At present Trethevy Quoit is the subject of an astroarchaeological survey being carried out by Horsedrawn Pictures. A ten year study has intensified over the last two years and the company has moved itself to Cornwall to establish a more permanent presence on site to study the usages of this 6000 yea old Solar Construct.
Preliminary findings indicate that the structure is a very accurate solar time keeper, in respect of the way light and shade play upon its inside and outside. Equinoctical and solstical alignments have been found of great accuracy. some enigmatic 'carvings' have also been found which are at present the subject of close study. Many other things have been found; not least a capability to directly observe the sun through apertures in the structure.
The study of the Optical Dynamics of this Solar Construct is ongoing. For further details:- [email protected]
