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. Measurements Entrance corridor; 22.90m by 2.61m /44 by 5 cubits Floor area: 220 sq cubits Opening in corridor 8.35m by 8.35m by 3.7m Floor area: 70 sq m² Volume: 259m³/1795 cubit³ Room off corridor 7.85×8.48×3.10 m Floor area: 66.50 sq m Volume: 206.4 m³/1442.5 cubit³ Room off corridor (2) 5.38×3.30×2.63 m Floor area: 46.7 sq m Volume 46.7 m³/326.4 cubit³ End of corridor 6.3×5.72×2.82 Floor area: 36 sq m Volume: 101.6 m³/7...

Khufu's Chamber

Although the ancient Egyptians used cubits, they also used whole units and feet, but a standardized unit of a cubit could be carried through to most builds.
With the King's Chamber in Khufu's pyramid, it shows that the room was built in cubits, but the measurements were made in metres.
The sarcophagus height connects with the shafts, and the passage connects with the width and the length with a ratio. It is also possible with standardization that the sarcophagus was cut from a standard size block, which may have been there or brought in.

Dimensions
10 wide (royal cubits)
20 long
10.2 high

The ratio of the room is 2:1, as 1 cubit is 0.523m, then 2 cubits is 1.046m, the volume would be 2042 cubits³ or 292m³
If the room is five blocks high, then each block is 1.07m high and not 1.046m (2 cubits) as might have been expected, a difference of 2 cms more per block.
Assuming height is 5.33m and it isn't inaccurately measured, then the number is probably 5.32m high (connected with measurements per year), with each 1.064m high, making the shafts 15.4cms high.

The volume of the chamber is 2042, and it has a connection with the sarcophagus height. The 9πφ is a π/φ ratio inside of a circle this might have a number of different meanings.
√2042=45.189
9πφ=45.749
45.189÷45.749=0.987
With this, any difference doesn't alter very much with the difference at about 0.987m.

The sarcophagus measures 0.987m high, 1.051m wide, and 2.276m long. It has a volume of 16.5 cubits³ or 2.36m³.

The number 10.46 (20 cubits) has appeared before and is connected to a straight line of y=mx+c, which can also give a gradient.

This number is derived from Nabta Playa, giving these numbers, adjusting for x,y.
(21,221), (2112,22112)
y = 10.46x + 1.14
m is the gradient of the line, and c is the y-intercept where the graph crosses the x-axis. 1.14 is a point on the x-axis with a slope of 10.46x.

It has been shown that 1.14m is the size of a cross section of some of the perimeter stones.
The volume of the sarcophagus is 16.5 cubits, but at 16 cubits, there is a connection with pi.
The connection between the cubit and π is 16 cubits÷5π.
(0.523×16)÷(3.142×5)=0.532
5π×(0.532)÷(0.523)=16


φ ratio, π and cubit connections for a φ circle
Area=(φ÷(2 cubits-(φ÷√2)))÷2=8.22
Area of two circles plus separation distance
2((φ÷(2 cubits-(φ÷√2)))÷2 + (3÷60)=16.5

Bachwen Dolmen

Bachwen Dolmen The Bachwen Dolmen burial chamber is located near Clynnog-fawr, Caernarfon, Wales. A number of cupmarks exist on the monument, it is notably wedge shaped and with this points out to sea at an angle of 28° towards the northwest. The support stones support this wedge on the sides so are also at 28°, the elevation is 24m. Coordinates 53.018891,-4.375356 Possibilities  There are three possible explanations for this chamber, (1) it is angled so as to align with the Major standstill or (2) it aligns with tilt and angle away for date or (3) two numbers are used and connects with a date. (1) The Major standstill is currently 28.725°, for it to be this, there must be a further stone to give Minor standstill, difference in between or 0.725° as it isn't measurable to that accuracy. (2) More likely it is maximum tilt 20° and 8° tilt for that year. 8÷1.55=5.1613 5.1613×1000=5161.3 5161.3-1985=3176.3 bc 8° equates as 3176 bc. (3) The only numbers used are 28 and 24, from ...
