134 OUR ANCESTORS CAME FROM OUTER SPACE<br />
from Stonehenge, yet archaeologists have long been asking if<br />
there was any direct relation between this old Celtic site in England<br />
and ancient Greece. This because the outHne of a Mycenaean<br />
dagger has been found engraved on a stone slab in<br />
Stonehenge. Now that we know that the Mycenaean stater has<br />
been derived from the Celtic foot of Stonehenge, which is much<br />
older than Mycenae, we may believe that perhaps it was the<br />
Celts who built Mycenae.<br />
In Tiahuanaco, Bolivia, i degree of longitude is about 107,000<br />
m. Divided by 360,000, this geodesic measure gives us a foot of<br />
0.2972 m, which, with the cubit of 0.4458 m, is the construction<br />
unit of the Temple of Kalasasaya in Tiahuanaco. The Tiahuanaco<br />
cubic foot weighs 26,260 gm, the exact weight of the gold<br />
talent in Greece, which was also used all over the Eastern Mediterranean<br />
region, divided into 60 minas of 437.66 gm each or into<br />
3,600 shekels of 7.29 gm each. But what is the connection between<br />
South America and the Mediterranean?<br />
A degree of longitude at the latitude of the caves of Cuenca,<br />
in Ecuador, is nearly 111,230 m. Divided by 320,000, this gives a<br />
foot of 0.3476 m and 1 cu ft equals 42,000 gm of water. This<br />
weight could have been the base for several coins of our ancestors,<br />
but it is certainly the foundation of the gold tola in India,<br />
weighing 11.66 gm and still in use today in the Persian Gulf,<br />
where the Arab oil sheiks are paid for their oil in gold tolas<br />
freshly minted just for them. The Cuenca foot in my opinion<br />
could also be the ancestor of the Hindu foot of 0.2759 ^ whose<br />
cubic foot weighs 21,000 gm. This mystery is even more intriguing<br />
when we see it in the light of recent discoveries that the<br />
Hindus navigated all the way around Africa, across the Atlantic<br />
Ocean, and up the Amazon River to bring home copper and tin<br />
from mines in Peru and Bolivia.<br />
No less surprising is the as-yet-unverified information from the<br />
Arabian Desert where very ancient pre-Islamic ruins have been<br />
found that seem to be built with a foot of 0.3037 m, a dimension<br />
that is new to us. Let's call it the foot of Baghdad. Some other<br />
sources recently indicate that a very old Arab map has been<br />
found, where the equator is divided not in the usual twenty-four<br />
or thirty-six parts but in forty-four equal arcs of 8.18 degrees<br />
each.
