Megaliths in Montana, USA
Note how the sun angles at the horizon level match the centers of the Giza pyramid baselines. Why I believe their orientation is solar based rather than constellation emulating.

Now with the sun added. To the left, the smallest pyramid lines up with shortest day at winter solstice. The middle pyramid lines up with the spring and fall equinoxes and the biggest pyramid on the right matches the longest day at summer solstice. Pyramid size may then be reflective of day length at these 4 important calendar dates related to sun positions.

I am not certain if the outer casing that has been stripped from the pyramids followed suit to the eight angles, but if it did, might they be like hour and minute counters for creeping or receding shadows caused as the sun swung around them each day, acting like sundials?

In the year 10,450 bce the constellation Orion sits at it's nadir point due to axial tilt and the procession cycle. The perfect opportunity to commence and/or end a long count and begin a new one. Note that during this time, the sun is rising in the House of Leo in the east. Hence why I believe the Sphinx was a lion originally that faces in that direction, though rather than being built in 10,450 bce which is when I believe the pyramids were built, the Sphinx would have been built one processional cycle earlier in 36,370 bce when the sky conditions were identical. |
Here showing where the constellation Orion is seen in the sky from Giza in the year 10,450 bce when it sits at the lowest point possible near the horizon at noon on the spring equinox. Note how the star Alcyone in the Pleiades is sitting exactly at 33°. A common number in Masonic practice and sacred geometry.

One half of a precessional cycle of 25,920 years later from the year 10,450 bce when Orion sits at nadir would be when Orion reaches it's zenith before beginning to descend again to it's nadir point. That would represent 12,960 years into the future from 10,450 bce. That will occur in 2510 ce, 492 years from now (2018). Note how much higher Orion is as seen from Giza above the horizon compared to 10,450 bce, as a result of the changing Earth axis.
|
In addition to Orion, the sun sits at a given height when seen from Giza during 10,450 bce with Orion at nadir. Check the altitude on the bottom left for the sun. 36°
We see those numbers in a 360° circle. 3+6 = 9 The Amber's Compass menhirs that are located offset by what appears to be 23.5° angle from it's east/west circle's circumference. If so, this would match an overlay of Earth's tilt, equator and Tropic of Cancer and Capricorn lines. Indicating a solar based purpose.
|
Now check the sun at high noon on the spring equinox due south when Orion is at it's zenith position in 2510 ce. Again, the altitude in the lower left. Sun is now at 60°.
Half of that is 30°. Half acting like an equator of sorts. Is that why Giza, Mesopotamia and Indus Valley were developed at the 30° latitude falling on the "ancient equator"? Is it based on the Sun's highest obtainable height in the sky from the "navel of the Earth" co-ordinate before the axial tilt begins to sway in the opposite direction? |

What I think the menhirs are referring to. Another option might be recording the nadir and zenith points of a given object (sun or constellation) from a singular axial swing due south.
