Indigenous sacred geometry knowledge matched or exceeded European mystery schools. Native Americans could square the circle and trisect angles with equal or greater precision than Europeans Had sacred geometry knowledge equivalent to initiation rituals in European mystery schools Mounds at Newark, Ohio described as 'great POW grounds' established by Panther/Balum Priest
Research suggests Newark, Ohio's Hopewell earthworks demonstrate sophisticated geometry, including alignments based on angular measurements and solar/lunar cycles. The Newark Earthworks, built by the Hopewell culture around 200 BCE to 500 CE, feature precise geometric relationships that have drawn scholarly attention for their astronomical precision. Archaeological evidence shows complex earthwork layouts with precise sight lines, though specific claims about exact measurement equivalences (such as the nautical mile) remain subject to scholarly interpretation.
