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...

Rujm el-Hiri

Rujm el-Hiri
Link below no changes


Rujm el-Hiri in the Golan Heights, Israel is an ancient monument thought to be Bronze Age.

Coordinates
32.908705°N 35.800705°E


The monument is made from a number of circular rings of basalt rock, 160m wide, and from 2.4m high at the edge to 4.6m at the centre.

Due to it's location the stone is mostly from the mountainous regions of the Golan Heights.
It lies on the boundary between the Kingdom of Jerusalem and the Great Seljuq Empire during the Crusader States, but it possibly played a role in the Silk Road, a route from the 2nd century bc China.
The walls of the monument could have been built standing and built with small tolerances similiar to many structures in that area depending on age, but it is also possible that it was built as it appears today.
(This could make it appear older, or it was a marker that just got expanded from land clearing for farm land).


Appearance
Rujm el-Hiri is circular in shape and somewhat maze like or shield like. It is near an object that resembles a snake. This could be the constellation of Serpens.

Serpens is a constellation that is split into two non-contiguous parts, Serpens Caput (Serpent Head) to the west and Serpens Cauda (Serpent Tail), this gives it a declination of +20° to -16°.


The Armenian Stonehenge is located northwest of its location and is considered as the constellation Hydra and Carter. Hydra has a large bright star called Alphard half way along it's length, Rujm el-Hiri has a snake shape near to it and so must be Serpens, in Serpens Caput the brightest star Alpha Serpentis lies half way along.

Alpha Serpentis
Right ascension 15h 44m 16.07431s
Declination +06° 25′ 32.2633″

As an angle, this is 225.2378°

As an angle for obliquity, it would give it an age of 4428 bc, which would put it as Neolithic.
225.2378÷360=0.6256°

10250×0.6256=6413.02
6413.02−1985=4428 bc

The Neolithic people didn't build structures of the constellations until 2700 bc (from 3300 bc individual stars were popular), but using the 0.6256° as a number to subtract from the location a difference of 0.06036° puts it in the Old City of Jerusalem.

Jerusalem
31.776849°N 35.235465°E
Rujm el-Hiri
32.908705°N 35.800705°E



The exact number 35.175105°E would put it near Motza illit, Israel a 9000 year archaeology site which was recently discovered in this area.
This is also inaccurate due to age, but the angle difference of 225° could equate to 225kms. The distance to Motza is between 208kms and 232.2kms depending on route.

Because of these inaccuracies, it was probably built as a distance and obliquity marker for direction to Jerusalem.





Other possibilities

The Silk Road started during the Han Dynasty 202 bc to 220 ad. The bi, a type of circular Chinese jade artefact associated with astronomy, was popular in the Han dynasty along with patterned end roof tiles from the Western Han dynasty with astrological depictions.


There are a number of buildings that connect directly to the snake shape, and certain angles values connect it to Rujum Al-Hiri, but these don't colerate to stars but possibly to islands in the Adriatic Sea.
Vis on one side and Brač/Hvar/Korčula the other.

Measuring from the island of Vis connects to Xinjiang in the Western Han dynasty, a distance of 2020km.
From the monument to the buildings, they produce angles, and these (offset 16°) produce locations, 3285 shapes of a snake, 4350 groups of three buildings in the Caspian Sea and one building at the measured distance.
The 3285 equals 32°N 85°E a location inside China and 4350 equals 43°N 50°E a location inside Russia currently underwater in the Caspian Sea.


The rocks are volcanic basalt columns made from extruded basalt cooled and eroded.
A possible Roman numeral 'LXXV', which equals 75, is also produced from the patterns of the stones. This could equate to 75 bc or 75 ad.



Conclusion 
The Roman numeral would be needed if built during the Romans as they were known to destroy or dismantle them.
The location and astrological theme would also put it about this era during the Silk Road, the obvious distance marker to Motza, Jerusalem hides the more complex distance and coordinates of a snake in the mountains and similar three buildings, no longer visible underwater.
Some effort was put into it not only the number of stones and size but also the connection to the constellation Serpens which was measured from a location very near to Greenwich as it is done in the 21st century.

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...
