expressed Page 275 "Let us not forget that they occur in a myth which is present at the very dawn of writing in Egypt (indeed elements of the Osiris story are to be found in the Pyramid Texts dating back to around 2450 BC, in a context which suggests that they were exceedingly old then). Hipparchus, the so-called discoverer of precession lived in the second century BC. He proposed a value of 45 or 46 seconds of arc for one year of precessional motion. These figures yield a one-degree shift along the ecliptic in 80 years (at 45 arc seconds per annum). The true figure, as calculated by twentieth century science, is 71.6 years. If Sellers's theory is correct, therefore, the 'Osiris numbers', which give a value of 72 years, are significantly more accurate than those of Hipparchus . Indeed, within the obvious confines imposed by narrative structure, it is difficult to see how the number 72 could have been improved upon, even if the more precise figure had been known to the ancient myth-makers. One can hardly insert 71.6 conspirators into a story, but 72 will fit comfortably."
The
scribe, expressing reservations, about all the changes
that AlizZed was making, gained a measure Fingerprints of the Gods Page 275 "Working
from this rounded-up figure, the
Osiris
myth is capable of yielding a value of
2160
years
for a precessional shift through one complete house of the
zodiac. The correct figure, according to today's
calculations, is 2148 years.The Hipparchus figures are 2400
years and 2347.8 years respectively. Finally,
Osiris
enables us to calculate 25,920
as the number of years required for the Page 276 "Hipparchus
gives us either 28,800
or 28,173.6 years. The correct figure, by today's
estimates, is 25,776
years.
The Hipparchus calculations for the Great Return are
therefore around 3000 years out of kilter. The
Osiris
calculations miss the true figure by only
144
years, and may well do so because the narrative context
forced a rounding-up of the base number from the correct
value of 71.6 to a more "All
this however, assumes that Sellers
is right to
suppose
that
the numbers 360, 72, 30 and

were placed there deliberately

does it seem that Seller's 'code' is confined to
mythology. In the jungles of
Kampuchea
the temple complex of Angkor
looks
as though it could have been purpose-built as a precessional
metaphor. It has, for example, five gates to each of
which leads a road bridging the crocodile-infested moat that
surrounds the whole site. Each of these roads is
bordered by a row of gigantic stone figures,
108
per avenue, 54
on
each side (540
statues in all) and each row carries a huge Naga
serpent. Furthermore, as Santillana and von Dechend
point out in Hamlet's Mill, the figures do not 'carry' the
serpent but are shown to 'pull' it, which indicates that
these 540
statues are 'churning the Milky Ocean'. The whole of
Angkor
'thus turns out to be a colossal model set up with true
Hindu fantasy and incongrousness' to express the idea
of "The
same may be true of Java's
famous temple of Borobudur,
with its 72
bell-shaped stupas, and perhaps also of the megaliths of
Baalbeck
in the Lebanon
- which are thought to be the world's biggest blocks of cut
stone. Long predating Roman and Greek structures on
the site, the three that make up the so-called
'Trilithion'
are as tall as five-storey buildings and weigh over 600 tons
each. A fourth megalith is almost 80 feet in length
and weighs 1100 tons. Amazingly these giant blocks
were cut, perfectly-shaped and somehow transported to
Baalbeck
from a quarry several miles away. In addition they
were skilfully incorporated, at a considerable height above
ground level into the retaining walls of a magnificent
temple. This temple was surrounded by
54
columns of immense size and height. Page 277/9. In
the subcontinent of India (where the Orion constellation is
known as Kal-Purush,
meaning Time-Man), we find that Sellers's Osiris numbers are
transmitted through a wide range of media in ways
increasingly difficult to ascribe to chance. There
are, for instance, 10,800
bricks in the Agnicayana,
the Indian fire alter. There are
10,800
stanzas in the Rigveda,
the most ancient of the Vedic
texts and a rich repository of Indian mythology. Each
stanza is made up of 40 syllables with the result that the
entire composition consists of 432,000
syllables...no more, and no less. And in
Rigveda
I:164 (a typical stanza) we read of 'the
12-spoked
wheel in which 720
sons of Agni
are
established.' Vedic

the Hebrew Cabala
there are 72
angels through whom the Sephiroth
(divine powers) may be approached, or invoked, by those who
know their names and numbers.
Rosicrucian
tradition speaks of cycles of 108
years
(72
plus 36)
according to which the secret brotherhood makes its
influence felt. Similarly the number
72
and its permutations and subdivisions are of great
significance to the Chinese secret societies known as
Triads. An ancient ritual requires that each candidate
for initiation pay a fee including
'360

for "making clothes", 108
cash "for the purse", 72
cash
for instruction, and 36
cash for decapitating the "traiterous
