Summary
Four intriguing Stone Chambers were discovered near the town of Crestone, Colorado, at
38°N. They appear to tell the story of the Egyptian discovery of America via the Bering Sea
by king Menkaure of the Fourth Dynasty (c.2570 BC). The four Atlantic crossings were
subsequently discovered by three kings of the Fifth Dynasty. The Chambers date from the
time period of Atlantis (2500-1200 BC).
Introduction
Crestone is a statutory town in Saguache County in Southwestern Colorado, at 38°N and
105.7°W. It is located on a section of land on the alluvial fan of North Crestone Creek. It is a
small village at the foot of the western slope of the Sangre de Cristo Range, in the northern
part of the San Luis Valley, at an elevation of 7,923 ft (2,417 m). Crestone is named for the
14,000-foot peaks (c.4,270 m), that lie just east of the town: Crestone Peak and Crestone
Needle.
Near Crestone are four intriguing stone 'hut' structures, or Chambers. All of them have an en-
trance, but the smallest one (Fig.2) does not have a roof. Two entrances closely resemble each
other (Figs.1&2). One Chamber has a stone 'tail' which aligns to the East. One has a stone
'shelf' in the back which aligns with the Winter Solstice sunset. - Nearby is a large ‘stone
cross’ on the ground. (Refs.1,2)

Egyptian discovery of America
King Menkaure
Crestone is located at 37.996°N. It means the people who built the Chambers were aware of
the exact latitude of 38°N, and considered it of importance. The four Chambers appear to re-
fer to the 40th latitude line. It encodes the discovery of America in the Fourth Dynasty (Old
Kingdom). Latitudes were already known c.4800 BC, as shown by the monument of Barné-

2. nez, Brittany, France. Two Chambers have similar entrances, confirming this main latitude
line, 2° above the Site, at 38+2= 40°N. Crestone Peak and Crestone Needle, the two peaks
just east of the town, confirm it, again.
It happened at the southern Aleutian islands, at the south side of the Bering Sea, at the com-
plementary latitude of 90-40= c.50°N by the 5th king Menkaure (Mycerinos, c.2580-2562 BC)
of this dynasty. In antiquity the use of complementary latitudes was very common. The length
of the 40th latitude line from coast to coast across North America equals 50°, confirming it.
The latitude line of Crestone crosses the Arkansas River in the east five times, confirming it,
again. – The meridian, or north-south line of Crestone leaves the West Coast of Mexico 38-
20= 18° below the Site, confirming his 18 years of reign.
The meridian of the Site runs to the South Platte River, 1° higher, at 38+1= 39°N. The exact
level of the southern Aleutian islands is provided by its complementary latitude, at 90-39=
51°N.
The holy Arctic Circle, at 67°N, is the northernmost line the Sun still shines at midwinter day
(Sun religion). It shows king Menkaure returned via the Bering Strait, 1° below it, at 67-1=
66°N. He discovered this crossing, too, 66-51= 15° above the southern Aleutian islands. Two
Chambers have similar entrances, which confirms he discovered two crossings. Crestone Peak
and Crestone Needle, the two peaks just east of the town, confirm it, again. (Refs.3-6)

Crossings of the Atlantic
King Sahure
The southern Cape Verde islands, off shore West Africa, are situated at 15°N (see above). The
Nile Delta, at 30°N, encodes the sailing direction of the Southern Crossing of the Atlantic,
with the wind and the current, 30° SSW. The 50th latitude line near the southern Aleutians en-
codes the point of arrival, Cape São Rock (the Holy Rock), Brazil, at 5°S, as well as the Fifth
Dynasty. The sailing distance of 2 Moiras, or 20°, encodes the 2nd king Sahure (c.2510-2498
BC), who discovered it. Two Chambers have similar entrances, which confirm this discovery
by the 2nd king. – Crestone is located 50-38= 12° below the 50th latitude line, confirming his
12 years of reign.

3. This King had to return. Crestone is located at the level of the nine islands of the Azores in
the middle of the Ocean, at 38°N. It shows he returned from Cape Race, the SE Cape of New-
foundland, 9° above Crestone, at 38+9= 47°N. The initial sailing direction, with the wind and
the current, is 20° ESE, and the sailing distance is 2 Moiras, or 20°, to the two islands of the
West Azores. The two peaks, Crestone Peak and Crestone Needle, illustrate this Crossing was
discovered by this 2nd king, as well.
The West Azores are located at 39°N, as indicated by the meridian of the site, which runs to
the South Platte River at this latitude. It also runs to the North Platte River, 43-38= 5° above
the Site, which confirms it happened in the Fifth Dynasty. The five islands of the Central
Azores at the latitude of Crestone confirm it. The two Upright Stones of both entrances of
Chambers I and II (Figs.1&2) confirm the two southern crossings of the Ocean were discove-
red by the 2nd king Sahure of this dynasty.
The two Upright Stones of both entrances refer to the Strait of Gibraltar, 2° below Crestone,
at 38-2= 36°N. It is the exit of the Mediterranean Sea. The four Chambers are located at the
level of the 9 islands of the Azores, confirming this latitude at 4x9= 36°N. It refers to the cir-
cumference of the planet Earth of 36 Moiras, or 360° (1 Egyptian Moira= 10 moiras= 10°). It
shows the 2nd king Sahure was the first king who circumnavigated the Earth.
Crestone is located at 38°N. The village is named for the two 14,000-foot peaks (c.4,270 m),
that lie just east of the town: Crestone Peak and Crestone Needle. These have a height of
4,270/111= c.38 millimoiras (1 moira= 1°= 111 km). They confirm this particular latitude.
The complementary latitude of 90-38= 50+2= 52°N confirms the 2nd king Sahure of the Fifth
Dynasty, who discovered the two southern crossings of the Ocean. (Refs.7-11)

King Neferirkare
The Nile Delta is located at 30°N. It encodes the Northern Crossing of the Ocean from the
Shetland Islands, via the South Cape of Greenland, to Cape Chidley, Canada, at the comple-
mentary latitude of 90-30= 60°N. It was discovered by the 3rd king Neferirkare (c.2498-2478
BC). So, the third crossing of the Ocean was discovered by this 3rd king, as illustrated by the
three Chambers with roofs at Crestone. Two Chambers have similar entrances with a third

4. Stone at the top (Figs.1&2), confirming it, twice. – The meridian of Crestone leaves the West
Coast of Mexico at 20°N, confirming the 20 years of reign of this King.
King Unas
The last discovered crossing starts at Abaco Island, northern Bahama’s, 3° below the Missis-
sippi Delta, at 30-3= 27°N. The 2nd king Sahure (c.2510-2498 BC) reigned for 12 years. It
shows the sailing distance to Bermuda, at 30+2= 32°N, was 12 moiras, or 12°. This island is
located 9° above the holy Tropic of Cancer, at 23+9= 32°N. At midsummer day the Sun is
there at right angles above (Sun religion).
It shows the Crossing from Bermuda to the nine islands of the Azores was discovered by the
9th and last king Unas (c.2403-2370 BC) of this dynasty. Chamber II has a fourth, Cover Sto-
ne above the entrance (Fig.2), confirming this fourth Egyptian King. Crestone is located at the
latitude of the three island groups of the Azores (the East, Central, and West Azores), which
encode the long sailing distance, with the wind and the current, of 3 Moiras, or 30°. The three
Chambers with roofs confirm it.
The 2nd king Sahure of the Fifth Dynasty sailed from the five islands of the Central Azores to
the two islands of Madeira, at 38-5= 33°N. Their latitude encodes the 33 years of reign of
king Unas (c.2403-2370 BC). He discovered the island of Bermuda, 50-32= 18° below the
50th latitude line, confirming the 18 years of reign of king Menkaure (c.2580-2562 BC), who
discovered America. - The four Chambers of Crestone were made in honor of the four Egyp-
tian Kings who were involved in the discovery of America. However, they also celebrate the
four discovered crossings of the Atlantic Ocean. (Refs.12-17)

Religion
The 18 years of reign of king Menkaure refer to the ancient civilization around the south point
of the Gulf of Campeche, Mexico, at 18°N. It was the place where the Olmec civilization star-
ted, the holiest place of the America’s. It is the center of the Underworld, “the Realm of the
Dead, at the other side of the waters (the Ocean), in the land where the Sun sets (America).”

5. It is located at half the latitude of the Strait of Gibraltar, at 36/2= 18°N. It is the center of the
Land of Punt, at a symbolic distance of half the circumference of the planet Earth, 18 Moiras,
or 180° from the Land of the Living (Egypt). The ancient Egyptian “Book of the Dead” con-
tains c.180 Spells for the Afterlife, confirming it. It is the oldest book on Earth. (Refs.18-32)

Date
North and South America were colonies of Egypt between c.2500 and 1200 BC. Together,
they formed the empire of Atlantis. It was the time period of the metal trade
from America to the Old World. Copper from Upper Michigan and Isle
Royale, and tin, silver and gold from Bolivia were shipped across the Ocean
to the Mediterranean. The four stone Chambers of Crestone, CO, date from
this time period. Monuments celebrating the Egyptian discovery of America
were not made anymore after the fall of the Empire of Atlantis, c.1200 BC.
