I will be speaking at Megalithomania 2023, at 2:45PM on Saturday 6 May 2023 in Glastonbury Town Hall.
Tickets are now available here to attend in person or online.
I'll be discussing research from my book, The Map and the Manuscript, as well as introducing new material.
Here is the blurb:
"There is a mystery hidden in the layout of certain Templar châteaux, churches and peaks in the foothills of the Pyrenees in the south of France. Simon Miles began an investigation into claims of alignments in the area in the late 1990s. In this talk, he presents his results, including the discovery of multiple examples of meridians marked in mountain peaks, a collection of large-scale Pythagorean triangles and an extraordinary landscape zodiac laid out around a village with a fascinating history. Taken together, these fragments are the traces of a vast astronomical instrument embedded in the landscape of the Pyrenees mountains, aligned to major compass angles, the winter solstice sunrise and major stars, in similar manner to related ancient sites all over the world."
