"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

 
Page 273

"These he joined to the 360 days of which the year then consisted (emphasis added)."

"Elsewhere the myth informs us that the 360 - day year consists of "12 months of 30 days each".
Note 6
And in general,as Sellers observes , "phrases are used which prompt simple mental calculations and
an attention to numbers ". note 7
"Elsewhere the myth informs us that the 360-day year consists of '12 months of 30 days each'.

Thus far we have been provided with three of Seller's precessional: 360, 12 and 30. The fourth number,which occurs later in the text, is by far the most important. As we saw in Chapter Nine, the evil deity known as Set led a group of conspirators in a plot to kill Osiris. The number of these conspirators was 72."

/ Page 274 /

With this last number in hand, suggests Sellers, we are now in a position to boot-up and set running an ancient computer programme:

"12 = the number of constellations is the zodiac;"


30 = the number of degrees allocated along the ecliptic to each zodiacal constellation;"


72 = the number of years required for the equinoctial sun to complete a precessional shift of one degree
along

        with the ecliptic;"
360 = the total number of degrees in the ecliptic"

72 x 30 = 2160 (the number of years required for the sun to complete a passage of 30 degrees along
          the ecliptic, i.e., to pass entirely through any one of the 12 zodiacal constellations);"

"2160 x 12 (or 360 x 72) = 25,920 (the number of years in one complete precessional cycle or 'Great Year', and
thus the total number of years required to bring about the 'Great Return)."

Add to reduce sez ZedAliz
72 becomes 9 and 30 becomes 3 and 2160 becomes 9

The mystery of the dog that didn't bark said Zed Aliz

 

The Fingerprints Of The Gods
Graham Hancock

Page 281

" We came here by way of Sirius, the Dog Star, who stands at the heel of the giant constellation of Orion where it towers in the sky above Egypt. In that land, as we have seen, Orion is Osiris, the god of death and resurrection, whose numbers - perhaps by chance - are 12, 30, 72, and 360. But can chance account for the fact
that these and other prime integers of precession keep cropping up in supposedly unrelated mythologies from all over the world, and in such stolid but enduring vehicles as calendar systems and works of architecture?
Santillana and von Dechend, Jane Sellers and a growing body of other scholars rule out chance, arguing that the persistence of detail is indicative of a guiding hand.
If they are wrong, we need to find some other explanation for how such specific and inter-related numbers
(the only obvious function of which is to calculate precession could by accident have got themselves so widely imprinted on human culture.
But suppose they are not wrong ? Suppose that a guiding hand really was at work behind the scenes ?
Sometimes, when you slip into Santillana's and von Dechend's world of myth and mystery, you can almost feel the influence of that hand. . ...."
"...Along the way, according to the design of the ancient sages (if Sellers, Santillana and von Dechend are right)
we were first encouraged to build a clear mental picture of the celestial sphere. Second, we were provided with a mechanistic model so that we could visualize the great changes precession of the equinoxes periodically effects in all the coordinates of the sphere. Finally, after

/ Page 282 /

allowing the dog Sirius to open the way for us, we were given the figures to
calculate precession more or less exactly..."
"...Investigating this kind of material, one sometimes has the spooky sense of being manipulated by an ancient intelligence which has found a way to reach out to us across vast epochs of time, and for some reason has set us a puzzle to solve in the language of myth...."

Page 283

"...So once again it seems reasonable to ask: what is going on? Why do we have these 'strings' of myths, ostensibly about different subjects, all of which prove capable in their own ways of shedding light on the phenomenon of precession of the equinoxes ?..." "...It surely drives scepticism beyond its limits to suggest that so many identical literary devices could keep on turning up purely by chance in so many different contexts.
If not by chance, however, then who exactly was responsible for creating this intricate and clever connecting pattern? who were the authors and designers of the puzzle and what motives might they have had ?
 
Scientists with something to say
 
Whoever it was, they must have been smart - smart enough to have observed the infinitesimal creep of precessional motion along the ecliptic and to have calculated its rate at a value uncannily close to that obtained by today's advanced technology.
It therefore follows that we are talking about highly civilized people. Indeed, we are talking about people who deserve to be called scientists. They must, moreover, have lived in extremely remote antiquity because we can be certain that the creation and dissemina-tion of the common heritage of precessional myths on both sides of the Atlantic did not take place in historic times. On the contrary the evidence suggests that all these myths were 'tottering with age' when what we call history began about 5000 years ago. 41
The great strength of the Ancient stories was this: as well as being

/ Page 284 /

for ever available for use and adaptation free of copyright, like intellectual chameleons, subtle and ambiguous, they had the capacity to change their colour according to their surroundings. At different times, in different continents, the ancient tales could be retold in a variety of ways, but would always retain their essential symbolism and always continue to transmit the coded precessional data they had been programmed with at the outset.
But to what end ?
As we see in the next chapter, the long slow cycles of precession are not limited in their consequences to a changing view of the sky. This celestial phenomenon, born of the earth's axial wobble, has direct effects on the earth itself. In fact, it appears to be one of the principle correlates of the sudden onset of ice ages and their equally sudden and catastrophic decay.

/ Page 285 /

Chapter 32
Speaking to the Unborn

It is understandable that a huge range of myths from all over the ancient world should describe geological catastrophes in graphic detail..."
"...Much harder to explain is the peculiar but distinctive way the myths of cataclysm seem to bear the intelligent imprint of a guiding hand.1 Indeed the degree of convergence between such ancient stories is frequently remarkable enough to raise the suspicion that they must all have been 'written' by the same 'author'.

A message in the bottle of time

Starts 18th line up and covers 7 lines.
Quote "
"Of all the other stupendous inventions,' Galileo once remarked,


What sublimity of mind must have been his who conceived how to communicate his most secret thoughts to any other person, though very distant either in time or place, speaking with those who are in the Indies, speaking to those who are not yet born, nor shall be this thousand or ten thousand years? And with no greater difficulty than the various arrangements of two dozen little signs on paper? Let this be the seal of all the admirable inventions of men.3
 
If the precessional message' identified by scholars like Santillana, von Dechend and Jane Sellers is indeed a deliberate attempt at communi-cation by some lost civilization of antiquity, how come it wan't just written down and left for us to find? Wouldn't that have been easier than encoding it in myths? Perhaps.
Nevertheless, suppose that whatever the message was written on got destroyed or worn away after many thousand of years? Or suppose that the language in which it was inscribed was later forgotten utterly (like the enigmatic Indus Valley script, which has been studied closely for more than half a century but has so far resisted all attempts at decoding)? It must be obvious that in such circumstances a written

/ Page 287 /

legacy to the future would be of no value at all, because nobody would be able to make sense of it.
What one would look for, therefore, would be a universal language, the kind of language that would be comprehensible to any technologi-cally advanced society in any epoch, even a thousand or ten thousand years into the future. Such languages are few and far between, but mathematics is one of them - and the city of Teotihuacan may be the calling card of a lost civilization written in the eternal language of mathematics.
Geodetic data related to the exact positioning of fixed geographical points and to the shape and size of the earth, would also remain valid and recognizable for tens of thousands of years, and might be most conveniently expressed by means of cartography (or in the construc-tion of giant geodetic monuments like the Great Pyramid of Egypt as we shall see).
Another 'constant' in our solar system is the language of time caliberated by the inch worm creep of precessional motion. Now or ten thousand years in the future, a message that prints out numbers like 72 or 2160 or 4320 or 25,920 should be instantly intelligible to any civilization that has evolved a modest talent for mathematics and the ability to detect and measure the almost imperceptible reverse wobble that the sun appears to make along the ecliptic against the background of the fixed stars (one degree in 71.6 years, 30 degrees in 2148 years, and so on).
The sense that a correlation exists is strengthened by something else. It is neither as firm nor as definite as the number of syllables in the Rigveda; nevertheless, it feels relevant. Through powerful stylistic links and shared symbolism,, myths to do with global cataclysms and with precession of the equinoxes quite frequently intermesh. A detailed interconnectedness exists between these two categories of tradition, both of which additionally bear what appear to be the recognizable fingerprints of a conscious design. Quite naturally, therefore, one is prompted to discover whether there might not be an important connection between precession of the equinoxes and global catastrophes.

/ Page 288 /

Mill of pain

" Although several different mechanisms of an astronomical and geological nature seem to be involved, and although not all these are fully understood, the fact is that the cycle of precession does correlate very bly with the onset and demise of ice ages.
Several trigger factors must coincide, which is why not every shift from one astronomical age to another is implicated. Nevertheless, it is accepted that precession does have an impact on both glaciation and deglaciation at widely separated intervals. The knowledge that it does so has only been established by our own science since the late 1970's.4 Yet the evidence of the myths suggests that the same level of knowledge might have been possessed by an as yet unidentified civilization in the depths of the last Ice Age. The clear suggestion we may be meant to grasp is that the terrible cataclysms of flood and fire and ice which the myths describe were in some way causally connected to the ponderous movements of the celestial coordinates through the great cycle of the zodiac. In the words of Santillana and von Deshend, 'It was not a foreign idea to the ancients that the mills of the gods grind slowly and that the result is
usually pain.'5
Three principal factors, all of which we have met before, are known to be deeply implicated in the onset and the retreat of ice ages (together, of course, with the divine cataclysms that ensue from sudden freezes and thaws). These factors all have to do with variations in the earth's orbital geometry...."

Page 289

"...Levered by the changing geometry of the orbit, 'global insolation' - the differing amounts and intensity of sunlight received at various latitudes in any given epoch - can thus be an important trigger factor for ice ages.
Is it possible that the ancient myth-makers were trying to warn us of great danger when they so intricately linked the pain of global cataclysm to the slow grinding of the mill of heaven?
This is a question we will return to in due course, but meanwhile it is enough to observe that by identifying the significant effects of orbital geometry on the planet's climate and wellbeing, and by combining this information with precise movements, the unknown scientists of an unrecognised civilization seem to have found a way to catch our attention, to bridge the chasm of the ages, and to communicate with us directly.
Whether or not we listen to what they have to say is, of course entirely up to us."

Nature's Numbers
Ian Stewart 1995

Page 1

Chapter 1

The Natural Order

We live in a universe of patterns.

Every night the stars move in circles across the sky. The seasons cycle at yearly intervals. No two snowflakes are ever exactly the same, but they all have sixfold symmetry. Tigers and Zebras are covered in patterns of stripes, leopards and hyenas are covered in patterns of spots. Intricate trains of waves march across the oceans; very similar trains of sand dunes march across the desert. Coloured arcs of light adorn the sky in the form of rainbows, and a bright circular halo some-times surrounds the moon on winter nights. Spherical drops of water fall from clouds.
Human mind and culture have developed a formal system of thought for recognizing, classifying, and exploiting pat-terns. We call it mathematics. By using mathematics to orga-nize and systematize our ideas about patterns, we have discovered a great secret: nature's patterns are not just there to be admired. they are vital clues to the rules that govern natural processes."
There is much beauty in Nature's clues, and we can all recognize it without any mathematical training. There is beauty, too, in the mathematical stories that starts from the clues and deduce the underlying rules and regularities, but it is a different kind of beauty applying to ideas rather than things"

Page 3

"...Patterns possess utility as well as beauty. Once we have learned to recognize a background pattern. exceptions sud-denly stand out..."
Against the circling background of stars, a small number of stars that move quite differently beg to be singled out for spe-cial attention. The Greeks called them planetes, meaning "wanderer," a term retained in our word "planet." It took a lot longer to understand the patterns of planetary motion than it did to work out why stars seem to move in nightly circles. One difficulty is that we are inside the Solar System, moving along with it, and things that look simple from the outside often look more complicated from inside. The planets were clues to the rules behind gravity and motion.
We are still learning to recognize new kinds of pattern.
Only within the last thirty years has humanity become explic-itly aware of the two types of pattern now known as fractals and chaos. Fractals are geometric shapes that repeat their structure on ever-finer scales, and I will say a little about them towards the end of this chapter; chaos is a kind of appar-ent randomness whose origins are entirely deterministic..."
"...Nature "knew about" these patterns billions of years ago, for clouds are fractal and weather is chaotic. It took humanity a while to catch up.
The simplest mathematical objects are numbers, and the simplest of nature's patterns are numerical. The phases of the moon make a complete cycle from new moon to full moon and back again every twenty-eight days. The year is three hundred and sixty-five days long -roughly. People have two

/ Page 4 /

legs, cats have four, insects have four, insects have six, and spiders have eight. Starfish have five arms (or ten, eleven even seventeen, depending on the species). Clover normally has three leaves: the superstition that a four-leaf clover is lucky reflects a deep-seated belief that exceptions to patterns are special. Avery curious pattern occurs in the petals of flowers. In nearly all flowers, the number of petals is one of the numbers that occur in the strange sequence 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89. For instance, lilies have three petals, buttercups have five, many delphiniums have eight, marigolds have thirteen, asters have twenty-one, and most daisies have thirty-four, fifty-five, or eighty-nine. You don't find any other numbers anything like as often . There is a definite pattern to these numbers, but one that takes a little digging out: each number is is obtained by adding the previous two numbers together. For example, 3 + 5 = 8, 5 + 8 = 13, and so on. The same numbers can be found in the spiral of seeds in the head of a sunflower. This par-ticular pattern was noticed many centuries ago and has been widely studied ever since, but a really satisfactory explana-tion was not given until 1993. It is to be found in 9.
