Tomb of Ramesses II

Tomb of Ramesses II Ramesses II, also known as Ramesses the Great, was buried in Tomb KV7, located in the Valley of the Kings, Egypt. He was the son of Seti I and Tuya and reigned from 1279 to 1213 BCE. He constructed monuments at Abu Simbel, Abydos, Rame sseum, L uxor, a nd Karnak. Coordinates 25.740776,32.601625 Description Current measurements divide the tomb into three levels: level 1, the entrance corridor; level 2, the pillared chamber; and level 3, the burial chamber and rooms. 3D mapping of the tomb enables measurements to be taken.

Great Pyramid of Cholula

The Great Pyramid of Cholula, also known as Tlachihualtepetl, is a complex located in Cholula, Puebla, Mexico. 
It has the largest volume of any pyramid that exists in the world today.
The adobe brick pyramid stood 55m tall (180 ft) above the surrounding plain with a base of 450m.

Thought to have been dedicated to the god Quetzalcoatl, with building starting in the 3rd century bc and continuing in stages until 9th century ad. The architectural style of the building was linked closely to that of Teotihuacan in the Valley of Mexico, although influence from the Gulf Coast is also evident, especially from El Tajín.

Coordinates
19.058022,-98.302668

Description
From it's layout it was suggested that the pyramid was approached by steps three layers high followed by a seven layer structure, in reality only the base layer of the seven exists with a side elevation of three layers, a small alter at 6° from the north lies at the entrance.

Measurements
55m high
450m wide
The entrance measures 24.5° towards the northwest. This leaves the possibility that the small alter is at 6.5° or 6.125°.
(24.5 divided by 4 equals 6.125)

In a 90° triangle, if using the above numbers as 0.5 as an angle and 24.5 as the far side, the average length is 2807, divided by 6.125 gives 458.
0.5° as a year by itself equates as 322 years.
0.5÷1.55=0.322
0.322×1000=322
2807÷6.125=458

From the ancient city of Pella which used Greek and Megalithic cubit lengths, to convert a distance measurement of 212m into two values of 458 and 450, it was shown that the 458 was the value used from Megalithic cubics as opposed from a conversion to Greek cubics which would be 450 cubits.
462.5 cubits (458 cubits)
454.25 cubits (450 cubits)
At Pella, the reduction in golden ratios from 458 was 7 steps.

If as stated, the building started in the 3rd century bc, assuming 300 bc the angle for this year is 3.54°.
(This could imply a Greek year of 354 days)
As 55 as a number isn't used at Pella, the width in feet (1476 ft) can be divided by 458, giving 3.22
1476÷458=3.22
(This could be 322m as one increase from 458)



Conclusion
It was shown that if the area of Pella was increased by a golden ratio it would make the sides 332m by 332m, if using the Ancient Greek's largest area measurement a Plethron, then the area would measure as 116.534 Plethrons.
When using an anomalistic month of length 27.554551 days, in the 3rd increase, the value would be 116.
27.554551×1.618

Cholula pyramid has been measured as 450m wide. If the conversion factor is 1.0177 for a Greek/Megalithic cubic and the other measurement available is height as 55m then multiplying together gives 55.98. This gives one coordinate value, the other value could be from the number of layers plus the angle of 6.5° added to angle at maximum tilt.
Adding the 6.5° could connect to the pyramids at Giza via the circumference. This seemed to be quite common from the 9th-12th century ad.

55×1.0177=55.98
55.98-19.05=36.93

36.93−6.5=30.43
30.43-7=23.43

36.93+6.5=43.43
40075÷43.43=922.75

If there is a connection from 116.534 Plethrons and an anomalistic month of length 27.554551 days then there is also a connection to the cube of the golden ratio (1.618)³, a value of 4.2358, a number that could be 4 as in sides and 23.5°.
(1.618)³=4.2358.

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. (2) More likely it is maximum tilt 20° and 8° tilt for that year. 8÷1.55=5.1613 5.1613×1000=5161.3 5161.3-1985=3176.3 bc 8° equates as 3176 bc. (3) The only numbers used are 28 and 24, from ...
