About This Project

Without the current understanding of mathematics & systems of measurements , ancient civilizations could still accurately derive fundamentals values & units in mathematics & metrology (Mohammadi,2023). How was this possible? Michel, (2006) suggests this can be attributed to their understanding of sacred geometry & Sacred Geometrical Circles. The research seeks to test the hypothesis by systematically deriving & analyzing sacred geometrical constructions & mathematical relationships that emerge.

What is the context of this research?

Mathematics & measurements are essential to science & everyday life. But does our current approach & understanding reflect their true origins or is there a deeper structure behind them?

The research explores the idea that the modern understanding of metrology & mathematics stem from sacred geometrical circles. These ancient forms, found across Egyptian, Mesopotamian, and other early cultures, often reflect consistent ratios & angular divisions (Lawlor, 1982). Historical the frequently correspond to astronomical or geometric patterns (Alder, 2002; Rossi, 2004), suggesting that our current understanding may have emerged from natural geometrical templates rather than pure convention.

By testing this hypothesis using geometric modeling and data analysis, this study aims to uncover the possibility of a unified, Sacred geometry-based origin of measurement & mathematics, offering new insights into how we define space, time, and distance (Stewart, 2001).

What is the significance of this project?

If measurement systems & mathematics are rooted in universal sacred geometrical structures, this can offer a profound explanation on the origins of how humans historically understood space, time, and the cosmos. It could also enhance how we teach geometry, design measuring tools, and even inform future mathematical/metrology discoveries by relying on sacred geometry as a basis (Odhiambo, 2024). In addition, this can enhance the integration of different mathematical & metrology system by identifying their sacred geometrical origins & basing the inter/intra conversions on sacred geometrical patterns & attributes. Chen, (2023) adds that this can also aid in understanding the nature of mathematical/metrology knowledge & contribute to the development of thinking & research skills of the two.

What are the goals of the project?

1. To construct foundational sacred geometrical circles e.g.the seed & fruit of life using Geogebra-explained lab note 1.

2. To derive & examine the recurring patterns & relationships of the circles to identify their properties & attributes-explained in lab note 3.

3. To derive & examine mathematical relationships (E.g. ratios, angles, divisions, constants) that naturally emerge from these circular constructions as explained in lab note 2.

4. To identify correlations between these relationships &core elements of modern mathematics & metrology, e.g. units of length & time. E.g. if 1unit of time is a circle then it will require 100, 6000, & 36000 inter-locking circles to depict a second, minute, & hour to analyze the circles' attributes equivalent.

5. To evaluate the consistency & repeatability of these relationships as evidence of an underlying geometric origin.

6. To determine whether or not these findings support the hypothesis.

7. Submit findings for peer review & publication.

Budget

Platform/Software costs

To maintain a centralized online platform where research progress, findings, visualizations, data tables, etc. can be freely availed to everyone as not ALL the research elements can be included in a journal article. Some of the software needed for data presentation e.g. Adobe Suite require subscriptions plans.

High-Performance Laptop for Geometric Modeling & Data Analysis

The available office laptop lacks the hardware & software specifications needed to visualize complex, multi-circle sacred geometric diagrams & large Excel data tables. E.g. if a circle represents a second, it will require drawing 60 interlocking circles to represent a minute.

Direct Labor Cost

To compensate for research activities and tasks.

Publication & Peer Review Fees

To support submission of findings for peer review & publication in academic journals.

Gregory's theory of sacred geometry, if proven will fundamentally change our understanding of the universe. It will expand our understanding of time and space. Gregory's understanding of sacred geometry builds on the intrinsic understanding of great thinkers who have come before him. Highly recommended.
I am excited about this project am certain it will solve some mathematics and statistics problems

Project Timeline

The first week will focus on literature review, followed by two weeks of constructing sacred geometrical circles and documenting their properties & attributes. Weeks 3–4 will involve data analysis and identifying correlations with modern math and metrology. The final three weeks will be dedicated to drafting a manuscript for peer review and submitting it by week eight for publication.

Team Bio

The research will be led by Isaac Odhiambo, the PI of the organization Isaac Gregory Odhiambo (UEI-E5UCPMVYRA78). Due to the high-graphical/visual nature of the research, the PI will be assisted by Linda Mworia, an independent graphical designer and the research assistant/affiliate that works with the organization on a project basis. Linda Mworia & Isaac Odhiambo have previously authored a book on the diamond ratio an investigation of a common ratio on planetary objects.

ISAAC GREGORY ODHIAMBO

My goal in life is to make a difference! To me, making a difference means improving something or making things better than I found them. As a result, a few years ago I discovered that mathematics and metrology (measurement) systems can be improved. Since then, I have dedicated my life towards doing exactly that and hence the birth of the Gregorian Universal System and Units of Measurement System (GUSUMS).

Linda

Ever since I was young I have been fascinated by geometry. It is through this common passion that i met Isaac Odhiambo who introduced me to sacred geometrical circles and their properties. From this we became research partners and affiliates of the same organization. From this common passion we co-authored a book together on the diamond ratio which was largely influenced by sacred geometry.

Additional Information

The principal proposer is the Principal Investigator (PI) of Isaac Gregory Odhiambo and the founder of the Gregorian Universal System and Units of Measurement (GUSUMS). The organization operates as a registered organization under SAM.gov and has been assigned the following identifiers:

  • Unique Entity ID (UEI): [E5UCPMVYRA78]
  • NATO Commercial and Government Entity Code (NCAGE): [SSAL3]

This concept of this research originated as a personal curiosity and hobby. While exploring ancient sacred geometrical circles & patterns—such as the Seed of Life—Isaac Odhiambo discovered that these designs are not only symbolic but also encode quantifiable mathematical and metrology relationships. These relationships appear to correspond with modern systems of measurement.

One of the breakthroughs in this process was the development of a new formula for the circumference of a circle, derived from sacred geometry. The GUSUMS formula for calculating the circumference of a circle is

Circumference = (Diameter/7) + (Diameter × 3)

The above formula gives the same results as when pi × diameter when pi is exactly 22/7. The GUSUMS circumference formula reveals a direct relationship to the properties & attributes of sacred geometrical pattern as the diameter multiplied by 3 is the perimeter of an inscribed hexagon & the diameter/7 is the number of circles needed to complete the seed of life.

Similarly, the PI developed a chord segment equation that calculates ‘polar’ diameter of a circle or the line segment that cuts across the circle at 60-300 degrees or 120-240 degrees. This was based on the number of divisions of first sacred geometrical as explained in lab note 2 . The new formula for calculating the length of such a chord is;

Chord Segment = Radius × √3

It is the above and other findings that have not yet been published in academic literature that inspired the research and the idea that there is a possibility that there can be more mathematical and metrology discoveries that can be made by doing further research and creating awareness on sacred geometry in recognized and trusted academic journals. previously published in academic literature and are entirely new contributions to mathematics and metrology & hence the importance of this proposal.

Minimizing Bias and Ensuring Objectivity

To reduce the possibility of confirmation bias, the research will implement several strategies:

  • 1. All geometric modeling and measurements will be conducted using widely available software (e.g., GeoGebra) with verifiable outputs.
  • 2. Data analysis and unit conversion relationships will be subjected to independent review and reproducibility, using structured Excel datasets.
  • 3. A control group of randomly generated geometric patterns will be compared against sacred geometrical figures, current figures of measurements, and generally acceptable mathematical constants, formulas, and figures to ensure that observed correlations are statistically significant and not due to arbitrary alignment.
  • 4. Results will be shared in open-access formats, by submitting the findings for peer-review & publications in trusted academic journal —ensuring scholarly scrutiny and broader validation.
  • 5. The research will utilize sacred geometrical circle. A sacred geometrical circle as explained in lab note 1 is a primary geometric form that serves as the foundational reference for generating subsequent geometrical structures through mathematically consistent and non-arbitrary methods. This means that the attributes & properties of subsequent circles are consistent with the first circle. This reduces biases and errors due to inheritable geometry of subsequent circle, there is no use of free parameters, repeatability, & transparency, & its adoption of geometric precision over interpretation.

Funding this research can play a crucial role in developing and creating a new theory altogether that explains the origins of mathematics and metrology. The research is an attempt at investigating the origins of measurements & mathematics from a new perspective that has never been done before.
