Isn't this the 💩
update to give history about the stones.
The following is posted on ExploreGeorgia.org:
-
"The Georgia Guidestones, Elberton's most unusual set of granite monoliths, poses a mystery for the numerous visitors who visit the site seven miles north of Elberton on Georgia Highway 77.
-
Known as America's Stonehenge, this 19-foot high monument displays a 10-part message espousing the conservation of mankind and future generations in 12 languages.
-
The Guidestones also serve as an astronomical calendar, and every day at noon the sun shines through a narrow hole in the structure and illuminates the day’s date on an engraving.
-
The names of four ancient languages are inscribed on the sides near the top:
Babylonian cuneiform
Classical: Greek Sanskrit and Egyptian Hieroglyphics
-
The Guidestones are mysterious in origin, for no one knows the identity of a group of sponsors who provided its specifications."
-
Quick study / review need some bakers to correlate the various #s utilized within this structure.

The Georgia Guidestones are 19.3 feet tall, but this is meaningless. No one cares about "feet."
The ratio of feet to cubit is somewhere between 1.46 and 1.72 feet.
Taking the lower bound, gives 19.3/1.46 = 13.0 cubits.
Taking the upper bound gives 19.3/1.72 = 11.2 cubits.
If I assume it is 12 cubits tall, that gives 19.3/12 = 1.61 feet per cubit which isn't too far off from the golden ratio, but I think that is likely a coincidence because like I said, I don't think "the foot" is anything meaningful. This is however very close to the "legal cubit" of the 8th century islamic world, which was at the time, the center of the worlds science community.
The problem is, the cubit is loosely defined. I think that is intentional fuckery. By defining it loosely it leads us away from appreciating that the people from "ancient" times knew way more about the world than we give them credit for.
I can't find it atm, but there was a work, I think by Graham Hancock, that talked about the cubit, and how it was almost certainly based on fundamental principles of the world. It was something like the length of a certain pendulum swing I think, which was constructed based on something to do with the rotation of the earth (I don't think that's quite right). Whatever it was, it was something that is always the same everywhere on the planet. You could construct a perfect "ruler" from materials you could find laying around. The cubit wasn't "somewhere in between" anything, it was fundamental to the planet Earth.
I need to find that video to see how long they say a cubit is. That would give a better indication of how many cubits high the Guidestones are/were.
