Well, there you have it with that last one – looking at my math isn’t so bad after all after having seen some of my philosophy, eh? Silly me, when I got back into this I thought if it calendars were what it was all about, it should be simple. Nonetheless, the past week hasContinue reading “Reaching For The Sky”

Rock Flattens Paper…
It may be time for a break from Stonehenge, I’ve done a lot with it recently and it’s assisted us in having what look to be like the right formulas for Anomalistic Month and Eclipse Year, and it’s even helped us to understand a “C” set of calendar values and the correct placement of theContinue reading “Rock Flattens Paper…”
Still More Half-Baked Stonehengery
Still in pursuit of an understanding of how to group candidate figures for the Lunar Year value(s), I took up the question with four different figures for the half Venus Cycle, and four of the most familiar versions of the terrestrial year. I have asked Stonehenge, and it think it may have answered. The answerContinue reading “Still More Half-Baked Stonehengery”
Uncharted Skies?
Stonehenge seems to have pointed us in the direction of a third value for representing the half Venus Cycle (it’s nearly twice as accurate as the standard “B” value for the half Venus Cycle, adding about 10 days as opposed to about 17), and it looks like it may be mathematically compatible with its environment.Continue reading “Uncharted Skies?”
Rio Bec, Slight Return
Aside from Tikal, I’m not sure there any ancient American archaeological sites that have given me a sense of wonder and inspiration quite the way that Rio Bec, the namesake of the Rio Bec archaeological style, has. That was all any archaeologists had to say to me was to propose that the stately false towerContinue reading “Rio Bec, Slight Return”
Scrutinizing Stonehenge 2
I don’t imagine I yet have enough additional material on Stonehenge for another part in the series yet, but in case I have anything new to say on the subject in the meantime, let’s see what I can make out of another post. With the rapid influx of Stonehenge data lately, I’ve begun building aContinue reading “Scrutinizing Stonehenge 2”
“Not A Cubit”
Well, I don’t really know if it’s a cubit or not. Nobody actually put me in charge of ancient metric standards, and that’s not something I want to be in charge of anyway. Had I been recruited by some ancient agency in charge of metric standards, I presume my job would be try to keepContinue reading ““Not A Cubit””
More About Stonehenge, Pt 11
MORE AUBREY CENTER DISPLACEMENT EXPERIMENTS In Part 9 of this series, we looked the effect of the Aubrey Center displacement on the proportioning of the mean Trilithon “horseshoe” ellipse along its major axis (major diameter), and the we took a look at is effect on the proportioning of the outer bluestone circle. For the meanContinue reading “More About Stonehenge, Pt 11”
More About Stonehenge, Pt 10
Yeah, ten parts and we haven’t covered the half of it yet… What does that suggest about what Stonehenge is? What now? I bet we’re all very curious now what the Aubrey Center offset does to the message of the sarcen circle, I know I certainly am – but we can get back to thatContinue reading “More About Stonehenge, Pt 10”
More About Stonehenge, Pt 9
EXCERPTS FROM THE AUBREY EXPERIMENTS In case it had something to offer us, yesterday I experimented with trying to figure out what the point might be of the Aubrey Center being off-centered. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen anyone give an accounting for that and it seems like a very strange thing without someContinue reading “More About Stonehenge, Pt 9”
