PENDELUM

This time pendelum is the result of the research done by Docent Göran Henriksson in mathematics and archeology at the University of Uppsala, Sweden. Docent Göran Henriksson noticed the stone carvings or grooves in the bedrock, made in rock or in big stones, all over Scandinavia. He measured the direction of the carvings and put the data into his computor. The carvings are about 50 cm to 150 cm long and 2-5 cm deep and 2-5 cm of width. Docent Göran Henriksson thinks that the bronze age people probably used this kind of tool to make the carvings that orientate towards the full moon at the Midsummer sunset that happens every 19th year, the so called Methon cycle. The people at Gotland discovered probably this cycle 1500 year before Methon. The idea is very simple. First you would look at the fullmoon and turn the pendelum that you could pinpoint the moon from the stand. When the pendelum is put in the right position then two persons would sway the
pendelum back and forth, adding sand and water. The protruding part of the pendelum would be oak and is swopped
after being used. The grinding itself is made of the sand and the water.
The first carving or groove in the bedrock, at least so far, was found at Huggreifs county at the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea for 5292 years ago.That means that we would count the 5292. This is also defined as the Vanayear on the first page of this homepage. Now we count 1998 according to established time counting.

There are about 6000 to 10000 stone carvings or grooves in Scandinavia. The possibility that these stone carvings or grooves in the bedrock would just be a coincidence is 1 in 15 millions.
