Martin Doutr� was born in Altadena, California, USA, in December 1946, but was raised and had his formative education in New Zealand. He has lived "back and forth" between the US, Continental Europe and New Zealand and has been educated in each region. He first became interested in archaeo-astronomy in the 1970's and, by applying exacting surveying and measurement techniques, has made a close study of mysterious, New Zealand, pre-Polynesian structures.

Below is an extract from www.celticnz.co.nz from the Bush Barrow Lozenge section:

Ancient astronomer priests, or "Masters of the Craft" were highly enlightened scientists and used their understanding of astronomical mathematics to bless the societies they served. These individuals lived in tremendous harmony with their surroundings, by knowing the rhythms, movements and cycles of nature. Theirs was a philosophy of abundance for all, based upon constantly monitoring daily circumstances of life in the present and anticipating or preplanning for events in the future. This they could do by having a sound knowledge of how nature predictably worked in conjunction with the cycles of the Sun & Moon.

For those in the present who wish to return to their true roots and forge strong links with the pre-Christian past, it is first necessary to understand the common, universally dispersed principles that guided many ancient societies.

To the great chagrin of many�one has to first learn the mathematical principles if one is to even begin to understand the guiding philosophy of the ancestors. This is an inescapable necessity, as the mathematical principles preceded the religious/ philosophical concepts. The nature worship religions of the ancients are founded on astronomical, cyclic mathematics.

No amount of communion with nature, evoking the names of half forgotten pagan deities, watching the solstice sunrise at Stonehenge or being mesmerised by the captivating strains of Celtic music are capable of providing a substitute or escape route� mathematics holds the sole key to gaining an understanding�you have to learn the maths!
