More #MoundMonday
Some of the largest mounds in the world are accurately placed at significant latitudes. I first noticed the largest-in-volume #prehistoric earthen construction in the Americas, #MonksMound, #Cahokia, #latitude tangent = 4/5.

"Monument placement at latitudes where small rational numbers describe the local geometric relationship to celestial motions has astronomical utility."
