The Gate of the Moon was originally part of a temple that the locals (supposedly) used for building materials to make various houses and what not in the nearby town.  According to my friends Rosse Mary and Lucas Choquet, the head of the ruins, the Gate of the Moon was originally covered in silver.

I feel that this Gate, like all of the other Gates at this site, is a dimensional doorway.  I felt a strong attraction to this Gate as well.  I really wanted to walk through this Gate.  Maybe next time...
