Ancient Places of the Earth and its Connection
""Easter Island, the Egyptian pyramids, Peru’s Nazca lines, the temples of Angkor Wat… Imagine a curious cartographic lineation connecting several important sites of the ancient world. In fact, when key locations are charted on a globe, a nearly perfect circle emerges, suggesting a mystery as yet unresolved through archeological inquiry.
An astounding list of the planet’s culturally precious places can be found on this mysterious ring as it passes through small islands, several continents, and even proposed locations of mythical sites.
Cuts The Earth Perfectly In One Half!
In Africa, this line traverses the Sahara desert’s Tassili Plateau, the pyramids of Egypt, and over to key points along the Tigris, Euphrates, and Nile rivers—arguably three of some of the most influential courses of water in the ancient world. Trace this arc further and you’ll come to the ancient Persian capital of Persepolis, the ancient city of Mohenjo-Daro, the oracle of Ammon at the oasis of Siwa, and the lost city of Petra—one of the seven new Wonders of the Ancient World.
Further along this path you’ll find the ancient Sumerian city of Ur, the temples of Angkor in Cambodia and Thailand, the Dead Sea, the Himalayas, the Qiangtang River in China, and the remains that some catalog as the mythical Atlantis. Astoundingly, this mysterious line connects these sites within a margin of error of less than one tenth of one degree of latitude, with the center of this circle found in southeastern Alaska.
In his article “The Prehistoric Alignment of World Wonders,” Jim Alison describes in great detail the many mathematical permutations found within this great circle and its connecting sites. He writes: “The alignment of these sites is easily observable on a globe of the earth with a horizon ring. Aligning any two of these sites on the horizon ring will align all of these sites on the ring. 3-D world atlas software programs will also draw this great circle around the earth.”""
Geometry / Geography of Ancient Sites
The chart below lists the distance of each site from the great circle and the distance of each site from the northern axis point. There are slight variations in the distance from the axis point to the great circle depending on whether the route from the axis point to different locations along the great circle crosses over the equator or polar regions. The mean distance from the axis point to the great circle is 6,218 miles.

| Giza | 29° 59' N | 31° 09' E | 0 miles | 6.219 miles |
| Siwa | 29° 14' N | 25° 31' E | 10 miles | 6,231 miles |

| Machupicchu | 13° 06' S | 72° 35' W | 15 miles | 6,206 miles |
| Nazca | 14° 42' S | 75° 06' W | 0 miles | 6,221 miles |
| Easter Island | 27° 06' S | 109° 20' W | 0 miles | 6,221 miles |

| Pyay | 19° 15' N | 95° 05' E | 5 miles | 6,213 miles |
| Khajuraho | 24° 51' N | 79° 56' E | 12 miles | 6,206 miles |
| Mohenjo Daro | 27° 15' N | 68° 17' E | 20 miles | 6,243 miles |
| Persepolis | 29° 56' N | 52° 55' E | 5 miles | 6,215 miles |
| Ur | 30° 57' N | 46° 07' E | 40 miles | 6,173 miles |
| Petra | 30° 19' N | 35° 28' E | 6 miles | 6,213 miles |
The sites listed above are shown clockwise from Giza on the equal azimuthal projection below. The projection is centered on the axis point in southeastern Alaska. Distances to any location from the center of an equal azimuthal projection are equally scaled. Since all of the sites on the great circle alignment are equally distant from the axis point at one quarter of the circumference of the earth, the alignment forms a perfect circle halfway between the center and the outer edge of the projection.
