The image may only look like a pile of old rocks in outback Australia. But, some scientists assert that, if observed, pile the stones showed that the ancient Aborigines were the first astronomers on earth.
Believe it may not. But this conclusion was launched after the scientists observed the stone found at a farm near Mount Rothwell, 50 miles west of Melbourne. They believe large stones arranged on the ground that aims to map the movement of the sun, which made a kind of ancient sundial by primitive tribes. If that is true, then the stylist stones were thought to have been familiar with astronomy since long before the days of Stonehenge and the time of the pyramids in Egypt thousands of years ago.
“These old stones have been laid out precisely to map the sun,” says astrophysicist Professor Ray Norris, who comes from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization in Canberra.“(Layout) cannot be done on the basis of suspicion alone. It requires a very precise measurement and precise,” he said, quoted VIVAnews from Dailymail, Monday, February 7, 2011. Observed from the surface, Professor Norris said the stone was laid by the Aborigines estimated age of 10,000 years ago, even thousands of years before the era of Stonehenge and the pyramids of Egypt. A group of Australian astrophysicist is quite famous because of the relatively accurate findings based on observations from stones and other physical objects. But only this time they came up with results that can distort history. Research continues. If these findings are proven definitively placed as an ancient sundial, the famous monument of Stonehenge from England is relative newcomer to the world of astronomy. Just to note, according to some archaeologists, Stonehenge was built around 2000-2500 BC and was founded by a group of ancient people to give the line of sight to the sun and moon to later become a specific date, especially to anticipate the arrival of summer and winter. The pyramid was built around 3200 BC.
