Roman Amphitheatre of Uthina The Roman Amphitheatre of Uthina is located in Uthina , near Tunis, Tunisia . Building for Uthina began in 40 BC and continued through to 135 AD. The amphitheatre may have been a later addition to what was already a large town. Also located there were a fortress, cisterns, an aqueduct, a triumphal arch, a theatre, and a basilica with a circular crypt . Coordinates 36.608598,10.169214 Description The amphitheatre, partly buried, measures 113 by 90 meters. The arena measures 58 by 35 metres, giving surface areas of 7988 and 1539 square metres respectively. There are four entrances, two main entrances at each end, with the seating area supported by three tiers of columns and arches. (Although these are no longer there, measurements and amphitheater descriptions rely on a complete building.) Measurements for the amphitheatre on site are 12 0 by 89 metres, with the arena measuring 67 by 36 metres. The surface areas measure 10680 an d 24...
Parthenon Greece
Coordinates
Description
The Parthenon is aligned east/west at 13° and north/south at 10°. This would be 3.77° less than when it was constructed.
Degrees in hour: 15°
Modern Copies
The only modern copy of the Parthenon that currently exists is in Centennial Park, Nashville. It was built for the Tennessee Centennial and International Exposition in 1897. This is the only building preserved from the historic event, and it currently serves as Nashville's art museum. It includes the 42-foot-tall statue of Athena Parthenos designed by Alan LeQuire in 1990.
Other connections include the modern mile. This is connected by a rotation, angle difference, and number of pillars. (360×44)÷3=5280 feet in a mile.
Hours in day
Angle along base to CoG 24°
With the ancient Greek year of 354 days, it was possible to use both 12 months of 29.5 days and 13 months of 27.3 days. Neither is exact, and they included this in their calculations.
Height
Megalithic Cubit
The measurements connected to the Parthenon suggest the use of a megalithic cubit (0.45405, 2.202/m) rather than a Greek cubit. With a megalithic cubit, there is a ratio: width in meters connects with the megalithic cubit to give length, and the length gives 164.453. This, when added to the width, gives 239 (seconds/°), which, when divided, gives 527. This, divided by the pillar height, produces 40 (height in megalithic cubits).

The Parthenon is a former temple on the Athenian Acropolis, Greece, dedicated to the goddess Athena, whom the people of Athens considered their patron.
Construction began in 447 BC when the Athenian Empire was at the peak of its power. It's construction is possibly connected with the island of Delos, where congresses were held before being moved to Athens in 454 BC.

Description
The Parthenon is aligned east/west at 13° and north/south at 10°. This would be 3.77° less than when it was constructed.
Using measurements of 74.67m in length, 33.9m in width, and 18.99m in height for the Parthenon, the following are produced.
Calculations
Base area: 74.67 × 33.9 = 2532 m²
Base area: 74.67 × 33.9 = 2532 m²
CoG point: 9.495 m at 13.35° (9.73 - 9.495 = 0.235 m or 23.5 cm)
Volume: 2532 × 18.99 = 48082 m³ (48082 ÷ 3600 = 13.35, which is the angle of CoG)
Side areas:
Front: 33.9 × 18.99 = 643 m²
Side: 74.67 × 18.99 = 1417 m²
Degrees: 7 × 360 = 2520°

(All sides) ÷ (base + ½ pillars) × pillar height
(1417 × 643 × 2532) ÷ ((2532 + 24) × 10.4433) = 86400

Also, angle difference × pillars on sides = 24.
Or 1 side + 1 length.
Or Total pillars ÷ 2 (16×2)+(8×2)÷2=24.
Some of these numbers have been rounded up; the amount away from a precise number can be a small percentage, and others are almost exact.
It is possible that these define an acceptable use of degrees and minutes for angles, which might be connected to a distance and hour segments, much like the modern right ascension and distance away. Any further connections could also be associated with this building. This would make it a focal point of discussion after business matters had been finished. The CoG would be near the statue of Athena in the Cella, and different statues, pillars, or building measurements could correlate to stellar objects. The errors could correlate to separation distances.
Parthenon (cont..)
The Parthenon in Athens is also connected to the Moon and, in turn, to the Greek calendar. The height of the Parthenon is derived from the difference between a sidereal and synodic month, which equals one sidereal month.

The Parthenon in Athens is also connected to the Moon and, in turn, to the Greek calendar. The height of the Parthenon is derived from the difference between a sidereal and synodic month, which equals one sidereal month.
There are 13.37 sidereal months in a year. This number then coincides with the 24° angle from a corner pillar along the base to the center of gravity (CoG). 365 ÷ 27.321661 = 13.3594 months/year.
There are 12.37 synodic months in a year. 365 ÷ 29.530587981 = 12.36 months/year
Degree, minutes, seconds.
The use of degrees and arcseconds has been shown to derive from degrees, suggesting a derivation from the Babylonian base-60 measurement system. From this, either hours connect as modern-day right ascension measurements, where one hour equals 15°, or minutes are used for degrees, minutes, and seconds. The angle to the CoG is equivalent to the sidereal month length divided by the number of days in a year (365), which equals 13.36° (28- and 30-day months are used with variations). The use of a 354-day year followed by a 377-day year would average at 365.5 days and, over four years, would allow for an extra day. The Roman Republican calendar at this time had a similar 355/378-day year, which totaled five days longer per leap year and differed from Romulus's calendar, which had months of random length and 304 days.

Hours in day
Angle along base to CoG 24°
Hours in a week:
Hours in a day × ½(actual pillars ÷ π)
24 × ½(44 ÷ π) = 168
Hours in a month:
Hours in a week + pillar height × tilt = 28-day month
(168 + 10.4433) × 3.77 = 672
Or
Hours in a week × CoG ÷ (ft × 10) measure = 30.42-day month
168 × (13.35 ÷ 3.09) = 728
Hours in a year:
(Hours in a month × 52) ÷ °/minutes = 365-day year
(672 × 52) ÷ 3.989 = 8760
Hours in a month × CoG + pi = 354-day year
672 × (9.495 + π) = 8492
Hours in a month: 728 × (9.495 + π) - 150 = 9048
With the ancient Greek year of 354 days, it was possible to use both 12 months of 29.5 days and 13 months of 27.3 days. Neither is exact, and they included this in their calculations.
The use of π and the center of gravity suggests a full rotation about a month and point. The construction of the Parthenon could suggest they wanted to use a 52-week year within a 365-day year, providing an equal year for each and allowing for measurements that wouldn't alter. This would be the reason for degrees, minutes, and seconds with the right ascension.
Height
Height is derived from the following: 0.828 = 2 × (1 - √2)
18.162 = height from base
0.172 = 1 - 0.828
1 - 18.99 = -17.99
-17.99 - 18.162 = -36.152
18.162 ÷ 13.35 = 1.36
0.172 × 57.296 = 9.854912
9.854912 - 9.495 = 0.359912
Megalithic Cubit
The measurements connected to the Parthenon suggest the use of a megalithic cubit (0.45405, 2.202/m) rather than a Greek cubit. With a megalithic cubit, there is a ratio: width in meters connects with the megalithic cubit to give length, and the length gives 164.453. This, when added to the width, gives 239 (seconds/°), which, when divided, gives 527. This, divided by the pillar height, produces 40 (height in megalithic cubits).
33.903 ÷ 0.45405 = 74.67
74.67 ÷ 0.45405 = 164.453
18.162 ÷ 0.45405 = 40
The ancient Greek cubit, though, is 0.4623m. 0.4623 - 0.45405 = 0.00825m or 0.8cms.
The ancient Greek cubit, though, is 0.4623m. 0.4623 - 0.45405 = 0.00825m or 0.8cms.
Using 0.4623 (numbers in cubits):
18.162 ÷ 0.4623 = 39.286 (0.72 difference)
74.67 ÷ 0.4623 = 161.52 (2.93 difference)
33.9 ÷ 0.4623 = 73.33 (1.34 difference)
Parthenon (cont...)
With the use of the number '1', it is possible to form a Quadratic Polynomial. A number similar to an angle of rotation, 3.786 rather than 3.77, then equates to 28 cm at 1 km. It also produces a date of 458 BC or a year length.

It is possible there is a connection with the golden ratio and +/-, but also a direct conversion, connecting hours in a day to 1.36.
From the quadratic, the roots are 0.0527 and 1.0527. The vertex is 0.5, -5.5, with a y-intercept at -1. These could then be considered as being applied to the Parthenon with measurements for,
Pediment 4.995m
√(285)÷(10.4433÷3.08)=4.98
Pillar 10.4433m
√(285)÷1.618=10.43
Frieze and architrave 1.362m
√(285)÷(1-13.36)=1.365
Also, these measurements can be derived from the megalithic cubic with a connecting equation. There is also a sign that the radian is included, but a megalithic cubic is the exact measurement.
