British Inch as the Ujtit of Measure of the Mound BiiildeJS.Gi 



So 105 feet is 1260 inches, and the number 126 is quite a famous 

 one among the ancients, especially in Hebrew Caballah. 



The fact is, these relations of measures so pervade the entire 

 aggregate of the surveys in the work of Stjuier and Davis, that it 

 would be tiresome, and really unnecessary to repeat almost all 

 their labors simply to force attention by mere accumulation. 



Group III. 



This group is characterized by the use of the number no, 

 in combination with 1080 of Group I. 



The number no is derived from the number 52S0, which /// 

 feet, is one mile in our measure. The divisions of this number 

 give the controlling measures of this group. The number 24 and 

 its inverse 42,' gives rise to the numbers as measures, controlling 

 the construction of the works in Groups I and II; and 5280 divid- 

 ed by 24 is 220, and the half of this is no, which with its mul- 

 tiples make the prominent measures in this group. 



The illustration, "Figure 4," is the rectangular ancient work 

 near Winchester, Randolph Co., Indiana; Plate 33, p. 93. 



No. I. This rectangle at Winchester. It is 1320 feet in length, 

 on one side, by 1080 feet upon the other. 1320 feet is one-fourth 

 of one mile. 1080 feet as a measure, characterizes the works in 

 Group I. i320~f-io8o^2400 feet. In the Newark elliptical 

 work, the number 2400 feet is divided into 1250 and 1150 feet, to 

 make the conjugate diameters. 1320 less 1080 shows the lack to 

 make an exact square. The difference is 240 feet. 1320 is 12 

 times no. 



No. 2. Rectangle shown in Plate 32, p. 91. It is 220 feet 

 long, by 120 feet broad. 220X 120=26400, or 13200X2.
