Our Stone Age ancestors discovered that the geometry of the Earth
provided a sacred connection between human experience and the
spiritual worlds. Exploring the numerical patterns of time and then
the size and shape of the Earth, they created an exact science of
measures and preserved their discoveries within sacred structures,
spiritualized landscapes, and mythologies, which interpreted the
religious ideas associated with their science. In this way, the
ancient measures of space and time reached our present age and
still embody the direct but forgotten truths of our sacred planet.
By recovering the megalithic secrets of space and time, carefully
preserved in megalithic stone structures, Richard Heath tells an
untold story of four megalithic ages. He identifies a first age of
astronomical discovery in the French sites around Carnac, where,
using only counted lengths and simple geometries, the ancients
created a sophisticated cosmic clockwork. A second age centered in
Britain, and including Stonehenge, successfully measured the Earth
and revealed a simple pattern held within the Earth's shape, using
metrological ratios. A third age, centered in Egypt and Greece, saw
a perfecting of the monumental arts, associated metrology, and
religious ideas, revealing the Earth and the heavens as the work of
a numerical genius. The fourth age saw pyramids and other
metrological buildings spread to the New World, at Teotihuacan in
Mexico, and also to the Far East. Examining Earth's harmonic
relevance to the Universe as a whole, Heath shows how we can
recognize the long-forgotten foundations of our own civilization
and revive the sacred teaching preserved by the four great
megalithic ages.
