Status Report, and a Name for the Whole Number/Pi^7 Unit

Greetings, all Many apologies for another unexpected period of inactivity the past several months. At present, I have limited use of both hands dues to yet unknown causes and most often still having to type with two fingers the past eight weeks. (I also had a ten-day hospital stay in January with even more pressingContinue reading “Status Report, and a Name for the Whole Number/Pi^7 Unit”

A New Dimension To Ancient Measures by Dr. Thomas Gough and Peter Harris

Greetings to all I’ve mentioned this very important new book before, but there are some new developments including that the book is now available from Amazon.com. What I wrote about Peter’s the new book earlier today, because I sincerely mean it: I would gladly and confidently say that Peter Harris’ new book with Thomas GoughContinue reading “A New Dimension To Ancient Measures by Dr. Thomas Gough and Peter Harris”

Is This The Original Plan For The Giza Pyramids?

Who knows? It’s hard to tell since apparently someone went and lost the blueprints… It’s been giving me fits most of the day that some of what I proposed in the previous post yesterday doesn’t add up, and I’ve been checking on all sorts of things trying to get to the bottom of what happened.Continue reading “Is This The Original Plan For The Giza Pyramids?”

A Strange (and Wondrous) Day at Giza

Greetings, all I find my attention drawn toward ancient Egyptian architecture again, for a number of reasons that might sound tangential if I went into full detail, but today started out with the realization that the Harris-Stockdale Unifying Value could perhaps be an oversized variant of the Full Moon Cycle. The original note that expressesContinue reading “A Strange (and Wondrous) Day at Giza”

Planetary and Lunar Data

I’ve been working on a new data table. On the one hand, it’s meant to save on having solar system astronomy formulas scattered everywhere over posts to five forums and over pages and pages of written notes; on the other hand, there may be no replacing taking the time to work out those notes. OneContinue reading “Planetary and Lunar Data”

It’s Only A Prototype…

Greetings, all – and a Safe and Happy Thanksgiving, even to those who don’t celebrate the holiday. Today I am thankful for, among other things, having beaten my Planetary and Lunar Tables into the form of the first prototype. It’s still a work in progress, but I have been slaving away on it for daysContinue reading “It’s Only A Prototype…”

Short Reports 8

Greetings! A few more random items from my desktop… The “Garsalian” State of the Tropical Month I’ve been considering candidate values for representation of the Tropical Month the last several weeks. Cerrig at the Megalithic Portal has posted several threads with excellent details of several Megalithic sites which have me quite intrigued. Cerrig advocates forContinue reading “Short Reports 8”

Short Reports 7

Greetings all! Having a number of bits and pieces on my mind, another Short Reports article might be a good way to address them. We Salute Mercurial Pathways Mercurial Pathways is a remarkable blog that I haven’t been able to view in about as long as I’ve had troubles posting to my own blog here.Continue reading “Short Reports 7”

Testing, Testing, One Two Three…

Greetings, all… I hope all have been keeping safe and well. A funny thing happened about six months ago apparently having to do with my becoming a victim of obsolescence and losing the ability to post this blog due to sudden lack of a supported browser. Ironic in a way; here I have a blogContinue reading “Testing, Testing, One Two Three…”

Ancient Astronomical Symbolism: Movies Versus Snapshots

Hopefully a little more of a brief note for once, but back in Short Reports 8 I announced a paper uploaded to Academia.edu, A Forest of Stars, wherein I attempt to ask some challenging questions about the state of affairs with Mesoamerican archaeology and the possibility that our current rather incomplete understanding of things hasn’tContinue reading “Ancient Astronomical Symbolism: Movies Versus Snapshots”
