The authors have discovered that the imperial foot translates solar days into units of geocentric measure (imperial miles) using a simple formula to produce the equatorial circumference of the Earth. This is the key to ancient metrology all ancient units being morphed from the imperial foot.It does not say this in the book but 14.666r days is 1000 miles of the Earth's circumference so 44 days is 3000 miles. This is some coincidence!!D Kenworthy author of Stonehenge - The Eclipse (5280/360 = 14.666r) the Eclipse unit.

Astounding proof of knowledge from the ancient peoples
This book reveals how the ancient peoples living 3,000 to 4,000 years ago knew a huge amount more than any modern 'scientist' credits them with. It shows how the megalithic structures (such as Stonehenge, and the lines at Carnac) were built with deliberate knowledge and purpose. This knowledge included the knowledge that the earth was a spheroid, they knew how to measure it, knew how to navigate it, knew about the movements of the sun and the moon, and their relationship to the seasons on earth. This is important and mind-blowing knowledge about our ancestors which everyone should know.

Unique Research on Megalithic Monument
Formerly "The Measure of Albion": This book, from two leading pioneers in this field, reveals many new facts about ancient monuments such as that they were all symbolically coded using a single set of defined measures or lengths (i.e. metrology), that monuments were often interconnected using triangles and other sacred geometrical forms and that the size of the Earth itself was known - all a significant upgrade on what we expect from people with "no science".
