i FIRST MET THE idea of measuring time by the passing of a star accross
a given distance in The secrets of the great pyramid by Peter Tompkins
who actually suggested the idea to Livio Stechini and he realised that time must be somehow tied into the ancient system of weights and measures. So I was surprised to see that this fact was not mentioned in CIV 1.
I think that the figure 366 is of great interest in the study of the ancient system of w/m but surely 366.25 is the figure we should use?

I also have been trying to find a link to the geodesy of Bruce Cathie;
who created a new measure the geodetic foot which is 6000/6080
the british imperial foot, which is not far off 360/366.
I wonder what the significance of that is.

I hope that people will see that
