We provide him with all the data, excavation data.
And you can imagine on a modern excavation, that is pretty accurate.
And then what he can do is he can reconstruct all

He can reconstruct where the sun would have come up and where it would have set 3000 BC.
It's not a million miles away from where it is now, but it is different.
And so if you want to know what it was like 3000 BC, you have to apply it to 3000 BC, not to 2026 AD.
