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...

Maeshowe Chambered Cairn

Maeshowe Chambered Cairn









The Maeshowe Chambered Cairn is located on Orkney, Scotland. It is considered Neolithic, dated to about 2800 BC. The name Maeshowe derives from the style of this build and is part of the Heart of Neolithic Orkney, which also includes Skara Brae.


Coordinates 

58.996788,-3.187857


Description 

Maeshowe Chambered Cairn is a stone construction, including the roof with a cover of earth. The Skara Brae building is different, with a part stone and part earth construction; it is known that this style of building had wooden supports.


Analysis 

Elsewhere on the island and not far away are the Standing Stones of Stenness, Lochview Standing Stones and the Ring of Brodgar. The angle of the build is at 50° towards the southwest. The width is approximately 285 feet by 300 feet (87 metres by 91 metres).


The area of an ellipse;

π × 87 × 91 = 24,872

24,872 - 25,772 = 900

This happens to be exactly 900, were a number 90 by 91 would be 42 sq metres away. The nearest numbers are 294 feet by 300 feet producing 25772.

As 50° is not a usual alignment angle, it can be considered as 45°. As a year, 45° is as follows:

5 ÷ 1.55 = 3.2258

3.2258 × 1000 = 3,225.8

3,225.8 − 1,985 = 1,240 BC



Conclusion

The number 25772 suggests a rotation of 20°, and this could also be considered a wave.

If assuming this is aligned to maximum tilt, it could suggest taking two measurements: one at maximum tilt (50°) and another at minimum tilt (70°). These two numbers give an answer between 30385 and 30670, which could suggest Earth's orbital speed. This is not accurate enough to give the average velocity.

Although it could also be assumed that the angle from 45° is a date of construction. If the 25772 suggests a maximum tilt of 5°, then this angle equates to 1240 BC. This would put it about 300 years after the Ring of Brodgar.

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,...
