Kings Chamber - Before and After

Was looking at (older) online photos of this chamber. Compared to the ones I took. Using images from image search:

Before:


After:

Notice the difference? Someone stood up a standing stone. Damn, I was trying to make sense of it not being in front of the chamber. Now I realize it is the result of vandalism. What the F?

Here is a question: knowing it is fake, should someone cast it back down? Any guesses as to who thinks they are astronomers? Or, are there even older photos that show a standing stone, which this restores?

Update: I just heard that the stone was there long ago, got knocked over and, in it's current state, it has been restored.

    I keep seeing photos of candles on interior walls and stone spirals and more damn candles on the floors, and all sorts "stuff" obviously brought into "stone chambers" by obviously "Anyone but Indians," supposedly celebrating a variety of "spiritualities." And a bazillion new balanced and stacked "cairns" outside of the chambers, along the paths leading up to them and all kinds of vandalism on many a social media group page on the dreaded facey-book world wide computer net...

    I saw one rock-on-rock that looked modern. Wanted to kick it over but I was not sure.

    Looks like they also removed a tree (?) to plant the standing stone.

    Tommy: photos at slightly different angles. The tree is still there.
