| “However, they have used Stonehenge to illustrate classical geocentric thinking. “ That should be a laugh , why didn’t they use something that is obviously related to classical geocentrism ? i.e. the Ptolemaic model , when Stonehenge clearly isn’t . “If the people of Stonehenge had developed a geocentric culture” There was nothing to develop , geocentrism was a given they would have no other option . “ However, the type of classical Geocentrism indicated at Stonehenge would have had a major flaw” Classical geocentrism involves describing the motions of the moon and planets , where are they described at Stonehenge ? There is a solstice alignment , that does not mean that the intention was to describe the motion of the sun . “One other monument, some distance away, has a design that proves it to be fundamentally wrong” Could you clarify or provide any evidence for that ? “This might be why it was eventually abandoned.” All prehistoric monuments were eventually “abandoned “ . There is no reason to believe it was due to cosmological discrepancies . Reply | with quote |  12th May 2014ce 20:12 In reply to: Re: geo tangent (jonmor) |
