Quite right pal. 

I've found a spiral carved in stone up on the moors near an old burial mound. I'll try and find it again and take a photo 

I think the more the human race progresses, the further we're getting from nature.

Without nature, nothing.

I've never heard of the sexagesimal system before.some very clever people then them babylonians.

Just think when they are looking at the stars on a clear night.what are they actually working out the movement surely.but how can they work time out by watching that.surely there must of been weeks when the cloud stopped them observing the stars..

It's a right mind bender really..

It was the Sumerians that came up with the sexagesimal system and they were around before the Babylonians. In 2004 B.C., the Elamites stormed Ur and took control. ... The ruling Elamites were eventually absorbed into Amorite culture, becoming the Babylonians and marking the end of the Sumerians as a distinct body from the rest of Mesopotamia. All hominoid species were starting to die out around 4100bc, 6000 years ago, then WHAMO!...the Sumerians appeared. They were the first to farm with cultivated crops, have domesticated animals, use money, have a judicial system, courts, mathematics, kept records and many other firsts, but they just appeared from nowhere. They say they were given all their knowledge by 'the people that came from the seas to the south' the Anunnaki. The Anunnaki were worshipped as deities by the Sumerians. N.A.S.A. also uses a sexagesimal system as a sexagesimal format assumes right ascension in hours/minutes/seconds which is what you need to for correct Equatorial and Galactic coordinate systems.

Mad innit. I've found em on mountain tops in the lakes and digging on the tops of the moors of the pennines. All once at the bottom of the ocean. We, trump, and fatty pork pies and scabby peas are just an inconsequential pin mark on the time line of the universe 

That we are mate.they say the world is about 4.5 billion years old.and we been counting for 2020 years.a mere blink..

Even more mind blowing is working in the opencast about 200ft + from the surface and exposing coal seams.that was once jungle or forest etc..it's hard to get your head around the build up of 200ft of rock on top of it.amazing really..

I used to to cut block of lime stone into slabs, the amount of fossils was unbelievable,  for the most part, all spirals.

Quite fascinating fossils are I think.so the sedament in the sea actually turning to solid rock.did you keep any mate.

Never really thought of that with the coal! Mad isn't it 

My masonic certificate from grand Lodge gives the date as 6017 A L, when I became Mason. Apperently we started counting 4000 years before you mere mortals.

No, there was so much of them. We used to make tiles out of the lime stone and the fossils used to come out in the finished product.

How does someone with such short fingernails get so much shit behind em. Mind blown! 

[Squirrel_Basher 17,102]

More to the point if King thinks of shit like this I’d imagine it was touch and go whether any filling actually made the pies and not the floor ffs .

What's AL stand for mate.

It is mad.so my thinking is that if the coal is 200ft below the surface.then surely the rock above must of formed from airborne dust which has taken 100's millions of years to land and be compressed by even more dust etc.and the weight turned it into solid rock.

It's crazy sitting down the hole and looking at all the seams of solid rock above the coal seam.and not just 1 coal seam there could be 3 or 4 etc...of varying thicknesses..
