Tomb of Ramesses IV

 Tomb of Ramesses IV The pharaoh Ramesses IV was buried in Tomb KV2, located in the Valley of the Kings, Egypt. The tombs of Ramesses II and VII are on either side. Ramesses died at the age of 27 in 1148 BC. He is connected to the Temple of Khonsu at Karnak. Coordinates 25.741530,32.602080 Description  The tomb is of similar design to others in that it has a corridor to the burial chamber with side rooms. It is thought to be about 75 metres long and declines about 10 metres from the entrance. Chamber E, as the antechamber, has stars painted on the ceiling. Chamber K is built with side rooms, and the burial chamber J has a vaulted ceiling with astrological patterns along with the sarcophagus. Coptic monks were said to have lived in the tomb, and in the 19th century, explorers like Jean-François Champollion had camped there. Earlier, Romans were said to have left what is considered as graffiti in the tomb. Measurements These are the tombs' measurements in metres, including the a...

Queen's Chamber 

Queen's Chamber
CC BY-SA 3.0

Queen's Chamber Khufu's pyramid is below the King's chamber and is of a similar size and shape but with the difference that it includes a niche.
The chamber is constructed of smaller blocks with the walls made up of six blocks high, and the niche is formed from a gap of these six block layers.
The gap starts at three cubits wide and reduces to one cubit with an angle of 12°.

It has been stated that Khufu's chamber sarcophagus which measures 0.987m high, 1.051m wide and 2.276m long and with a volume of 16.5 cubits³ or 2.36m³ is connected by volume to a circle, 2 cubits and the golden ratio but what is the Queen's Chamber connected to?

Measurements
Width 10 cubits=5.23m
Length 11 cubits=5.756
Height 8.95 cubits=4.68m
Total height 11.816 cubits=6.18m
Entrance height/width
1.72m/1.046m
Niche (various)
1.27m-0.523m


Volume
140.88m³
984.92 cubits³
4975.35 ft³

Total height
6.18m ÷10= reciprocal of the golden ratio

Door ratio cubits/m
2 by 3.28
(1.72÷1.046)=1.644 (0.03 off φ)


Possible interpretations
Possible interpretations are (all in cubits)
width × length × niche slope=1320 cubit³
or
width × length × height=1300 cubit³
10×11×12=1320
10×11×11.816
1320-1300=20


In m³
186.042÷17.74=10.49
10.49−10.46=0.02715m³

Sphere for 0.02715m³ = 0.1855m
So the volume is 10.46φ + 0.1855 cubits

This can be considered as 10.46 spheres of radius φ plus a smaller 0.1855 radius sphere of ratio (1.046÷(1+φ)).


Total/Actual volume in m³
140.886+45.156
140.886+22.578

In cubits
√1300=36.052
√1143=33.805

King's chamber
√2042=45.189

Queen's chamber
Ceiling (√2042+0.03)÷2
Room ³√(2042÷984)


Here it shows that the room is considered as a height of 6.18m with the two proportions deduced as ratios of Khufu's chamber.
The ceiling of the Queen's chamber in m³ is proportional with Khufu's chamber in the ratio √volume plus 0.03, both rooms are proportional to the cubed root of their ratios ³√King/Queen, the ratio is √φ.
The factor of 0.03 could be the entrance ratio error off φ, or with this just being a building limitation. Multiplying the two numbers then a number 1.8 is achieved and connects with the volume of the sphere as 0.1855m extra.
The 0.1855m radius is very similar to the volume in cubits of 0.02715m³ which equals 0.185 cubits³.

(0.1855° is also a number for obliquity from maximum tilt to mid point obliquity, max tilt was in 1985, and mid point is 1584 years later)

Le dolmen de la Table des Marchands

Le dolmen de la Table des Marchands The dolmen of the Table des Marchands is a tomb located in Locmariaquer , Brittany, France . Along with the Er-Grah tumulus  and the Broken Menhir of Er Grah , they are the Locmariaquer megaliths . The Er-Grah tumulus is a cairn. The Broken Menhir of Er Grah refers to the broken menhir (which no longer stands) but includes what is thought to be a row of menhirs replaced by small local stones. Coordinates 47.571636,-2.949732 Description The tomb and cairn are located on an outcrop on the mainland at almost the same latitude as Gravinis and about 4 kilometers east. The tomb's entrance is at a 45° angle toward the southeast and is built from the same stone as the Er-Grah tumulus. It is a two-layer structure and roughly circular. One layer is 20 metres and the other 29 metres wide, and 15 metres and 23 metres long, respectively. Analysis Taking the difference in coordinates between the two sites as,...

Armenian Stonehenge

Armenian Stonehenge Carahunge is a prehistoric archaeological site near the town of Sisian in the Syunik Province of Armenia, also known as Zorats Karer and often referred to in international tourist lore as the "Armenian Stonehenge." Coordinates  39.551657,46.028949 Only a few of the Neolithic stone structures are representative of stellar objects; one of these is the Armenian Stonehenge (Constellation Crater and Hydra), which contains 223 stones. Greek and Roman constellations originated from the Chaldean and Babylonian people.  Some have suggested that it resembles the stars in the M8 Lagoon Nebula, with a central group of stars surrounded by a ring of stars leading in opposite directions. Description  The Armenian Stonehenge is aligned north-south at its maximum peak in 1985. On the northern side, there is a circular section that features an underground room. This room, along with its corridors, could have been a religious prayer room. Possibilities  The possi...
