Taking different measurements using astronomy to do so, using shadows at certain times of the day and year and then marking that at different latitudes and then you could work out the angles of the shadows and things like this. It was known they were doing that in ancient Egypt, this has been documented.
so it's highly likely they were doing that here and also if you look into like things like the book of Enoch you know this remarkable very weird book that used to be part of the whole kind of Old Testament it talks about him being taken by the watchers or the angels to different latitudes where there was very different weather and different environments and taking cords and going to measure

And this is going back into deep antiquity, the era they were talking about here. So it's even referenced in some of the old texts, some of the old sort of sacred texts. Who did they say was being taken? Enoch. Enoch, one of the biblical line of Noah, and all this kind of stuff. And so this is pretty strange.

I mean, that can't be proven, obviously, but the fact that the evidence is there with the measurements that are being found at these sites, so they must have had some understanding. Now, they could have guessed it, but that's highly unlikely. But what it seems is like there was some very advanced group of people, you know, possibly a large group of people,

who were travelers as well they weren't just located at gobekli tepe they were going to different places they were taking measurements for example stonehenge they found these post holes with giant pine totem pole type objects would be placed in they could have been up to 30 feet tall because they're like three feet wide several feet deep they're dated to 10 000 years old

And so this is weird, I mean, because Stonehenge wasn't built until 5,000 years after that, at least. So why were they marking the position of Stonehenge with these giant timber posts then, back in 10,000 years ago? It's quite weird. So I've got the impression, there we go, this is actually the post holes, what they would have looked like. Which image?

I think pretty much all the top ones there, and there's a reconstruction there as well. Oh, these circle things? Yeah, but they were originally, I mean, for a while, they were blobs of paint in the car park. That's all they were. Because they're gone. They're just remnants of bits of charcoal at the bottom of them and things like this. But these go back 10,000 years.

So these are really intriguing because these, it's almost like someone had gone out to different parts of the world and marked specific latitudes. for measurements. And the thing about Stonehenge, it's a very important latitude when you start, if you want to understand astronomy and surveying, because it's roughly 51 degrees, whereas Bekele Tepes, 38 degrees north.
