Zep-Tepi: The Binding of Time and Space

Where and when did our 360° system of metrology originate? Sumerian mythology records that we were given the knowledge by the 'Gods', while the Abrahamic scriptures declare it was from the 'Watchers'; neither of which are satisfactory answers. The term Zep-Tepi is associated with the 'First Time', when the 'Builder Gods' occupied pre-dynastic Egypt. This same expression was interpreted by Wallace Budge as The Merging of Time and Space, offering the possibility that this was actually a metrological reference. Was Giza selected to be the Axis Mundi of the ancient world? If so, why-and where did the knowledge first originate?

By using a combination of mythology and archaeo-astronomy, along with recent archaeology and DNA studies, this book traces the origins of this system from the first Axis Mundi at Giza/Heliopolis back to the megalithic culture at Göbekli Tepe, also home to the Biblical prophets.

Whilst the use of longitude and latitude is still credited to the Greeks, the 4:5:6 triangle (in whole degrees), which is found to exist between Giza and the other ancient 'Heliopolis' (in Lebanon), suggests a far earlier application. How this relates to the creation of the Nile Delta pyramids, the timing of the Biblical prophets, Mt. Ararat, and the birth of Sirius worship in Anatolia is explored in this fascinating journey along the Akhet Alignment.
