Every single location in the UK is at the convergence of three or more ley lines between ancient monuments. As I type this, the line formed by the ancient Brill Earthworks and the Southam Holy Well crosses the line running through Morden Park Mound and the Leydene Ditches, pinpointing my precise current location. Not only that, but the ley line that crosses Small Down Knoll and the most renowned of all ancient sites, Stonehenge, also goes right through my house.
在英國的每一個單獨位置，是在古代遺跡的三條或更多的萊線之間的滙聚處。當我打這，由古代的布里爾土方工程和紹瑟姆聖井所形成的路線，交叉貫穿現代園丘和Leydene溝渠的線，確定了我當前的精確位置。不僅如此，交叉穿越小丹丘和所有古遺址最負盛名的巨石陣的萊線，亦穿越我的房子。
It's as though prehistoric Britons built monumental sites as a form of "ancient postcode".
它彷彿是史前英國人建成遺跡地點，作為“古代郵政編碼”的一種形式。
In fact, all modern postcodes mark the convergence of three or more prehistoric ley lines, one of which will always include Stonehenge. If you want to look up your home's ancient monumental alignments, just enter your postcode into this site built by programmer Tom Scott.
事實上，所有現代郵政編碼標誌著三條或更多史前萊伊線的聚合，其中一條經常包括巨石陣將。如果你想查看你家的古代遺跡排列，只需輸入您的郵政編碼到這個由程式員湯姆斯科特建立的網站。
The "ancient postcodes" theory is very similar to the work of Tom Brooks, who believes the locations of ancient monuments in England and Wales form such precise isosceles triangles that prehistoric Britons must have built them as a form of ancient satnav. Mr Brooks has been back in the news recently as he has just reissued his press release from 15 months ago to help promote his new book, Prehistoric Geometry in Britain: the Discoveries of Tom Brooks.
“古代郵政編碼”理論是非常相似湯姆布魯克斯的作品，他相信在英格蘭和威爾士的古蹟位置，形成這些精確的等腰三角形，史前英國人定已建立它們作為一種古老的衛星導航系統。布魯克斯先生最近已重回新聞，因為他從 15個月前剛剛重新發出他的新聞發布，以幫助推銷他的新書"英國史前幾何：湯姆布魯克斯的發現。"
The fact that every single modern postcode is mapped out in the alignment of prehistoric monuments must be significant because, in the words of Mr Brooks, "you cannot do that by chance". We are forced to interpret these amazing alignments the same way he does his triangles and "conclude that they received some form of external guidance".
每一個單獨的現代化郵政編碼是在史前古蹟的排列中被安排的事實一定是重大的，因為以布魯克斯先生的講法，“你不可能隨機做到這一點”。我們不得不解釋這些神奇的路線，以相同的方式他喜在他的三角形所做的，和“結論他們收到某種形式的外部指導。”
Of course, my conclusions are vacuous. There are so many prehistoric sites in England and Wales (about 1,500 of them), you cannot stand anywhere in the UK that is not at the hub of multiple ley lines. It's like standing in the middle of a dense forest and then being amazed when you look around and several trees line up with your location.
If you want more than just alignments of lines and have a thing for triangles, then those 1,500 ancient sites form 561,375,500 different triangles. That's more monumental triangles in England and Wales than there are seconds in 17 years and 9 months. That's more than 9,000 triangles for every square mile in the country. Out of that many triangles, some of them will form at random what appear to be very precise patterns.
When Mr Brooks last told us about his discoveries in January 2010, I responded by finding the same types of patterns, to the same level of precision, in the alignments of ancient Woolworths stores.
There is actually a whole area of maths known as Ramsey Theory which shows that you can find any pattern you want, to any level of precision you want, if you have enough random data to sort through. This method of selecting just the pattern you're after and then ignoring the vast majority of the data has since become known as "pick 'n' mix data analysis".
The prehistoric sites that dot the UK are indeed a national treasure that still have plenty of mysteries to reveal. However, plucking random patterns out of their distribution and claiming aliens must have been involved cheapens the genuine wonders of archaeology. I'm sure the ancient Britons did build certain sites along significant paths, but it's a shame to miss the forest because of the random distribution of trees.
