Great Circle: global alignment of ancient sites. Jim Allison identified a 'great circle' alignment of ancient sites in 1997 Line passes through Nazca (Peru), Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo, Cuzco, Napo Glaciers Continues through Tassili Caves (Algeria), Siwa Oasis, Giza Pyramids, Petra, Erbil

A 'Great Circle' alignment connecting ancient sites worldwide has been identified: Nazca, Machu Picchu, Giza, Petra, Angkor Wat, and Easter Island. The Easter Island-to-Giza distance equals approximately 16,168km. Sites reportedly sit on Earth's crust weak points, with distances related to the number 72 (precession cycle: 1 degree every 72 years). This alignment theory links major civilizations across continents.

Key facts:

- Jim Alison identified a 'great circle' alignment of ancient sites

- Line passes through Nazca (Peru), Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo, Cuzco, Napo Glaciers

- Continues through Tassili Caves (Algeria), Siwa Oasis, Giza Pyramids, Petra, Erbil

- Then through Mohenjo-daro, Khajuraho, Pi (Myanmar), Sukhothai, Angkor Wat

- Easter Island to Giza distance measured at 16,168-16,170 km

Key Facts

  • Jim Allison identified a 'great circle' alignment of ancient sites in 1997
  • Line passes through Nazca (Peru), Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo, Cuzco, Napo Glaciers
  • Continues through Tassili Caves (Algeria), Siwa Oasis, Giza Pyramids, Petra, Erbil
  • Then through Mohenjo-daro, Khajuraho, Pi (Myanmar), Sukhothai, Angkor Wat
  • Easter Island to Giza distance measured at 16,168-16,170 km
  • This equals 10,000 times the golden ratio, or quarter of Earth's circumference times golden ratio
  • All sites on the great circle are located on points of discontinuity (weak points) of Earth's crust
  • Distance between sites relates to the number 72 (precession of equinoxes: 1 degree every 72 years)
