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...

La Roche Longue in Quintin

La Roche Longue in Quintin













La Roche Longue in Quintin is located in Brittany, France, not far from Menhir des Côtes d'en Bas, which is toward the southwest.


Coordinates 
48.398200,-2.907586


Description 
The stone is 7 metres tall, with widths of 2.1 by 1.2 metres. The stone of the Menhir des Côtes d'en Bas is 2.5 metres tall. There is a leaf shape to the taller stone and a slight curve to the smaller stone.
The angle between the stones is 19°, and there is a distance of 430 feet between the two stones. The elevation of the site is 193 metres or 633 feet. 


Analysis 
When analysing the sites as if connected then the ratio between the stone heights is 2.8, and the ratio between their height, angle, and distance is 37.

7 × 131 = 917
2.5 × 131 = 327.5

2.5 × 19 × 430 = 20,425
7 × 251 × 430 = 755,510
755,510 ÷ 20,425 = 36.99

If we assume this was built around 4500 BC, then the angle of tilt would be 10.05°. This number divided by the ratio is equal to 3.58. For it to be equal to 3.6, the angle would be 10.08°. This would equate to the year 4518 BC. (This number could be 3.6 as ¹/¹⁰⁰ of 360°)

10.05175÷2.8=3.5899
3.6×2.8=10.08°

If the ratio above suggests the correct number/date ratio, then the year would equate to 4696 BC.
36.99 ÷ 10 = 3.6989
3.69894 × 2.8= 10.35705
10.35705 ÷ 1.55= 6.68196
6.68196 × 1000= 6681.96
6681.96 - 1985 = 4696.96



Conclusion 
It is possible the build date is 4696 BC. This area of France was occupied during this time, and the date would mark an important event. In the build they used a ratio of heights, angle, and distance, with the assumption of a connection to Gavrinis.
They also used both feet and metres, and this wasn't thought to be in use until 2700 BC. As such, this Neolithic marker may have had another stone added, but it also may have had other stones removed, which would have made its purpose clearer.
The angle from this location and the pyramids of Giza is between 36°-37°.

If there are other connections, such as the link to Giza and the use of feet and metres, it would more likely have been built around 2700 BC.
