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...

Amphitheater Pozzuoli 

Amphitheater Pozzuoli

The Flavian Amphitheatre is situated in Pozzuoli, Italy, built in 80 ad and is the third-largest Roman amphitheatre. It is located about 13kms west of Naples and 500m from the coast. The site was chosen at the nearby crossing of roads from Naples, Capua, and Cumae.


Coordinates  
40.825718,14.125678 


The amphitheatre is angled at 37° towards the northwest, and two measurements like from the Colosseum are 147m by 117m (482 by 384ft), with the arena floor measuring 72.22m by 42.33m (237 by 139ft)
The ratio of the building to the floor is 1.36. The angle, when built, would have been 2.953° less at 34.05°.


Area
π×117×147=54032.25m²
π×72.22×42.33=9604.08m²

54032.25×9604.08=518930051.58
518930051.58÷223=2327040

If considering that the measurements of the arena floor added then multiplied by two and subtracted from one side of Khufu’s pyramid, a number of 1.36 is achieved.
72.22+42.33=114.55
(114.55×2)−230.46=1.36

If considering for height, then using cubit for the height, which is known as 280 or 146.46m and applying the same ratio.
147+117=264
264-280=16
Subtracting so as to equal 13.6 difference and then subtracting from the accepted height, a number of the root of the golden ratio is achieved.
264-277.6=13.6
277.6×0.523=145.1848
145.1848−146.46=1.275
1.275÷0.523=2.43


Conclusion 
It can be considered as using metres for measurements when converting to cubits.
This also involves subtracting 2.4 from the number, but this could be the error, which is known as 24.3m.
When using different heights then different numbers are achieved. Considering that the numbers 2.4, root of the golden ratio, and 146.46m are numbers from Khufu’s pyramid, then these numbers could be correct.
The splitting of the amphitheatre as two segments allows for the 2nd calculation.
The two areas multiplied could equate to the number of stones in Khufu’s pyramid at 2.4 million, when using the number 223 from Saros.
By 80 ad, it was 111 years after victory over Egypt, but the Romans still occupied Egypt, and the use of Egyptian pyramid measurements could be considered as still in use. With this then the overall volume was the main theme, and it was produced from two volumes, which allowed lunar month to be included. The 1.275 number could be the golden ratio, but it could also be a ratio 114.55×1.275=146.05. 
This then goes to support an Egyptian pyramid theme in the build.

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...

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,...
