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...

Ziggurat of Ur

Ziggurat of Ur 









The Great Ziggurat of Ur is located in modern-day Iraq.
The archaeological site of Ur also consists of the temples, Dublal Makh Temple and Nan Makh Temple, and the museums Ennigaldi-Nanna's Museum and Ur dos Caldeus.
The House of Prophet Abraham is located a short distance to the east.
It is thought that construction began in 2040 BC, and the structure was considered a ruin by the 6th century BC.


Coordinates
30.962817, 46.103300


Description
The Ziggurat's pathway and entrance are angled at 37° towards the northeast. It is shaped and styled in brick with either a damaged or unfinished upper level. The size is 64 metres by 45 metres, and the building has a height of 30 metres.


Analysis
If the floor area is divided by 36, a number of 80 is produced. If this is assumed to be 10 less than 90° as a negative, then considering it as an angle, 10° would equate to the year 4467 BC.
64 × 45 = 2880
2,880 ÷ 36 = 80

10 ÷ 1.55 = 6.4516
6.4516 × 1,000 = 6,451.6
6,451.6 - 1,985 = 4,467

If a volume is calculated, then a number equal to the seconds in a day is achieved.
2880 × 30 = 86400


The entrance is angled at 37° along with the building towards the northeast. The ratio of the building in metres to feet is 1/37. If the volume in metres is equal to seconds in a day, then multiplying by the angle 37° would equal 3,199,999.9 or 3.2 million cubic feet.

If the base is divided by the volume in feet, and the volume in feet is divided by the year 4467 BC, the following are produced. The two products are then divided, producing 1.55.

3,200,000 ÷ 4,467 = 716.36
3,200,000 ÷ 2,880 = 1,111.11
1,111.11 ÷ 716 = 1.55
3200000 ÷ 86400 = 37°

The 1.55 is the ratio of years per degree. (This was produced by its own ratio of volume in cubic feet divided by year and area). From this, it could then suggest that a given angle produces the year of build or a significant year. This angle could have been on the upper floor and is thus lost.

If dividing the volume by seconds in a day, as derived, then the number 37 is produced. This could then be the angle, which would then bring it back to itself. A possible full rotation as 20°.




Conclusion
Some numbers are missing so as to connect 20°. This could be because part of it has been destroyed.
The entrance is angled towards the northeast and so not towards sunrise.
It is possible it is connected to 4467 BC as people were known to have lived and traveled here, but it is also more probable, because of the use of bricks, as would have been used in the Early Middle Ages, that it is a newer structure.
The numbers 36 and 10 could connect as 360° with the 1.55 and (37-36=1) 1 as 1° of tilt.
1 x 1,000 = 1000
1985 - 1000 = 985 AD


This then could suggest this was the main building in the area in 985 AD. As it was damaged, so were other buildings which no longer stand. This then suggests it is connected to the Silk Road, a Chinese trading route during this time.

This, though, is of a different style of building to the tomb of Cyrus the Great, which might have been considered as being in the same region.
