You might find my videos interesting which show how Sacred Geometry is used by a few well known architects. The 5 and 6 numbers combined that you have found relate to the minor fourth and major fifth when translated into Pythagorean tuning. The ancients were far more sophisticated than we are taught.

I get that these are geometrically and astronomically aligned as well as geographically aligned with other, similar sites but, unless I'm missing something, I don't see why they are being described as sacred. No mention was made of them being used in any sort of religious ceremony and Dr Hill speculated that they were used on possible market days to direct people to other sites. I'm kind of doubtful about that. The sites are not far apart. There's 5 or 6 miles between East Aquhorties and Loanhead of Daviot. It would be a familiar journey to anyone in the area. Happy to learn more.

Martin, The circle of 20 meters in diameter is located exactly, in relation to the north pole 90,000°, at 3,651.12 km. It is the expression, by chance (!), of the number of days in the Earth year, at 99.967%. A perfect circle, the earth (?) in meters, its number of days in its year........ You should find other circles in the surrounding area which represent the other planets, the moon, even the sun, in different proportions and measurements.......

Hi Martin, As usual, chance has once again created this megalithic site! ! ! If the measurement presented is correct, the diameter of 65.625 feet corresponds to 20.00 meters! ! ! A circle of 20.00 meters in diameter corresponds to (2 x Pi) x 100, in METERS, accuracy beyond 99.9875%. There should be a lot more to say but, perhaps too much... Good to you. Charles

Martin, In all megalithic sites, in the broad sense, we find all the universal and mathematical constants! ! ! The measurements are: the Egyptian cubit of 0.5236 meters (Pi/6), the cubit of the Nile, called the Nilometric cubit of 0.53934 meters, i.e. the Golden number Phi 1.618 divided by 3, the Phi cubit of 1.618 meters, but also the famous discovery cubit by Professor Thom, a Scot, lol, 2.0736 meters, as well as his yard of 0.82944 meters. I promise you that all of these measures are TOTALLY linked, and have been used for many, many millennia, all over the world. I know, it's unbelievable, but the truth. Charles @@BeforeCaledonia

The problem with that is that the English inch was not defined until about 700 years ago. Older definitions of the inch were different, and they is no evidence they were in use at all when the stone circle above was constructed.

@charlesmagne2847 9 ай бұрын
@@SonOfFurzehattThe so-called modern English measurements do not date back 700 years, but were simply recalibrated under Elizabeth I, it seems to me. Their origins have been lost and unknown for centuries, long before the new calibration of the units. A little clue relating to this very ancient origin: the perimeter of the great pyramid is equal to 1,760 Egyptian cubits of 0.5236 meters. 1.760 is the number of yards of 0.9144 meters to establish the length of the mile of 1,609.344 meters! ! One might wonder about the fact that Newton researched the Great Pyramid to accurately calculate the formula for gravity on Earth. We could thus better understand...

@@charlesmagne2847 "Recalibrated" - there's your problem. The inch has changed over the course of history. If we were measuring using the older Roman foot, the block would (probably) be 14 feet long, or 168 inches, in which case it's not especially close to 50×pi. And again, there's no evidence they were using that measuring system in the third millennium BCE.

I sincerely believe you're on to something . Brilliant research. This is an area I have been fascinated by for quite sometime. I did notice that when one does follow either one of the sunrise or sunset paths on solstice or equinox dates , they all seem to lead to somewhere of significance. From Newgrange , one can navigate their way the Giza and onwards to Mecca if they follow the sunrise on the December solstice. In ireland , with Dolmans, you can bet your bottom dollar the capstone will either face S/E (rising 21st December) , N/W(sunset 21st June) or S/W (setting sun 21st December) Are these monuments time keepers for Agriculture ? Like standing stones being a precursor or Obelisks ?

Very interesting presentation. The circles construction is in no way haphazard. My understanding though, is that a group of adepts left Egypt 11,000 years ago and walked to the British Isles (low sea level) in order to build these Henges. The objective being to instruct the hunter/gatherers of the day to settle in one place and grow crops

At 23:33 in the video: 'Of course we can't expect the people of the Neolithic to be astronomers or mathematicians'. It is exactly this assumption (dogma) that's stopping you from understanding, as you're ruling out the possibility (probability) that these people were trying to keep the ancient prehistoric (!) knowledge of astronomy and geometry (laid down in the system of time measure) alive. Delving deep into the numbers that make up this system you might discover how and why the ratios 5/6 or 6/5 were of utmost importance to these people. E.g. In terms of 'time' 144,000 seconds of orbit equals exactly 5/6 of 172,800 seconds (= 2 whole days). E.g. In terms of 'time and geometry' 360 seconds of orbit (1/10 of 1 hour, or 1/240 of 1 day, or 1/86,400 of 1 year) equals the duration of the Sacred Year (360 days) and the corresponding division of the circle into degrees (360). This gives us not just 2, but 3 different meanings (applications) of the number 360: seconds, days, and degrees. You may want to consider WHY the number of seconds/hour (3,600) or minutes/day (1,440) or hours/day (24) or seconds/day (86,400) were chosen and WHAT they were meant to represent. These questions I have dealt with in my previous comment.

@@BeforeCaledonia Yes, I did like it, especially because of the suggestion (which I had not considered at any time during my five-year research) that the total number of points on the circle (ranging from 2 to an infinite number) could also represent a specific number, ratio, or significant distance (in your examples 1/5 and 1/6 of the circumfernce. I will definitely give it some more thought.
