The Megalithic Stones of Carnac - Revealing the Mysteries of the Stones

Carnac is one of the most fascinating places on earth, containing the largest collection of megalithic standing stones in the world.

Up until recently, no one was quite sure what purpose these stones served or how they were constructed. However, aided by satellite photography, GPS and laser measurements, the amazing geometry and relationships among the stones is being deciphered.

One of the most prominent experts on the Carnac stones is Howard Crowhurst, who has lived in Carnac for the past twenty years and has extensively studied the stones.

His breakthrough findings reveal that the entire complex was used for astronomy. He has confirmed that the stones were used to predict the summer and winter solstice, as well as track the complex phases of the moon. His work clearly reveals the geometrical, mathematical and astronomical principles which were followed in the precise placement of the stones.

He has also determined that the Carnac location was purposely chosen because it was located at the unique latitude on Earth at which the solstice sun, both summer and winter, aligned perfectly with the geometry used to measure the movements of the sun and moon.

Crowhurst has authored several books, including 'Carnac, the Alignments - When Art and Science Were One'.

His work and findings are also featured on several videos on YouTube, where he goes into amazing detail on the interwoven geometry and careful alignment of the stones in this amazing area.

And even more astounding is that this link to a specific latitude is now being established with other ancient sites around the world. Carnac has distinct similarities with other complexes, such as the Boyne Valley in Ireland, the Orkneys complex in Scotland and the Silbury hill complex in England. These sites are dated to the same approximate time, and all appear to have astronomy as a fundamental purpose of these complexes.

To add further to the mystery, there are also theories that these sacred sites can concentrate electromagnetic energy which is further enhanced by using crystalline rocks rich in quartz, such as granite stones erected on granite bedrock.

The Neolithic people who arranged these stones were not simple farmers looking at the sky and vaguely positioning stones.

These sites were erected at specific locations at a specific altitude, using extremely precise measurements. Placement of the stones was intentionally linked to exact North/South cardinal points so they could be used to accurately track and predict the movement of the sun, moon, and other heavenly bodies.

They had an incredible mathematical grasp of the movements of the sun and the moon at specific latitudes, and how the heavens moved in harmony with the earth.
