Amphitheatre Pompeii

Amphitheatre Pompeii The Amphitheatre of Pompeii is the oldest surviving Roman amphitheatre. It is situated in the ancient Roman city of Pompeii and was buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 ad. It is located to the east of the city and the edge of the eruption. It measures 135m long and 104m wide, the arena's pit is measured at 6m below ground level and was built in 70 bc. Coordinates 40.751827,14.494962 Measurements 135m x 104m (341ft x 443ft) 76.2m x 38.1m ( 250ft x 125ft) Angled at 60° towards northwest Area π×341×443= 474578 π×250×125= 98175 474578× 98175= 46591695150 46591695150÷223= 208931368 π×341×450= 482077 482077× 98175= 47327909475 47327909475÷223= 212232777 Roman Units The Roman cubit (cubitum) was 1½ Roman feet (17.48 inches) Five Roman feet made the pace (passus), 1.48 metres (58.23 inches). If considering a standardised unit, the Roman foot was probably used here, making the above whole units in 5's as if a passus. If applying again, the amph

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 angle and height. 


Continued 
The coordinates are seemingly unconnected but are roughly 7° latitude away from 60° and 6° from 10°. These two numbers are then part of the date, the 3 and 1 could equate as support stones or the tilt of the wedge which is 13°.
These numbers though, are in the wrong order, they are 1,3,7,6 and so could represent the year 1376.

Angle away
28×1×7×6=1176

Number from above plus latitude and longitude
11+53=64
76+4=80
6480÷2=3240

6480÷1176=5.51
8046÷3176=2.533
8046÷6480=1.24

The number 6480 is obtained by adding the coordinates to the number 1176.
The number 1176 divided by 6480 equates as 5.51 which could be 1.55, adjusting 6480 to 8046 and dividing by date gives 2.53.
This gives a suggestion that this number is near enough from dividing 6480 by 2 giving 3240, hence 2.53 represents latitude and half longitude, the cup marks add to this dating due to their use at that time and fading out later.
(a longitude marker was rarely used in 3100 bc).

The 60° and 10° could be popular numbers at the time with 60° as ⅙ of 360° and 10° as 1/36.
An interpretation of the following, 28×1×7×6=1176 could suggest '6' is 4 from 10, 4 divided by the angle 28° is '7', there is '1' angle 28° or 1×60 (1 hour) meaning in the hour at 28° and year of 76. If from above the two numbers are also paired then 60° would connect to the first two and 10° to the second two. This then could mean 32 (as 60-28=32) and 7 and 6, then the century 32 and year 76, a possible directional pointer to an event on land or in space which could be a planetary alignment.

The use of 1.55 shows that a date is represented in the monument, from earlier 8° represented 3176 bc but a confirmation is much longer to ascertain.
The cup marks on the stones might give the date quicker, a group on the wedge are in the shape of Cassiopia, the group on one of the support stone could suggest 3176 bc but the date would have to be known before. With this if date is the simplest to decide then the cup marks might tell the story in more detail.

Also to consider, is that tilt is roughly 23.5° currently, so it would be 31.5° in 3176 bc, the monument would be at 20°, the coordinates would be roughly 45° latitude and 4° longitude. There are eight 45° segments in 360° and 4 in 180°, there could be another marker to give a more precise measurement in the opposite direction.
Another possibility is that cup marks were never used on a monument to give a date and considering that the angle of segment is 51.5°, and 20° is also 0.05 of 360 and the Giza Pyramids were inverted so to fit on the plateau following the constellation of Orion, it is possible that it was built after the construction of the pyramids so as to give roots to some of the inhabitants.

It is notable that at 45° a line follows towards the Nile and Luxor, adjusting it slightly and the tomb of Petosiris could be considered a marker point. 
Petosiris lived in the second half of the 4th century bc, during the 28th Dynasty.
There are a number of monuments that suggests that they were altered or constructed so as to give credence to their roots.

If considering 28° and 24m only, then these two numbers can be put together as 2824, representing 2824 bc. 
It gives a number near to the root of the golden ratio. If the root of the golden ratio is used, a year of 2823.4 bc is achieved. 


2824+1985=4809
4809÷1000=4.809
4.809×1.55=7.4539
7.4539+20=27.4539
27.45395−28.725=1.27105


√(1.618)=1.27201
1.27201−28.725=27.4529
27.4529−20=7.4529
7.4529÷1.55=4.8084
4.8084×1,000=4808.4
4808.4−1985=2823.4


Conclusion
It is easier to conclude that a more likely construction date is the 25th century bc but it is also possible that they aligned to this monument from 3176 bc, as Petosiris had an equal meaning and was connected to the same date. 
The connection to the root of the golden ratio is also possible as it is quite simple in design using the root. This then suggests an earlier monument was used in 2824 bc but served no other purpose than to mark the year.
Or all three are correct as qualities of each calculation are connecting to the root of the golden ratio, from 2824. This also includes the coordinates, if multipled together and subtracted from 360 and divided by 100, the answer equals the root.

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?

Castlelack Stone Row 

Castlelack Stone Row  Castlelack Stone Row or Castlenalacht Standing Stones are located by Castlenalact, Co. Cork, Ireland (or Castlelack). There are four stones in a row with a further stone 246m further north, the four in a row increase in size towards the east. Coordinates 51.798189,-8.745239 Stones The stones are aligned at 30° towards the northeast, and the stones stand at heights of 3.4m, 2.7m, 1.9m, and 1.9m. There are two further stones, one between the shorter stones but thought not to be original, and the other is 246m north as measured from one of the 1.9m stones and aligns north/south. The row is at an altitude of 143m, and the other stone further north is at 133m. Assuming the stones are 1m wide, then they are 2.5m apart. Measuring from this north/south alignment, then one short stone and the 2.7m stone are 2.5m away and give an angle of 0.582°, an area of 307m² and 494m perimeter. The other 3.4m tall stone is at an angle of 1.397°, an area of 738m² and perimeter of 498m.
