MILKY WAY POLES
When
our ancestors began to become settlers, they also began to build their villages much likely
to their knowledge and ideas of the heavenly pictures and its cosmological meaning.

This
copy sketched picture (1) from Denmark, northern Jutland, location Udsholt, shows 2 significant
features. First the (black marked) group of cupmarks with a wheel showing the star
constellation of Ursa Minor or Little Bear, and the northern circumpolar centre in the night
sky as shown on the star map picture beside to the right.
Secondly
the figure with the numbers to the left. If you extend the lines out from the
concentric rings, you will get the 4 cardinal directions in our Galaxy compared
to the placement of the Sun System.
As
it again is about to be a common knowledge, at least amongst astroarchaeologists,
our ancestors placed their holy places in alignment with the Sun and the Moon.
But it is not quite as well recognized that our ancestors also build their holy
places in alignment with the cardinal directions of our Galaxy.

The middle
picture (2) is a printed section taken from a celestial computer program.
The green circle represent the Northern Celestial Pole (NCP), and the red
circle represent the Northern Galactic Pole (NGP).

If
you stitch picture 1 above and picture 2 together, you have got a remarkable
resemblance between ancient intuitive knowledge and modern science! In my opinion our
ancestors clearly have sensed
some cosmological facts
which seemingly can be confirmed by modern astronomical and cosmological science!
In
the prolonged directions of the rounded "arms" in the red circle
cross, you have the star constellation of Sagittarius
and the centre of our Galaxy pointing at number 1. In line 2 you will se the constellation of
Pisces.
Line 3 shows the direction towards the star constellations of Gemini and the
line 4 point towards the star constellation of Virgo. The spot of the Northern
Galactic Pole (NGP) are placed approximately at "Berenices Hair Locks" or
"Charles's Heart".

This
situation are to be seen at midnight, January the 4īth to the north, and our
ancestors had two significant stars, namely Vega in Lyra and Sirius in The Big Dog, as
their guiding stars to mark a celestial line to this special holy celestial
constellation time of the year.

Picture 1 above is from Denmark, locality Als. The cupmarks on the middle stone
is showing the star constellation of The Big Bear or The Big Dipper, and
underneath there is a 4 spoke wheel. Again, if you prolong the spoke lines, also on
a star map, you will get the cardinal directions in our Galaxy compared to our
Sun system.
