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.

Olympia

Olympia

Olympia is a small town in Elis on the Peloponnese peninsula in Greece.
It was a major Panhellenic religious sanctuary of ancient Greece, where the ancient Olympic Games were held. Although dedicated to the Greek god Zeus, it is unconnected to Mount Olympus and the Twelve Olympians, which were the major deities of Ancient Greek religion.

The ancient Greek Olympic Games were held every four years, from the 8th century bc to the 4th century ad.

Angles for buildings 
Temple of Zeus 8°
Temple of Hera 3.97°
Ancient Olympic Stadium 23°
Leonidaio 20°
Main route 16°

Coordinates 
Kurd, Hungary
46.489649,18.216799
Olympia, Greece
37.636751,21.629804

If the coordinates of the location in Hungary are taken roughly as 46 and 18 and then connected to the building angles and then with π.

46×18=828
4×8×23=736
Difference
828-736=92

(92÷23=4)
π−3=0.14159
0.14159÷1.55=91.3500991
91.3500991÷23=3.9717434391




The reason for this could be to give a more accurate angle, which in turn would be a more accurate date, or a distance as part of a circle, so could be multipled by the radian.
This, though, is one of many points that could fit along this 16° north facing road.
A possible date, distance, and new coordinates.

3.9717÷1.55=2.5624
2.5624×1000=2562.4
2562.42−1985=577.42 bc


3.9717×57.296=227.565
227.5650÷111.3194=2.04425
21.629804-18.216799=3.413005

From Olympia's coordinates and adding the 227 as kms gives a value of 2.04425 for longitude and 0.306249 for latitude.

21.629804+2.044252136=23.674056136

Coordinates (longitude)
37.636751,23.674056136

Coordinates (latitude)
37.943000,23.674056136
(37.943000-37.636751=0.306249)


In a distance, this is a triangle 227.565 km by 34.09 km with an angle of 7.532° and a distance of 229.5 km to Athens, Greece. As a direct journey, the angle increases to 7.598°


37.636751,21.629804
2.026302+21.629804=23.656106

The alternative puts the distance about 1.5kms west in the Pireas area.
37.943000,23.65610669




Conclusion
This site holds a similarly to Rujm el-Hiri in the angle of 16° and distance of 225.2378 kms, which could be a direction to Jerusalem.
Another possibility is that it is a copy of the meaning for Olympia, the 16° north road and distance to Athens but using 227.565kms as the direct route and 225.566kms as the horizontal distance, the difference between these two is 0.329kms.

225.566-225.2378=0.329kms

The difference in measurement can be accounted for as the measurement used is from the end of the main road and in itself is about 300m west of the grandstand of the Olympic Stadium.


This would then put Rujm el-Hiri no older than 800 bc but more accurately nearer to the Romans in the 1st century bc to 1st century ad.
This also just uses triangles to calculate distance on a curved surface and uses the equatorial circumference for both latitude and longitude.




The distance to Kurd is 1056kms at 16° north in the 20th century, if subtracted by the angle 3.97° and that number divided by 60 as if coverting into minutes, as a ratio from 360 gives the number 0.7 which can be used for obliquity with a date given.

16−3.97=12.03
12.03×1056=12703.68
12703.68÷60=211.728 minutes
360-211.728=148.272
148.272÷211.728=0.7
0.7×10250=7178.0208

This number then is subtracted from maximum tilt and from peak obliquity, giving two numbers.
7178.0208-1985=5193
7178.0208-6642=536

Taking these two numbers and splitting them so that by giving coordinates, the following is produced.
51.93 or 51°N 93°E
5.36 or 5°N 36°E

The angle between the two points is 44° in the 20th century ad and in the 5th century bc it is 40.03°.

44-3.97=40.03

From earlier, a number of 225.56kms was achieved. If this number is also split for coordinates, it gives the longitude.
225.56 = 22.56°

Official coordinates
40°05′08″N 22°21′31″E
New coordinates
40°03' N 22°56' E

The new coordinates are about 15kms southeast of Mt.Olympus and visable from the coast at Leptokarya and an angular distance of 3° accounting for the π-3.

This suggests that the maximum tilt to 577 bc is 3.97°, 'Olympus', but the conversion is quite obscure.
(Minutes, degrees, obliquity, and coordinates).

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...

Duddo Five Stones

Duddo Five Stones Duddo Five Stones is a stone circle a kilometer north of the town of Duddo, Berwick-upon-Tweed; these stones are similar to The Goatstones at Ravensheugh Crags southwest of Duddo. Duddo Stone Circle was known as the Four Stones until 1903 when five stones were erected, but it is considered to have had seven stones. This is due to the western side, where two stones may have been. The circle is considered to be from the Bronze Age, as is The Goatstones. Coordinates 55.686774,-2.112202 Description There are currently five stones on a circular base, which give the appearance of a pointer. From this pointer, they are angled at 17° toward the southeast. The stones are random in shape, suggesting they date to the early Bronze Age or earlier. Anaylsis If the stones are paired at an angle of 73° for two pairs, this corresponds to an angle of 17° toward the northwest/southeast. The corresponding calculation results in 39.05, which could be sunrise. The east/west stones are 5 me...
