Gorsedd Circle The Gorsedd Circle is a stone circle in Fishguard, Wales. The Gorsedd Stones are a Welsh tradition of modern stone circles constructed for the National Eisteddfod of Wales. These stone circles can be found at several locations, including Aberdare Park and Anglesey. They are typically 20 metres wide and have 12 stones on the circumference with a level stone in the circle. A further stone is usually set back from the circumference; the central stone is called the Logan Stone. Coordinates 51.996431,-4.975040 Stone Circle Gorsedd Circle is a typical stone circle but has 13 stones on the circumference with one inset. It was erected in 1936 and has the names of the parishes inscribed on each stone. Ceremony During the opening ceremony, the Archdruid stands on the Logan Stone facing the Stone of the Covenant. Two stones mark the entrance and are called the Portal Stones. These mar k the midsummer and midwinter sunrises. Gorsedd Circle (no edit) Archeology7...
Meini Gwyr
Meini Gwyr is a monument in Wales.
Coordinates 51.906812,-4.703010
Grimes in 1938 measured the monument at 36.6m in diameter, and excavations showed that there was a narrow entrance to the west with no ditch surrounding the site, just a raised embankment.
Two standing stones remind from a possible 17, one 1m and 1.7m high, respectively, standing 6.5m apart.
Whether this was originally an entire circle can only be guessed at, excavations show locations of stones with an entrance directly opposite the sloping stone at just over 36°.
The reason for not necessarily having an entire circle is that the two stones, although marked towards sunrise, depict the moon in two different phase locations. The upright represents a 'waxing gibbous' phase with the sloping a 'waning gibbous' (carved so as to appear the shape).
This monument is associated with the number 6455 and is used as days and years (a similarity to 4655 from Gravinis, and might have been interpreted as this).
The use of 6455 as a number of days is 17.7 years, which is 0.9268, which is a difference off 18.6 years, a moon's cycle.
0.926 is a number connected with a 1km gnomon.
6455÷365.2425=17.673−18.6
17.673−18.6=0.9268
The size of the circle could mean a year at 36.6m, and height difference could mean obliquity, not needing a circle but a necessary measure for year.
Obliquity × years = height difference
0.0001170731×6455=0.7557
Although this varies it by 476 years from just 0.7, a difference of 5.57cms in height measurement.
Possibly, it hadn't existed, and sediment increase being 1 foot/10000 years roughly could have reduced this along with the attraction of site decreasing it, but the effect should be similar for both.
Neolithic people rarely used dates and would use an angle of tilt or obliquity to date their monuments. The size or angles would hint at their date and meaning, in this case, it suggests 'year' and moon location in two separate locations. Although this is the spacing and not the build year, the probable build year is the use of the number of days in 6455 years as a difference off a 28-day and 29.53 day month.
The 36° entrance connects start location with its finish location on the sloping stone. This also depicts a moon phase. The 36° entrance is towards the northwest.
In this duration of time (6455 years), the moon would have completed 13 rotations per year. Dividing by 28 days in a month and 29.53 days in a lunar month.

The sidereal/synodic produces a number vary similiar to 6455 were as a perennial/synodic produces a probably date of 2377 bc, the use of the number 6455 in multiple ways suggests it is a primer with the other number as the date.
From another pairing of stones, the Lochmaben Stone, which holds the same theme and has been dated to 3000 bc, has shown that the two are connected.

For this to be correct a different way of interpreting 2377 is used and this is also from Gravinis, the number 4655 is obtained from subtracting 855 from 5510, if this is applied with 2377 then 3133 bc is achieved.
5510-2377=3133
This then dates it inside of twenty years of each other.
