You can't really better Rob Davis aka RJL /Einstein /Dr Stuart Love etc for unconscious humour but another researcher and "Dr " has pretensions for the title . This from the portal is a good start ,explains the source of the term "mooning " .

Very disappointed, he hasn't even noticed the all important nipple alignments.


There's a few Egyptian paintings with differing "angles " and measure from the Cerne giant that seem to have gone "unresearched " , look forward to them .


Yes, that big club of his must point to something.


Orion and a "stargate" , if you believe Peter Knight .


He believes it and is very sincere.


Sincerity doesn't equate with accuracy though .
I haven't seen his figures only this mention "Using a specialist computer programme, Peter plotted the night sky as it would have appeared to our Iron Age ancestors and found that at that time the shape of the club in the constellation of Orion’s club would have risen directly above the figure on the hillside. He suggests that during the Iron Age a “stargate”, a starless gap in the sky, would have also been aligned with Orion’s club."
If that is what he claims then there are big problems .The difference between the rise position of orion in 800 BC ,the earliest date for the IA and today is 9 degrees ,if we go to the end of the IA the difference is only 4 degrees .
The real problem is that the club is aligned to 118 degrees and at no time in the IA was Orion anywhere near rising on the horizon as seen from the giant at that azimuth .You would have to go back to about 6000BC for that to be the case .
