Ancient Indian lunar observatory in Ohio town is
eclipsed by golf
Christopher Maag, New York Times
November 28, 2005
NEWARK, OHIO - The Hopewell Indians used sharp
sticks and clamshells here 2,000 years ago to sculpt
7 million cubic feet of dirt into a sprawling lunar
observatory and the spiritual center of their far-flung
empire. . . .

Once every 18.6 years, the moon rises at the northernmost
point in its orbit and hovers within one-half of a degree of the
octagon's exact center. This makes the Newark Earthworks
twice as precise as the far more famous lunar observatory at
Stonehenge.
The discovery prompted Chris Scarre, a Cambridge University
archaeologist, to name the Newark mounds among the 70
wonders of the ancient world, one of only three such sites in the
United States.
