Easter Island Part of Chile, Easter Island, is in the southeastern Pacific Ocean. On the island are 1000 monumental statues, called Moai, which are thought to have been created by the early Rapa Nui people. The monuments are created from a single piece of volcanic igneous rock, as is the island itself. There is one large crater and several raised circular mounds, with a few semi-circular in shape. These were most likely created during the formation and cooling of the island. Monuments The monuments could be considered statues and aligned toward various locations. The Ahu Ature Huki monument aligns with a point on the Chilean coast just north of Lima, angled at 29°. In this area, Lima, Moche, and Nazca cultures existed from 100 bc to 600 ad. All three of these cultures were superseded by the Wari culture. This could have represented a possible foreboding of an emerging Nazca culture. The people who built the Moai statues were likely Polynesian, carrying their style and culture throu...

Thornborough Henges The Thornborough Henges are an ancient monument complex made up of three henges. The complex is located near the village of Thornborough, close to the town of Masham in North Yorkshire, England. The site includes other structures, including a cursus, henges, burial grounds, and settlements. Although thought to have been part of a Neolithic and Bronze Age 'ritual landscape', it has been shown to be originally Neolithic before being built on again in the Bronze Age. So dating is comparable to between 3500 and 2500 bc. Meaning There are a number of stone monuments made up of three separate parts and individual stone monuments connected together in threes. These could be representative of an angle or an alignment. In this case, it is a conjunction, an alignment of three planets which could pin point a date to the nearest year or month. (As the Earth rotates yearly, this would be less common for it ...

Armenian Stonehenge Carahunge is a prehistoric archaeological site near the town of Sisian in the Syunik Province of Armenia. It is also often referred to in international tourist lore as the "Armenian Stonehenge" and also known as Zorats Karer.   Coordinates  39.551657,46.028949 Only a few of the Neolithic stone structures are representive of stella objects. One of these is the Armenian Stonehenge (Constellation Carter and Hydra), it contains 223 stones.  Greek and Roman constellations originated from the Chaldea and Babylonian people.  Description  The Armenian Stonehenge is aligned north/south at maximum peak 1985. On the northern side, there is a circular part that has a room built underground. This room with corridors could be a religious prayer room. Possibilities  From a possibility of which Chinese constellations conflicted with the rise of European interpretations of the Vermilion Bird an...

Arbor Low Arbor Low is a Neolithic henge monument in the Peak District, 295 ft long by 279 ft wide. It is considered a stone circle and, like many circles, represents a mathematical number or coordinate and direction.  There are 28 stones on the circumference with 2 others in the middle. A ditch runs around the outside and is important in size to the measurements that are in feet. There is a somewhat random positioning of the stones, but this is because of what it represents. The stones are also installed horizontally, unlike other stone circles. Meaning There is a possibility of it being forward offset so as to be able to include the number 3600. If it is offset by the angle of 37° then 2 stones align at 37°, if not then 2 stones point east/west which align at 4°. Using the angles and the 3600, the following is produced with the years coinciding with known solar eclipses. (1694 bc/1906) (1677 bc/1923) and 1970. From the two measured widths of 295 ft ...

Devil's Arrows The Devil's Arrows are three standing stones (possibly Neolithic) in an alignment in Boroughbridge in North Yorkshire. The locations Devil's Quoits, Gavrinis, and Devil's Arrows could be connected by the constellation of Orion. A distance of 455 miles connects to the Neolithic Gavrinis (altitude 11m but 19m overall) with the Devil's Arrows site at an angle of 8.2° and altitude of 19m (the same as Giza). It can be suggested that the Egyptians from the 4th dynasty reached the British Isles and connected the sites together. They could have achieved this by adjusting the Neolithic circle at Devil's Quoits to give √22 then in Boroughbridge carve and align the stones so as to link to Gavrinis (8.2°), there a number 8 was used and when passing Woodhenge they added further logs to achieve the required ratios. An area of 14612 sq miles forms a triangle between Gravinis and Devil's Arrows, when dividing by the angle gives 1778, a number very s...

Merry Maidens of Boleigh Stone Circle Located between Lamorna and St Buryan in Cornwall with current coordinates 50.065065,-5.588525. 19 stones count in the circle with 1 outside, making a total of 20. The 1 outside stone is thought to have been moved. An angle of 41° is from the moved stone cutting through as a diameter, which is currently at 13°, the 54° is from the finish location, these subtracted =41°. Using these angles produces sets of numbers. At 41° 2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1 Then, at 54° from the finish location 1,1,1,1,2,2,2,0,2,2 One interpretation is to superimpose one set of numbers onto the other with a rotation of 85°. This is an angle of 46° to align with '0'. 1,1,1,1,2,2,2,0,2,2                            2                            2                         ...

Khufu’s pyramid shafts Do the internal shafts in Khufu’s pyramid mean anything? There has been some speculation as to the purpose of the shafts, which align north/south and are connected to both the King's and Queen's chambers. They vary in inclination, and there are a number of different measurements, but the ones used are listed below. Using the angles from Khufu's pyramid (links below). King’s Chamber 45°/32.5° Queen’s Chamber 39.5°/39° Analysis  The shaft angles vary by 5.5/6.5 between the two and 12.5°/0.5° between themselves. The curvature is 6.43° at 29° latitude, meaning at 23.5° tilt, the horizon would be 6.43° less. This also links with the ratio 7 by 5.5 at 51.8° inclination. A scaling factor of 11°/7° is also connected from construction. As the pyramids are above the equator as Earth tilts towards Vega, their tilt location angle is subtracted from the tilt angle, and as it tilts back towards Polaris it is added. (The expected location for the 39.5°/39...

Newgrange By the time Grange Stone Circle was built in 3249 bc a significant community was already present in the area, this is because stone circles were rarely lived-in structures, and they took a large group to build. The community could have originated from the Newgrange area, and they could have been established for 260 years based on other builds and the size of it's construction. A distinct correlation also exists with Gravinis, an older Neolithic tomb in Brittany. Taking the style of the building and building their own in a similar distinct style suggests that Gravinis had been altered at some time as it doesn't conform to the sculpted style of the latter. The similarity continues, it has a height of 12m to the building and a capstone but is much higher above sea level, orientated towards southwest at 47.5° (36° Gravinis) and a distinct variation to the entrance passage which held some meaning with the overall build. Trees would have been common place in the count...

Boscawen-Ûn/Nine Maidens Boscawen-Ûn in Cornwall and Nine Maidens in Devon are linked. Coordinates  50.089814,-5.619335 Both are stone circles, Boscawen-Ûn is an elliptical circle with a diameter 24.9 by 21.9 metres (82 by 72 ft). (The Gorseth Kernow was inaugurated at Boscawen-Ûn in 1928). There are 19 stones on the circumference with a further one in the middle.  The Nine Maidens stone circle is partially intact, but the cairn and cist have been destroyed. This is also an elliptical circle, although more tear drop and offset by 10° to the vertical. Angles Here, the difference from the base is multipled by the difference from the 90° angle. 41×3=123°-90°=33° 41°-33°=8° This produces a difference from base equal to 8° (about). When measuring the angles the stones make about a marker point of 41°. Here the following are produced by measuring clockwise from this angle. Clockwise from 41° 22,4,31,48,(),73,+88,(),59,41,22,+4,(-15) Difference 19,18,35,17,(),25,19,(),29,...

Grange Stone Circle Grange stone circle (Lios na Gráinsí or Fort of the Grange) The dating of the circle puts in between 2950-2850 bc (link below). 113 stones, which vary in composition, 86 limestone 24 volcanic breccia 2 sandstone 1 basalt Description  Clay of 0.4m depth is said to be used as infill, with a 45.5m average diameter and a further smaller circle at 10° north and a sloping stone at 20° north. The entrance is orientated towards 30° from the east. This doesn't necessarily mean it is forward aligned but rather 7-7.5° away from max tilt. This is assuming that it was solstice aligned when constructed, as the case is with most, either representing equinox, solstice, sunrise, or sunset. Analysis  Two unusual stones at 20° separation are points 45°/65° which most likely mark maximum tilt separation, 30° points at -30°, 30° and 60° mark 30° separation with the 45° point being 15° marking hours. The 65° at 5° separation is considered an authentication ston...
