As far as accuracy, you can do amazing things with strings, like make a plum.
Eerily enough the Great Pyramids of Giza are supposed to match the belt of Orion. Both the the way they layed out, as they appear from an aerial veiw and the hieght of each of the three pyramids correspond to the magnitude of each of the stars. I don't know if the GPG aligned with the solstice (they might) I know both the Myan pyramids of South America and Hengestone in England do align with the solstices. The is also the Great White Pyramid in China, but that hardly, if ever gets mentioned.
