. St. John the Baptist was one of the holy men who lost his head. His holy day is June 24th which is also a couple days off from the summer solstice. The Templars were big fans of St. John so if the head is facing to the NE, solstice sunrise, it might indicate Templar or even freemason influence.
Thanks to Steve's links to calculating the Sun and Moon trajectories, I have found a very interesting correlation. From Dog's notes, the Moon rose out of the mouth of the Snake on or about the Spring Equinox (March 20). So, by my calculations, from that location (with a magnetic declination of +8 degrees) it rose at 124 degrees from magnetic north at 10:02pm, which just happens to match Dog's notes.
If your speculations are correct, on the Summer Solstice (June 21) the Sun will rise at 69 degrees at 6:00am. Guess where I will be at 6am on June 21st?
