The Universe, our Solar System AND GIZA simply follow basic geometrical laws
There is a lot to be said Don for keeping things simple, and as i mentioned earlier in this thread ancient cultures tended to use simplified symbolic numeric patterns. When it came to the Earth year periodic most never really got over the fact there weren't 360 days in the year, in Meso America the 5 awkward days being seen as ill omened.
It's that approach that suggests to me when it would have come to determining and using orbital periods of the planets, this would have been done in a simplified form best apapted to pattern, and i find it unlikey they would have encoded into monuments precise figures or ratios.
Here are the values i think they determined for the planets for symbolic usage;
Planet.....Degrees.....Actual orbit in days.....% accurate
Mercury.........90'................87.7.....................97.7%
Venus..........225'...............224.7.....................99.9%
Earth..........360'...............365.2.....................98.6%
Mars...........675'...............687.......................98.2%
Here's how that translates for symbolic usage, whether in terms of degrees or fractions;
Thus key fundaments of sacred geometry, four/eight directions, and is that a pyramid itself i see before me in plan view...one must beware of not seeing the wood for the trees with complex numerology.
All the four derived directions have a 1.5 and 2.5 relationship, one to the other, in terms of quadrants or fractions, simple ratios, yet used for example on the Ark of the Covenant.
