I'm going to give you, here, my revised "archaeo-sky matrix" figures for the 'centered' location of "Noah's Ark" .. which I call 'The Ark of Ziusudra'. These revised figures are based *directly* on Michael Bonilla's reported figures (see below) from his very recent on-site presence atop the large 'intrusive boulder' that is lodged/embedded in the western side of the remains of the ship. He was there, on site at the remains, in October of 2000. And his figures (below, at the end of this article) are the readings from the GPS unit he used. REVISED "ARCHAEO-SKY MATRIX" LOCATION AT 'AMIDSHIPS CENTERLINE' OF THE REMAINS OF "NOAH'S ARK" (ARK OF ZIUSUDRA) Reference is made, here, to Page 291 of the book, "The Ark of Noah", by David Fasold, published in paperback by Knightsbridge Publishing Company, NY, New York, USA, in 1990. ISBN 1-56129-006-8 . On page 291 in that book, there is a drawing/diagram by David Fasold that was part of his preliminary survey, directly from Fasold's own on-site very detailed inspection of the remains of the vessel in June of 1985. He prepared a 23-page version of his preliminary survey, in the Turkish language, in late 1985, for the concerned ministries of The Republic of Turkey. I received the (below) email from Michael Bonilla, just after he returned from his trip to this site. He was (as I mentioned above) at the site in October, 2000, and he took GPS readings from atop the large 'intrusive boulder' .. (reported by Fasold) .. embedded/lodged in the western side of the remains of the ship. By looking at the drawing/diagram in Fasold's book on page 291 (referenced above), I have determined that the "Grid POINT" I have figured-out .. as the *most likely and intended* final resting place of 'The Ark of Ziusudra' .. is indeed at-or-very-near the 'centerline', amidships, between 'Bulkhead # 5' and 'Bulkhead # 6' as described by David Fasold in his book. As to "how" the ship was apparently *intentionally* guided to this particular spot ... my conjecture is given below, after my figures for this exact =0 location, which I now present, based directly on Michael Bonilla's reported GPS reading. First, I will give my figures for "The Rock" itself .. the pointed 'intrusive boulder' embedded/lodged in the western side of the ship's remains. Remember .. Bonilla took his readings from atop this boulder : THE LIMESTONE BOULDER Grid LAT 39 (deg) X 26 (min) X 26.03550296 (sec) North .. = 26400 North. { Note: decimal harmonic of exactly HALF "5280" .. the number of feet in a statute mile }. Grid LONG 13 (deg) X 06 (min) X 4.512820513 (sec) E.Giza .. = 352 E.Giza. { Note: resonant with the major gematrian number "3168", as follows ... (352 X 9) = 3168 }. [ E.Greenwich 44 deg 14 min 5.312820513 sec ]. Grid POINT Value (26400 / 352) = 75. { Note: resonant with polar circumference of Earth .. 21,600 / 75 = 288 ; the number "288" carries a gematrian association with "double light". Polar circumference of Earth is 21,600 nautical miles }. Further note: using the number "9" .. our highest integer .. 75 / 9 = 8.333333333 ... this is a decimal harmonic of "83.33333333" .. the ratio of the 'rates' of Earth precessional angular movement to Earth obliquity angular movement. This refers to a main Earth obliquity cycle of 40,000 years full-cycle at an angular movement per year of 0.6 arc-seconds. The Earth precession referenced is 50 arc-seconds angular movement per year. Thus .. (50 / 0.6) = 83.33333333 .. In a recent email to many people and to several email lists, I showed that this ratio of "83.33333333 .." is also the ratio of the Grid POINT Values for the *centered* locations of 'The Face' at Cydonia on Mars and of The White House in Washington, D.C. .. 656.56127 / 7.878735239 = 83.33333333 .. and I also mentioned in that email, the work of Daniel Perez, and his article on The Internet; "Washington, District of Cydonia", in which he displays *an obviously direct, positional correlation* of 'The Face' at Cydonia on Mars to The White House in Washington, D.C. { http://www.terminator3armageddon.com/conspira/dcmars.html }. Please also go to these 2 webpages (following), to see the details and calculations for my "Washington, D.C. archaeo-sky matrix" findings .. http://www.topcities.com/OuterSpace/farshores/farshores/mat_43.htm http://www.topcities.com/OuterSpace/farshores/farshores/mat_101.htm REVISED ARCHAEO-SKY MATRIX FIGURES FOR THE 'CENTERED' LOCATION OF THE REMAINS OF "NOAH'S ARK" ('ARK OF ZIUSUDRA') Grid LAT 39 (deg) X 26 (min) X 25.56213018 (sec) North .. = 25920 North. { Note: this is a numerical match of Earth's precession cycle in years }. Grid LONG 13 (deg) X 06 (min) X 4.615384615 (sec) E.Giza .. = 360 E.Giza. { Note: "360" is the number of arc-degrees, conventional in our culture, for one complete circumference }. [ E.Greenwich 44 deg 14 min 5.415384615 sec ]. Grid POINT Value ... 25920 / 360 = 72. Note: "72", of course, is the number of years for one arc-degree of angular movement of Earth's precessional cycle. This is extremely significant. Correlation to "Tholus II" Cydonia Analogue Just South of Runways of Stewart AFB In Lower Hudson Valley, New York, USA I have posted emails regarding the "Cydonia Analoge" sites in the Lower Hudson Valley of New York, USA, as first reported *in detail* by Dr. Bruce Cornet in early 1998 on The Internet. Dr. Cornet has since removed those pages from The Internet, because he *admittedly* gave-in to pressure to do so, from some scientists at JPL, with whom Dr. Cornet was "trying to become friends". When I came up with the figure (above) of "352" for the apparently intended Grid LONG (E.Giza) of "The Limestone Boulder" .. I recalled my figure of "35200" for the Grid LONG (W.Giza) of "Tholus II" in the Lower Hudson Valley of New York, USA : 35200 W.Giza ... = 105 (deg) X 14 (min) X 23.94557823 (sec) W.Giza. [ W.Greenwich 74 deg 06 min 23.14557823 sec ]. NOW .. I also notice that my Grid LAT for "Tholus II" is a decimal harmonic of "3168" .. the important gematrian number I mentioned (above) !!! .. as .. (352 X 9) = 3168. My Grid LAT for "Tholus II" is ... 31680 North .. = 41 (deg) X 29 (min) X 26.64423886 (sec) North. Grid POINT Value of "Tholus II" ... 35200 / 31680 = 1.111111111 Notice ... Square of (1.111111111) = 1.234567901 .. the Grid POINT Value (Morton, 1998) of "EARTHFACE" .. called "The Face II" by Dr. Cornet, in his original report on this analogue of 'The Face' at Cydonia on Mars. Dr. Cornet actually showed, in great detail, how this analogue (its remains are very heavily eroded, of course, because of the extreme age of these Cydonia-analogue structures) .. is a "mirror-image" of The Face' at Cydonia on Mars. This is (was) very much apparent in his former website paper. Notice my Grid LONG for "EARTHFACE" (Morton, 1998) .. 105 (deg) X 31 (min) X 7.963133641 (sec) W.Giza .. = 25920 W.Giza. Not only a numerical match of Earth's precession cycle in years, but also an apparent numerical match of the Grid LAT of the 'centered' final resting place of "Noah's Ark", which I call .. 'The Ark of Ziusudra'. [ W.Greenwich longitude for "EARTHFACE" .. 74 deg 23 min 7.163133641 sec ]. Here, again, is my Grid LAT for "EARTHFACE" .. 20995.2 North .. = 41 (deg) X 24 (min) X 21.33658537 (sec) North. Grid POINT Value for "EARTHFACE" ... 25920 / 20995.2 = 1.234567901 CORRELATION TO 'GRID POINT VALUE' OF "THE THOLUS" AT CYDONIA ON MARS I see that the "25920" Grid LONG (E.Giza) of the 'amidships' centerline of the remains of 'The Ark of Ziusudra' is also a decimal harmonic match of the Grid POINT Value I found for "The Tholus" at Cydonia on Mars. Here are my figures, again (I have them posted on The Internet, and in the form of email to many people, and to some email lists) .. for "The Tholus" at Cydonia on Mars : Grid LAT 41 (deg) X 03 (min) X 10.53658537 (sec) North .. = 1296 North. { Note: decimal harmonic match of HALF Earth precession cycle }. *ALSO NOTE* ... I just noticed this now, as I write this .. the 'horizontal order' of the last 7 digits (immediately-above) in the precise decimal-fractional number of latitude arc-seconds .. "3658537" ... this is a 'horizontal order' MATCH of the last 7 digits in the precise decimal-fractional number of =0 latitude arc-seconds (above) for .. "EARTHFACE" !!! Grid LONG for "The Tholus" on Mars .. 01 (deg) X 05 (min) E.Cydonia .. = 5 E.Cydonia. { Note: (360 / 5) = 72 }. Grid POINT Value for "The Tholus" on Mars ... 1296 / 5 = 259.2 .. decimal harmonic numerical match of : 1) Earth precession cycle in years. 2) Grid LAT (North), amidships centerline, of remains of "Noah's Ark". 3) Grid LONG of remains of "EARTHFACE", mirror-image analogue of the remains of 'The Face' at Cydonia on Mars. FURTHER CORRELATION RE: 'HORIZONTAL ORDER' OF DIGITS .. AS NOTED 'ABOVE' .. Notice the full 10-digit figures, above, for the precise decimal-fractional numbers of latitude arc-seconds, for "EARTHFACE" and for "The Tholus" at Cydonia on Mars ... "21.33658537" arc-sec for latitude of "EARTHFACE". and ... "10.53658537" arc-sec for latitude of "The Tholus" at Cydonia. I already pointed-out the exact 'horizontal order' match of the last 7 =0 digits. Now .. notice the first 3 digits in each figure .. "213" and .. "105". If you subtract those "orders" .. 213 - 105 = 108 .. decimal harmonic of HALF of Earth's polar circumference in nautical miles .. (21600 / 2 = 10800). And if you add the digits of both of those "orders" together .. (2 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 0 + 5) = 12. Now ... multiply ... "12" X "108" = 1296 ... Grid LAT of "The Tholus" (North) at Cydonia .. and also Grid LAT (identical actual latitude, in fact) of "The City Square" at Cydonia. ALSO ... "10800" is the (North) Grid LAT I found for 'The Miami Circle' (Morton, 1999). CONJECTURE AS TO APPARENT "PLACEMENT" OF 'FINAL RESTING SPOT' OF 'ARK OF ZIUSUDRA' According to the work of Zecharia Sitchin, certain ancient texts mention a "navigator" on-board the vessel, along with Ziusudra ("Noah") and others. Those same texts also describe how Enki (half-brother and arch political rival of Enlil) master-minded the plan of survival for Ziusudra, Enki's "faithful servant". Apparently, from Sitchin's interpretation of these texts, the "navigator" on-board was not a trivial detail. Isn't the "nautonnier" (French word for "navigator") an important symbol (persona) involved in the tradition of Freemasonry ? My conjecture is that there was communication (radio, etc.) between the "navigator" and Enki .. during the ordeal. Sitchin describes (his interpretation, of course) how the texts say that The Anunnaki escaped the catastrophe by ascending into Earth orbit. I also think, based on "the limestone boulder" .. that this rock was deliberately positioned, beforehand, by Enki or by his 'faction' .. to specifically act as a very secure "snag" on the vessel at the very end of the long ordeal. The limestone composition-signature of this boulder could have been literally monitored from orbit by Enki. They (Enki's faction) would have known the exact size, shape, and composition of that boulder. The presence of the onboard "navigator" would have allowed for constant and gradual 'navigation' of the vessel, as the situation was monitored, bringing the vessel into proper 'calculated position' at the end of the ride, to finally slide into the pointed boulder on the west side of the ship. Even the exact "angle and speed of approach" to the pointed limestone boulder could have been manipulated in this scenario, it seems to me. And that "precise, monitored navigation" would have allowed the 'amidships centerline' to end-up on the planned Grid POINT .. just several yards away from "The Rock" in terms of longitude, and only approximately 45 Feet =0 away in terms of latitude.
