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”

Short Reports 6
The Great Turtle In high school, my best friend used to occasionally refer to the “Great Turtle” with a gleam in his eye. I never found out where he got this concept, but I always took it be something like a refinement of the idea of the “Flying Spaghetti Monster” – if you’re going toContinue reading “Short Reports 6”
What Is Stonehenge?
I continue to wrestle with some of the details involved in exploring my questions about ancient American iconography and planetary/stellar symbolism, such as a considerable amount of rather time-consuming manual data entry and searching for scattered images and drawings of monumental artifacts like stelae and altars. Ideally, this may help provide the opportunity to betterContinue reading “What Is Stonehenge?”
The Bat Palace, Room 10
In the previous post, we looked at the layout and basic data for the rooms of the Bat Palace at Tikal, and explored the question of this Mayan structure’s mysteriously recurring width measurement of 1.73 m. In my experience, such redundancy in Mayan designs is rare, suggesting the measure recurs because the architect has anContinue reading “The Bat Palace, Room 10”
Short Reports 2
For the second round of Short Reports, we seem to have some diverse topics that, in a timely fashion, may have some interconnection. The Mysterious Eclipse Year Even for as much as we are learning about the Eclipse Year and how it may be represented and recorded through measure and proportion, it continues to holdContinue reading “Short Reports 2”
Resonance
Frequently in my writing, I use the term “resonance”, referring to “mathematical resonance” or “resonant” numbers, but I’m not still not sure if I’ve ever given any adequate explanation for the term. In acoustics, noun the quality in a sound of being deep, full, and reverberating.”the resonance of his voice”. (physics) the reinforcement or prolongationContinue reading “Resonance”

Is “Stecchini’s Cubit” The Draconic Megalithic Yard? Even though it hasn’t yet helped to give a historical identity to the “Outer Sarsen Circle Unit”, I may get to say that looking at various units (where applicable) as things that can be constructed from whole numbers combined with exponential expressions of Pi has already proved helpfulContinue reading “Short Reports 1”
Chephren’s Pyramid from Top to Bottom
At present we are having a bit of discussion at GHMB again about Chephren’s pyramid. We seem to have at least a small amount of consensus on its measurements, and the ability of those measurements to communicate the Lunar Year at a 1:1 ratio of Imperial Feet to days. It reminds me that I amContinue reading “Chephren’s Pyramid from Top to Bottom”
A Certain “Stonehengy” Number
Peter Harris recently posted his HSMF thread at the Megalithic Portal concerning the Waun Mawn site in Wales, where not only has evidence been reported of a stone circle, but it has been speculated that bluestones at Stonehenge may have originally stood in Waun Mawn circle before being brought to Stonehenge. Being ever curious andContinue reading “A Certain “Stonehengy” Number”
On the Great Pyramid’s Missing Apex
I know that I make frequent reference to the Great Pyramid’s “Missing Apex Section” – in fact, these passages from the very recent post “The Stars Built In” seem to make it particularly clear what my extended Munck model of the Great Pyramid implies in regard to the missing section: I hope that by now,Continue reading “On the Great Pyramid’s Missing Apex”
