Second of a Series of Rock Art Decipherments for Ererê, Brazil,
C. Fred Hartt, Inscripcoes em rochedos do Brasil, Figure 5
As we have previously noted, in the Native America Land Survey by Astronomy, -- whose design for South America is recorded at the Miami Circle --
the rock art location of Ererê in Ceará State in northeastern Brazil
marks the stars of Orion,
whose Belt is called Orcorara as "3 stars" in Quechua,
pictured in our previous posting about the Cuzco Sun Temple
as three "hills", with orco meaning "hill" in Quechua.
Within the more local astronomy of South America over the course of time, however, Ererê, Brazil shows us rock art that contains the same cosmology that we found at the Cuzco Temple of the Sun, which, as we have shown in the previous posting, was really the Temple of the Galaxy, i.e. the Milky Way.
The images deciphered here and in subsequent postings are from Ererê, Brazil are found a work in the public domain by Charles Frederich Hartt (Carlos Frederico Hartt), see also MyHartt, translated into Spanish from the Portuguese by Joao Baptista Regueira Costa (traduccao), Instituto Archeologico e Geographico Pernambucano, Pernambuco, Recife 1895.
