Summary
In the year of 2000 a Globe of flint was found on the shore of Lake Superior near the mouth
of the Brule River, WI. It has a diameter of 18 inches, and was carved with a belt of 28 rectan-
gles at an angle of 23°. It shows the 5th king Menkaure of the Fourth Dynasty discovered
America via the southern Aleutian islands. The belt shows a distance of 280° of longitude to-
wards the east, from Egypt to Newfoundland. The Globe is a Declaration of the King of
Egypt, which states that from now on North and South America will be ruled according to the
Sun religion, and will be colonies of Egypt, parts of the Empire of Atlantis. - The Globe is
probably the oldest artifact carved by people from the Old World in America, c.2570 BC.
Introduction
The June/July issue of the year 2000 of the Lake Superior Magazine reported the find of a
Carved Spherical Rock near the mouth of the Brule River in Douglas County, Wisconsin. The
Stone is located near the shore of Lake Superior, 40 km east of the city of Duluth, MN, at
47°N. The type of stone appears to be flint from the Thunder Bay area, north of Isle Royale. It
weighs about 200 pounds (c.90 kg).
The Rock was dressed in the shape of a perfect sphere with a diameter of 18 inches (46 cm).
Its height is less, because it sits on a flat surface. Photo’s of the Stone were made by Mr. Bar-
ry Hanson of the Magazine. One of these photo’s allowed us to calculated a height of 14.5 in-
ches (36.8 cm).
The surface of the Stone is rather rough, but smooth in its details. It looks very weathered, and
for that reason very old. - It appears the Stone represents the planet Earth. It closely resembles
a Globe. At the level of the equator a “Belt” was carved at an angle of 23°, and having a width
of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). The Belt appears to run from the Tropic of Cancer, at 23°N, to the
Tropic of Capricorn, at 23°S.
The Belt consists of 28 small rectangles, according to the Magazine varying in length from 1
to 2 inches. However, a simple calculation shows the average length should be the circumfe-
rence/28= 2 inches! So, including their edges these vary from 1.5 to 2.5 inches. – The big
question is: “What would be the meaning of this mysterious Rock?” (Refs.1,2)
Discovery of America
The diameter of the Sphere is close to 4 micromoiras= 44.4 cm (1 Egyptian moira= 1°= 111
km). It refers to the 40th latitude line due south of the site. In Europe latitudes were already
known c.4800 BC, as shown in the megalithic monument of Barnénez, Brittany, France. Both
the diameter of the Sphere and this main latitude line encode the Fourth Dynasty when Ame-
rica was discovered.
The height of the Stone shows the Globe sits at a latitude of sin-1
[(36.8-22.2)/22.2]= 41°S,
which is roughly equal to the 40th latitude line on the Southern Hemisphere. It confirms the
discovery of America in the Fourth Dynasty. The Belt consists of a series of rectangles, each

2. of them having four equal angles (of 90°), confirming it many times. These refer to the cir-
cumference of the planet Earth of 4x90= 360°, because people wanted to circumnavigate the
Globe.
The complementary latitude line at 90-40= 50°N encodes the fifth King Menkaure (Myceri-
nos, c.2580-2562 BC), who accomplished this discovery via the southern Aleutian islands, at
the south side of the Bering Sea, at c.50°N (look at a map!). In antiquity the use of comple-
mentary latitudes was very common. The length of the 40th latitude line from coast to coast
across North America equals 50°, confirming it. – Note, the Stone is located in between both
mentioned latitude lines. (Refs.3-6)
The Sun Religion
At the equator the main latitude lines and meridians on a Globe form nearly perfect squares.
However, when progressing more to the north these are becoming rectangles. The 28 rectan-
gles of the Belt appear to indicate the 280° of longitude from the West Coast of Spain, at
10°W, “via China” to the site of the Stone in America, at 90°W, because 360-(90-10)= 280°.
Longitudes were known since the start from the First Dynasty in Egypt (c.3100 BC). So, it
appears the Stone indicates the length of a long Journey to the East, from Spain to Lake Supe-
rior across 280° of longitude.
However, the Globe is located at 47°N, which is the latitude of Cape Race, the East Cape of
Newfoundland and North America, 40° to the East. It would be the best departure point for
the Return Route, with the wind and the current, via the Azores to the Old World. The diame-
ter of the Globe equals 4 micromoiras, confirming it. The Globe sits on the 40th latitude line
of the Southern Hemisphere, confirming it, too. The rectangles have four equal angles (of
90°), confirming it many times.
It appears king Menkaure reached the shores of Lake Superior after a long voyage from the
West. He reached the center of copper mining in North America, after the many stories he
heard about this magical place. So, he founded a stronghold here. - He met Indians who ex-
plained him the geography of the continent of North America. They told him that Cape Race,
Newfoundland, is the East Cape of North America, which would be an excellent departure
point for Crossing the Ocean to the Azores. It can be reached from Lake Superior via the St.
Lawrence River.
The Belt runs from the holy Tropic of Cancer, at 23°N, to the holy Tropic of Capricorn, at
23°S, at an angle of 23° with the equator. - At midsummer day the Sun is at right angles abo-
ve the Tropic of Cancer. The slow northerly movement of the Sun turns into a southerly mo-
vement. So, people believe in the Egyptian SunGod Ra. Far in the east the Tropic of Cancer
crosses the River Nile. It is the center of the Southern Egyptian Empire, but also the center of
the Sun religion!
So, the 28 rectangles of the Belt indicate the 280° of longitude from the River Nile, at 30°E,
“via China” to Cape Race, the East Cape of North America, at 50°W, because 360-(30+50)=
280°. So, it appears the Globe indicates a part of the planet Earth, from Egypt to Newfound-
land across 280° of longitude. It appears all the Land on this part of the Earth will be ruled
according to the Egyptian Sun religion. (Refs.7-11)

3. North America under Egyptian Rule
All this Land includes the continent of North America. The Globe was placed in the center of
this continent. So, from now on North America will be ruled according to the Egyptian Sun
religion (c.2570 BC).
King Menkaure said that people had to believe in the Egyptian SunGod Ra. He said he him-
self is the substitute of the SunGod. So, from now on North America will be under Egyptian
Rule (c.2570 BC).
The Carved Spherical Rock near the mouth of the Brule River on the shore of Lake Superior
is a Declaration of the King of Egypt, which states that from now on North America is a
colony of Egypt, part of the Empire of Atlantis (c.2570 BC).
King Menkaure made the Globe of Flint (a very hard kind of stone: hardness of 7), but he said
it will be the last artifact made of Stone. From now on all important artifacts will be made of
Copper. This will be the end of the Stone Age. It will be the start of the Copper Age. These
copper mines will be exploited for the benefit of mankind (c.2570 BC). (Refs.12-15)
Most of South America under Egyptian Rule
The Globe claims the continent of North America from longitude 50°W. However, note, this
important meridian runs all the way to the mouth of the River Amazone. It means that all the
Land of America on the Northern Hemisphere is from now on under Egyptian Rule. It inclu-
des the northern part of South America above the equator, the Antilles, and Central America
(c.2570 BC).
The Belt runs from the holy Tropic of Cancer, at 23°N, to the holy Tropic of Capricorn, at
23°S, at an angle of 23° with the equator. - At midwinter day the Sun is at right angles above
the Tropic of Capricorn. The slow southerly movement of the Sun turns into a northerly mo-
vement. So, people believe in the Egyptian SunGod Ra.
The Globe sits on the 40th latitude line of the Southern Hemisphere. So, all the Land of South
America north of it, and from 50°W, was claimed, too. It included the center of mining for tin,
silver and gold just east of Lake of Poopó, near the present town of Potosi, Bolivia, at 19°S. It
would lead to the start of the Bronze Age (c.2570 BC)!
Discussion
King Menkaure reached America via the southern Aleutian islands. On a present Globe these
islands are located within a rectangle formed by the main latitude lines of 50°N and 60°N, and
by the main longitude lines of 170°W and 180°W (look on a Globe!). Its average width/length
ratio= 0.54.
The average length of the rectangles on the Belt equals 140/28= 5.0 cm. If the reported width
of the rectangles is correct, 1 inch= 2.54 cm, the average width/length ratio of the rectangles
on the Rock equals (2.54/5.0)= 0.51, which is very close to the calculated value. So, the rec-
tangles on the Rock refer to this very important location! It actually proves his discovery via
the southernmost islands of this archipelago!
There are 28 rectangles on the Belt. Note, that these islands are located 28° above the holy
Tropic of Cancer, at 23+28= 51°N. It means America will be ruled according the Egyptian
Sun religion! (c.2570 BC)

4. The average length of the rectangles on the Belt equals 5.0 cm, or 0.40+0.05= 0.45 micro-
moiras. It confirms the discovery of America by 5th king Menkaure of the Fourth Dynasty.
He reached the shores of Lake Superior, the future center of copper mining in North America.
He carved a Globe with a Declaration of the King of Egypt, which states that from now on
North and South America are colonies of Egypt, parts of the Empire of Atlantis (c.2570 BC).
