Tomb of Ramesses II

Tomb of Ramesses II Ramesses II, also known as Ramesses the Great, was buried in Tomb KV7, located in the Valley of the Kings, Egypt. He was the son of Seti I and Tuya and reigned from 1279 to 1213 BCE. He constructed monuments at Abu Simbel, Abydos, Rame sseum, L uxor, a nd Karnak. Coordinates 25.740776,32.601625 Description Current measurements divide the tomb into three levels: level 1, the entrance corridor; level 2, the pillared chamber; and level 3, the burial chamber and rooms. 3D mapping of the tomb enables measurements to be taken.

Possible Neolithic Stone Circle 

Possible Neolithic Stone Circle

In Neolithic times, it was normal to erect various stones, which would have meanings for altitude, location, or points of interest. As it approached towards the Bronze Age, a common building structure would be that of a circle. These would have astrological, astronomical, and mathematical connections.

Because of the size and weight of these structures, they would require a large group of people who wanted to spend time erecting them. These circles and structures were rarely copied, with each having a different meaning, although with a common theme, they could include similar numbers but positioned differently.


Along these lines, a possible Neolithic structure could appear as the following.

The measurements are connected to gravity, obliquity, escape velocity, and 10.
The 10 gives a multiplcation of that factor with the other numbers measured in metres and scaled appropriately.
9.81 m/s gravity
11426 m/s escape velocity

These measurements are then included in the monument via a triangle. For example, escape velocity at 11.4kms is divided by 1000 to give an angle of 11.42° with a side length 10m at 90°. The opposite side would be 2.02m.
The other side would be 9.81m long ending in an angle of 8.656° in a triangle of 90° would give a side of 1.22m.

Escape velocity 11.4kms
=11426.3424m/s
11426.3424÷1000
= 11.42° at 10m = 2.02m

Because 1.22 is very near to obliquity, then obliquity is included and gives an angle of 8.656° from the number of years from peak obliquity. Obliquity is equal to 0.0001170731°.

Peak obliquity 6642 bc
= 8.656° at 9.81m = 1.22m
6642+1985=8672 (1623 until mid point)
(8656 for 1969)


Because a scaling factor is required, this can be from a ring of stones around the outside. These would align from an angle of 25° (at maximum tilt) with a, 1 stone = 0 and 2 stones = 1.

1000 =11111000
and
³√1000
=10

The angle of 25° is used as 385000kms is the distance to the moon, which is divided by 1000 equalling 385 and 25° is 385-360°. This number would also go into height and possibly average width of radius from main stone.
This would make it 7.62m high and 15.24m wide.

The volume and weight of an object this size would be.
16 sqm² base
16×7.62 height
121.93 cubic m³
121.93×2.5=305 metric tons

A weight of 2.5 tonnes/m³ is for the average weight of sandstone with all measurements in metres.
As a comparison, the capstone on Gravinis is about 120 metric tons at 11m long (6:1 ratio).

Tomb of Tutankhamun

  Tomb of Tutankhamun The Tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62) is located in the Valley of the Kings, Egypt. It was excavated by archaeologist Howard Carter in 1922. The tomb belonged to Tutankhamun, who reigned 1332–1323 BC. His tomb is considered mostly intact and free from water damage. It consists of four rooms and a corridor, some of which are decorated. Artifacts recovered from the tomb are available to be seen in the Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza. Coordinates 25.740406,32.601356 Description Tuta nkhamun' s tomb lies in the Valley of the Kings, facing east, and is near the tomb of Ramesses II.  Th e measurements, from a study of the tomb, are available online.
