Hundreds of ancient stone structures found on edge of volcanoes in Saudi Arabia

The structures themselves date back thousands of years. Does this mean that Scientology has been vindicated?

Experts are still unsure as to the purpose of the structures, but some of them were found to be draped over lava domes – a mound shaped area where lava has dried near volcanoes.
The stone walls, which have been called “gates” as they resemble field gates when viewed aerially, were found in a region in west-central Saudi Arabia called Harrat Khaybar.
David Kennedy, a professor at the University of Western Australia, who helped to discover the gates through satellite imagery, said they "are stone-built, the walls roughly made and low.”
He adds that they "appear to be the oldest man-made structures in the landscape,” and that "no obvious explanation of their purpose can be discerned”.

More evidence that suggests that civilization is probably older than we've assumed.

I have no clue how this follows from your first sentence.

"The Nameless City" is a short story by H.P. Lovecraft features the ruins of a city in the Arabian desert older than any human civilization.

No, dummy. The aliens were dropped in the Hawaiian volcanoes thousands of years before they formed. Geez, think before you post.

What are the odds our Wahhabi allies and friends in Saudi Arabia blow them up for being blasphemous to Islam?

No pics of the stone gates?

Looks like Jesus had some fun with rocks as well while planting dinosaur bones all over the planet.

Simplest answer may be best guess. The ancient civilization might have been trying to control lava, or perhaps they built a structure to perform rites near the volcano.
