Stonehenge board and Byzantine chessboard separated at birth?

Check out what a Byzantine chessboard looks like:

The one for Stonehenge is like a big brother to that with nearly 50% more spaces. I am kicking around an idea to do a 3 or 4 player Byzantine chess game using the Stonehenge board. If you treat the day-night spaces on the Stonehenge board for a number as ones space, then the number space has four sections to it, which matches a Byzantine chessboard. I have done one game (and have another on a way) that uses this aspect to the Stonehenge board to do abstract strategy games.

Anyhow, just curious if while Stonehenge was being designed, if this crossed the Stonehenge design crew's mind.

Not that I'm aware of. Interesting, though.

I found it interesting when I ran across a Byzantine Chessboard again recently.
