HI all.
Pictured below is the The Saqqara Ostracon plotted as accurately as I was able to. The horizontal distance is 140 digits (actually 700 pixels) and the height is 98 digits or 490 pixels. The vertical red lines are 28 digits apart or 140 pixels. This makes this rectangle 0.7 by 1 in a ratio
And a reminder again of what this thread is about:
It has been argued on this and other threads that there was no rhyme or reason in this enclosure's design but I hope to show that that is not true.
Firstly let me again post an image of mine which shows the simple ratios that appear to be found here:
Allow me to draw the oval enclosed by the rectangle:
You will note I hope that this oval is the same as that which is shown in red in the enclosure.
What I will do now is simply join the corners to create diagonals within this red oval like below:
The place where the diagonals cross the red oval define a perfect rectangle of 0.7 by 0.7 units as shown in blue
And the enclosure again:
We will now join the corners to the midway point on the opposite side. This will define where the tombs start. Observe the green circles:
If we draw a line from the center left to the top center middle it marks the end point of the tombs and if we take the top left corner of the square and draw a line to the bottom middle we define the points where the tombs end. Observe the green circles.
And interestingly the north branch in the pyramid seems to be on the line that defines 1 and 0.7 on the long side of the oval. Observe:
And a recap of where we are:
The pyramid diagonals seem to be defined by where the line from center to the corners meet the oval as shown below. Observe:
It would appear that the Ancient builders did indeed have a plan after all.
