Stonehenge Solved Its Three Observatories, Who built them, How and Why

There is supportive climatic evidence of the two-way journey of Earth's axis of spin, or more appositely, that of its plane of rotation. Much is known about the prevailing climate, from the examination by scientists of buried flora and fauna, and ice-cores in Greenland. Because our climate and its consequences, have varied so much since the Ice Age it has been divided into named periods, see Fig 22. Those of the time span we are concerned with are from the originating events at the Moon, to Earth's axis of spin returning to its customary location. They are called the Late Atlantic and Sub Boreal periods. But even within these, trying to match the detail of climate changes with the two-way journey of the axis of spin is difficult. But not withstanding this, some of the observations by climatologists seem to resonate with the findings of this research.

Furthermore, there are climatic features clearly relevant to some specific aspects, in the first instance concerning temperature. This was significantly higher than today, Fig 71. Together with rainfall, this resulted in excellent growing conditions as evidenced by the discovery in the fens of an oak having its first branches at a height of 27.5m (90 ft) (i). This fact contributes to the feasibility of the construction methods deduced for the Stone henge, Figs 43-47. Another example concerns the nature of winds around the date of c2100BC, when building of the Stone henge commenced. They are assessed by Professor HH Lamb to have been light, lending credence to the concept of Egyptians safely sailing the Atlantic coasts. It could be that subsequent, less benign sea conditions, may have contributed to their ultimate disinterest in the project.

The most telling and detailed evidence concerns rain and in this regard the most convenient place to start is Silbury Hill. Chapter 13 asserts this was a refuge in catastrophic floods and that the Egyptians contributed the design of its final phase of construction and supervised its implementation. There were five such floods, the first just prior to c2660BC, the last just prior to the arrival of the Egyptians on site c2100BC. Although the intervening dates are not known, the notional interval between each is 140 years. A sixth flood anticipated by construction of the sixth and last phase never came to pass.

Each flood prompted raising the height of the refuge and on each occasion this was by proportionately more than previously. The consequence is that when these heights are plotted on fixed intervals of 140 years, what is called an exponential curve of progression results. This is surprising and remarkable. The heights are in response to the depths of the floods and because these could not have been generated by mankind, nature must be the author. The original builders' choice of the refuge's site was prompted by a natural protrusion into the flood plain, from the foot of rising ground. This is incongruous and, like the whole edifice, can only be accounted for by instantaneous deluges so fierce as to be life threatening literally within seconds.

This is beyond our experience and consequently two questions arise: is there evidence of unusual deluges occurring, and what could have caused them? Confirmation that deluges occurred at such intervals is to be found from raised peat bogs in Denmark, their surroundings, shape and composition making them very sensitive to variations in climate, Fig 72,(ii). The cause is conjectured to have been the snatches in the outward solid iron and nickel core movement, proposed in chapter 21. These are seen to have had the following climatic effects. The weather of the British Isles is the consequence of the west to east trans-Atlantic warm jet stream, caused by the turn of Earth about its axis. It causes water vapour to be picked up from the ocean as it goes. Sudden jerks southward of Earth's axis of spin during its movement to St Petersburg, would arise from the snatches of the core. These would see the jet stream coming to us more and more from the north, and finally from the Arctic region. Each jerk would see air, colder than before, impacting warm, water vapour laden air, giving rise to instantaneous deluges. This is not to say there was no rain between the deluges, clearly there was, as evidenced by the fenland oak.

Because the core's return was smooth, the reverse journey of the axis would also have been smooth, with the consequence of a gradual, uneventful return to a more temperate climate.
