Stochastic and Metrological Verification of an Archaic Geodetic Standard: A Monte Carlo Approach to Planar Anomalies on the WGS84 Geoid

This paper presents a rigorous metrological reconstruction and stochastic verification of an archaic spatial standard designated as the Sacred Cubit (SC = 0.623538… m). Moving away from traditional archaeological reverse engineering of degraded structures, we present a top-down m...

METROLOGICAL PHOTOGRAMMETRY AND STOCHASTIC ANALYSIS OF THE PANTHEON'S ROTUNDA: VERIFICATION OF A PROPORTIONAL CANON

The Roman Pantheon represents the most significant and exceptionally preserved monument of classical antiquity. Despite extensive archaeological and geodetic surveys, the internal proportional system of the Rotunda's geometry remains an open question in classical metrology. Stand...

METRICAL ANALYSIS OF THE ZGOŠĆA MONUMENT AND THE OLOVO (BAKIĆI) PILLAR: ARCHAEOMETRIC RECONSTRUCTION OF THE SACRED CUBIT (SC)

This study investigates the existence of standardized measurement systems in the stonemasonry practices of late medieval Bosnia through a rigorous metrical and statistical analysis of two morphologically distinct, yet culturally and chronologically homogeneous monuments from the...

THREE-DIMENSIONAL METROLOGICAL DECODING OF DIOCLETIAN'S PALACE THROUGH THE "SACRED CUBIT" (SL) ETALON: IMPERIAL RASTER OF SPLIT

This paper presents the results of a comprehensive three-dimensional archaeometric decoding of Diocletian's Palace in Split (Late Antiquity, late 3rd to early 4th century CE). Drawing upon millimeter-precise architectural surveys and historical documentation, this study demonstra...
