postscript regarding the hypothetical Chakana plaza
and sanctuary at Sipan in around 3 500 BP
The diagonal distance of the fire poles representing
a solar period of 81 years would also represent
a lunar period of 1002 moons or lunations or synodic
months, in smaller numbers 334 moons for 27 years,
according to the following astronomical sequence
relating moons (first number) to years (second number)
37/3 (plus 99/8) 136/11 235/19 334/27
99 moons for 8 years -- Lascaux; Sumer and Akkad
136 moons for 11 years -- Mallia
235 moons for 19 years -- Knossos
334 moons for 27 years -- Sipan ?
The fire poles mark a square, one diagonal representing
81 years, the other 1002 lunations. The Chakana plaza
and sanctuary would then be a lunisolar complex,
worhshipping th earth goddess Pachamama in her
mythical union with the sky of moon and sun above.
