Guided Discoveries and the Precession of the Equinoxes

JJ Ainsworth and Hugh Newman describe discovering unrecorded carvings and alignments by being at the sites during specific times of the year, such as the September Equinox. These 3D reliefs appear to be designed to interact with sunlight at precise moments, potentially marking the Precession of the Equinoxes. The transition from the age of Leo to other constellations may be reflected in the shifting animal symbolism at the sites.
