Not sure what you on about, i was just having a laugh. I picked a dodgy looking site on purpose so people wouldn’t get confused.

My statement that ruins are impossible to measure accurately was a dig at the expense of such theories. As they seem to pull out decimal numbers based on a layer of stones that aren't even there anymore.

For the record i do believe that there are real historical cases of mathematical knowledge hidden in works of art, which is what i meant with you can believe what you want. The nutcase theories do not present any substance that should make anyone believe anything other then they already did. Its just fun to deepdive.

If you intended sarcasm in your comment it missed the mark, it’s really difficult to discern with people who actually believe that garbage.

Did people use, or even occasionally stumble upon, seemingly “complex” mathematics? Sure.

Letting anyone make unverified claims about the origins or meaning, or even the methods is dangerous and shows a lack of critical thinking.
