In the preceding post, I wrote “The value of 22 t units seen on the diagram of El Caracol translates to 1.870078740 x 22 = 41.14173228, which is perhaps rather evocative of 1/10 of the 411.78443029 day Full Moon Cycle, although it could be something else. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year It really hasn’t been sorted out whether, forContinue reading “The Metonic Cycle”

Gaining On Ancient Geodesy?
I’ve been working for some time now on the problem of ancient geodesy – essentially, if ancient people found how large the world was earlier than they are usually given credit for, what did they think was the right way to reckon this and express it? It came to light that there are several waysContinue reading “Gaining On Ancient Geodesy?”
More About Stonehenge, Pt 8
Let me try to retrace my steps to get to what was supposed to have been the point of the previous post in this series, and go back to where I was just before the train seemingly took leave of its track. I was observing that potential Eclipse Year candidate 346.4769015 / 225 = 1Continue reading “More About Stonehenge, Pt 8”
More About Stonehenge, Pt 6
Something I should mention is that in interpreting Prof. Thom’s “17 Megalithic Yard” diameter for the inner Trilithon ellipse and the inner bluestone circle as 2 / 1.177245771 = 16.98880598 Megalithic Yards is that 16.98880598 x 2 Pi = 106.7438159, one of the numbers that Stonehenge seems quite fond of talking about, achieved this timeContinue reading “More About Stonehenge, Pt 6”
More About Stonehenge, Pt 5
I’m looking at Thom’s Stonehenge data again and I think the time may truly have come for the subject of symmetry breaking, although I haven’t mastered it and I’m not sure of the best way to present it. However, as hopefully demonstrated once again, there is also the matter of min, max and mean forContinue reading “More About Stonehenge, Pt 5”
An Experiment with a Putative Indus Foot
Jim Wakefield managed to bring the Indus foot to my attention – it’s about 13.2 inches or 13.2 / 12 = 1.1 feet. I’d rather shy away from the subject because it could have been tough determining just how many feet that was supposed to be (1.111111111 for starters?), but I finally noticed that 13.2Continue reading “An Experiment with a Putative Indus Foot”
