Gorsedd Circle

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...

Callanish Standing Stones 

Callanish Standing Stones

The Callanish Stones are near the village of Callanish on the west coast of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland.
They are also known as the Calanais Standing Stones.

Further to the Callanish stones are the Callanish II and Callanish III sites, which lie just over a kilometre southeast of the main Callanish Stones. In addition to them are the Callanish IV, Callanish VIII, and Callanish X sites, and in total there are over twenty sites of varying size.

Callanish II at 22° southeast
Callanish III at 10° southeast
Callanish IV at 53° southeast
Callanish V at 52° southeast
Callanish VI at 35° southeast
Callanish VII at 52° southeast
Callanish VIII at 10° northwest
Callanish IX at 55° southeast
Callanish X at 24° northeast

Callanish I
If the north-pointing stones depict numbers, like one row has stones in groups of 3, 5, 1 which could be considered as 351° as the rows are at 9° (from the north), the other row has groups of stones as 1, 3, 1, 3 put as 1313.
Applying this to the other rows, the south row at 4° could be interpreted as 3101, the west as 9° and 4 stones, and the east as 13° and 5 stones.

North 351°/1313
South 4°/3101
West 9°/4
East 13°/5

The central circle has 13 stones: 1 in the centre and a sunken cairn at right angles to this central stone at about 0°/1° toward the east. A further single stone is outside at 73° toward the centre. There is also a curvature over the entire monument that is shaped comparably to a sunset.



If the southern row is a direction and distance, east/west could be 9,13 at 45° as the northern is 9,13,13.
The northern could be 351-1313 = 962, a number of a gnomon along with the sunken cairn, which is known to be used for astronomical measurements.
This, though, is aligned east/west at maximum tilt, so it wasn't used for this but rather as a monument to astrology (possibly). 9 multiplied by 13 is 117 (roughly 10⁶ × obliquity), and obliquity is 2.4 mm/year. If multiplied by 10⁶, it would equal 2.4 km. 
It is unclear if this means anything, as some stones are within this distance but not all.
Within a triangle of 13 by 9 at 45°, the area is 41, and the perimeter is 31.
Considering the group of cairns 386 km away in Dumfries and Galloway, which are split 13/13/17 km, the numbers 13 and 41 appear there also.

Due to the common numbers, they are used to obtain numbers from angles of 13° and 41° from the circle.

13° clockwise
2,1,1,2,1,2,2

13° anti-clockwise
2,1,1,1,2,2

2×√(2122)=92.130
2׳√(22)=5.604
Added=97.734

41° clockwise
1,2,1,2,1,1,1,2

41° anti-clockwise
2,2,1,1,2,2,1

1212׳√(2)=1527.024
22×√(221)=327.05
Added=1854.074

Interestingly, if 90 is subtracted from 97.734 and a date derived from 7.734, it would equal 3101. This is not a date because of this, but the year could be 1854 bc.
(1854 could also equate as knots)
1854.074 and 97.734
7.734÷1.55=4.989
4.989×1000=4989
4989-1985=3004
3004.68+97=3101.68


Applying the same to the outside stone which is at 73°.
73° clockwise
1,1,1,1,2,1,2,2

73° anti-clockwise
2,2,2,1,1,1,1

³√(2,122)׳√(222)=77.8



Conclusion
If we consider the simplest idea, then the Callanish Standing Stones I are in the shape of a sunset because of the direction of the curve. If we consider similar possibilities, it is the Sun during a lunar eclipse.

(Something like this shape would happen during an eclipse, but without the central circle, this then suggests it is on a planet or moon.)

A typical lunar eclipse is defined by date/time, event, and direction, and particularly as "beginning, maximum, end, and duration, with altitude and magnitude."
Assuming this is correct, then the other Callanish Standing Stones could be similar events marked in the direction they occurred. It seems that most are toward the southeast.

The inclusion of the 13° and 41° ties it to the builds at Dumfries and Galloway. If there is a connection using numbers connected to the Giza pyramids at those locations, then there is one at Callanish.
From the 73° outside stone that isn’t used, the number 77.8 is obtained, and assuming that the year is 1854 bc, the following number is produced.

³√(2122)׳√(222)=77.8
1854 bc=5.95045°
If 1854 bc
((((5.95045+77.8)−90)÷1.55)×1000)+1985=2046

This would be enough to date all monuments at about the same time, but it is only one stone. Here also, the date could be used for the calculation, so leaving only 2500 bc by connection to the other constructions in Dumfries and Galloway.

It is too simple to be a lunar eclipse. It does have an extra stone connecting to other structures, so there must be some eclipse numbers and their numbering system included.


This is the information about the lunar eclipse of June 5, 2020.
A penumbral lunar eclipse occurred on June 5, 2020. It was the second of four penumbral lunar eclipses in that year.

In the application to the Callanish Standing Stones I, there is a date or duration defined by 9, 13, 13.
At Callanish, they have demonstrated a subtraction that gives a standard number like 962. If we apply this to the other numbers, 9,13 at 45°,
these are converted into
9-13 and 45 =-4:45
(The minus could be before 12 noon or 12 midnight. The greatest point is noted as 4 hours 35 minutes before midnight)

It seems like it is a representation of an umbra or penumbra toward one side.
An early morning eclipse is possible, as is a sunrise/sunset.
Other numbers are altitude and magnitude, as the magnitude is probably depicted on the circle, then the altitude possibly is from 9, 13, 13 (if not a date, but this is unlikely as they are accurate with angles, and an angle is all that's required).

It could also be forward-aligned. For instance, at maximum tilt, on May 4, 1985, a lunar eclipse occurred.
From 5:21 p.m. until 10:31 p.m., it achieved total eclipse at 7:56 p.m.
17:21:17
22:31:33

It is possible to extract the maximum tilt and May 4th from Callanish I.
The 351 depicts the maximum tilt, and it is unclear what the 1313 number represents. The duration of the eclipse was 5 hours and 10 minutes.

The surrounding Callanish stones are mostly to the southeast, but VIII and X are different and are 4.5 and 1.7 kilometers away, respectively.
Callanish VIII is 4.5 kilometers away.
Callanish X is 1.7 kilometers away.

Since there isn’t a Callanish stone at 10.5 kilometers, and most are about 5 kilometers away, it could represent a duration of 5 hours and 10 minutes by 5 kilometers away in a group of 10.

Other numbers can be produced if using ancient Egyptian numbers, as it is possible to derive a sea route using knots.
This would equate to 2133 miles, 65 miles further than the current distance of 2068 miles using 1854 nautical miles. The 1313 nautical miles could reach Greenland, as 1511 miles.
It is possible that these numbers signify accuracy, as they do when included in other monuments.

Another possibility is that it represents a solar eclipse.
Two solar eclipses occurred in 1854 bc.
March 2, 1854 bc at 1:40 p.m.
August 27, 1854 bc at 4:42 a.m.
The March solar eclipse occurred in the constellation of Aries. Aries is curved in shape. The August solar eclipse occurred in the constellation of Virgo. Virgo is best described as a central part with four paths of stars leading away.
Neither constellation describes the stone circle, but both might be included. The 1313 number might just produce 962.

Bachwen Dolmen

Bachwen Dolmen The Bachwen Dolmen burial chamber is located near Clynnog-fawr, Caernarfon, Wales. A number of cupmarks exist on the monument, it is notably wedge shaped and with this points out to sea at an angle of 28° towards the northwest. The support stones support this wedge on the sides so are also at 28°, the elevation is 24m. Coordinates 53.018891,-4.375356 Possibilities  There are three possible explanations for this chamber, (1) it is angled so as to align with the Major standstill or (2) it aligns with tilt and angle away for date or (3) two numbers are used and connects with a date. (1) The Major standstill is currently 28.725°, for it to be this, there must be a further stone to give Minor standstill, difference in between or 0.725° as it isn't measurable to that accuracy.

Queen's Chamber 

Queen's Chamber 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?
