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...

Pyramids - Khufu's 

Pyramids - Khufu's















It has been shown that the ancient Egyptians in 2589 BC understood Earth's rotation at the equator. For this to be accurate, they would have had to ascertain the correct circumference along with a time measurement.
Although it is normal today to use seconds, did the ancient Egyptians use them?
Is it possible that the pyramids' height and base connect to the circumference?

 

Khufu's possible height in metres/cubits: 146/279.16

Base perimeter in cubits/per side: 921.2/230.3

Circumference at equator in kilometres: 40075






Elliptic ratio
The following shows that if they wanted to use 43,200 (12 hours), they could connect it to their elliptic ratio, but the circumference would still have to be increased, here using the pyramid's height (for each version) rather than the base perimeter. (Height variations are from measured and predicted.)

(Height + circumference) ÷ 12 hours = ratio

138.8m
138.8 + 40,075 = 40,213.8
40,213.8 ÷ 43,200 = 0.930875
Convert to meters
0.930875 × 1000 = 930.875m

143.5m
40,218.5112 ÷ 43,200 = 0.9309
0.9309 × 1000 = 930.98m

146.4m
40,221.4 ÷ 43,200 = 0.93105
0.93105 × 1000 = 931.05m

The measurements have shown that the shafts in the pyramid connect with the shorter height, but all heights link with the elliptic radius (in metres and distance to Khafre's pyramid) to within 17.5 cm, using (circumference + height) ÷ 12 hours (43,200 seconds) × 1000.

The difference in circumference needed for these numbers was due to converting height in meters directly to kilometers.

Example:
146.4 m = 146.4 km
146.4 km + 40,075 km = 40,221.4 km



Circumference
If considering the rotation in kilometers as 0.4651 and a sidereal day as 3 minutes and 56 seconds short of a number day, then the following would apply:

0.4651 × (86400 - 235.5) = 40075

The reduction shows that 86400 seconds doesn't represent a day, but rather 86164.5 seconds.

A 40075 km circumference + (235.5 seconds × 0.4651) = 40184.64 km

This, though, gives a number 0.8 short of the elliptic ratio and an added height of only 109.64 m. This 0.8 number, as a 0.8 ratio, could have been included in Menkaure's pyramid ratio as base divided by height as a sign of incorporating an error into another pyramid. The number 109.64 is another error. 146.4−109.64=36.76 represents a difference of 25.1% of the overall height, which might have equated to the Queen's chamber positioning, off the base of the pyramid.


Base Perimeter ×%
Khufu's pyramid perimeter could also be used along with the ratio of the circumference divided by 922.704 km, giving 1/43.432. Multiplying by 1000 increases it to 43432 and using this number instead of 43200.
Multiplying by the perimeter gives a number close to the polar circumference, and adding 360 as one rotation gives a ratio of 931.

40075 ÷ 922.704 = 43.432
43.432 × 1000 = 43432
921.2 × 43432 = 40009.56
(40075 + 360) ÷ 43432 = 931


This could be the polar circumference, but the number is 2.56 km off. This error could connect to Khufu's pyramid entrance. This faces north, and along with the small golden ratio from which the number 922.704 km is derived.
The difference in perimeter subtracted from the baseline gives 1.504 km. Dividing by 1000 equals 1 meter + 1 cubit - 1.912 cm.
This 0.504 number also connects Menkaure's pyramid slope with the other slopes and the cubit (0.504 + 0.01912 = 0.523).




Conclusion
It has been shown that a height of 146.4 meters produces an elliptic ratio of 931 plus a separation of 0.5. This is 279.92 cubits.
It has also been shown that the seconds in a sidereal day multiplied by the angular rotation equals the circumference.
The circumference is connected to the elliptic ratio but is 0.8 short. This error might have been included elsewhere with other numbers suggesting the Queen's Chamber.

If considering the base perimeter percentage, then the circumference plus 360° divided by that number gives the ratio.

Although at the equator, the circumference is 40,075 km, at 29.97° longitude it is 34,707 km. It is possible to achieve the same ratio.
40,075 × cos(30) = 34,705.968 km
The equatorial rotation is 0.4651 km/s. If the value is multiplied by two,
0.4651 × 2 = 0.9302 km/2 seconds
(0.9302 × 43,200 = 40,184.64)

If using the circumference plus the height and then dividing by ½ the seconds in a day, then the ratio and separation are achieved.

(40075 + 146.4) ÷ (43200) = 931.05
Or
(40075 + 280) ÷ (43200 + (235.5 ÷ 1.618)) × 1000 = 931

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,...
