 		[RING] [HUNT] Eli Hunt. The Code. TLR-Cartography
OK, since we have new forum, we can enjoy the freedom of new threads Smile

So let's collect here things we've found out from the videos and podcasts of Eli Hunt.

For beginning, I've transfered all the cities we've found out
into google maps



Note: the first column is still unidentified, so also the numbers are very temporary.



http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=109759884955634556248.0004481554c94621e2c34

If you find some mistakes, pls report me. I'll update the map.

03-12-08 UPDATE
According wiki and pallada (http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=495584#495584) Delphi was the center of the world and omphalos system. So I've updated also Delphi

 		I'd suggest putting them in the same order as the Code
Code:

Athens    Thermopylae    Argos
Olympia   Eleusis        Elis
Thebes    Epidauros      Tegea


Also, I'm fairly certain the middle one is Eleusis.

 		Panhellenic Games
Ok. Thinking while typing.

We all know that we are dealing with the olympic games. Also we have been speculating in the pythian games, because of the lost sport, that deals with other things than just athletics, and we have received a clear hint "when you are ready to receive the data look to delphi". Delphi is where the pythian games were arranged. Now. The inscription "earth-shaker" and the occurance of the trident points us to Poseidon. The games that were held in his honour was the isthmian games.

If we are to follow this (as Kosmopol's excellent panhellenic map also suggests) we have to look for clues concerning the nemean games as this is the fourth of the panhellenic games. All of them arranged during the 4 year circle we know as an olympiad.

thoughts?

 		Re: Panhellenic Games
@Troag Lee, That's an interesting thought.

If we collect all the datas from your link,
here is kind of Panhellenic table

Code:
Name            Frequency         Place         God          Crown (Source: German wiki)

Olympic Games   every four years  Elis          Zeus         Olive branch
Pythian Games   every four years  Delphi        Apollo       Laurel wreath
Nemean Games    every two years   Nemea         Zeus         Celery
Isthmian Games  every two years   Corinth       Poseidon     Spruce branch

 		Now tell me, people, what crown does Ariadne have here (I suck in botanic sciences)



Laurel wreath or Olive branch?

 		Looks like laurel to me, but I'm not a botanist.

Would fit to that Delphi message

 		While the wreath depicted is actually plastic, I'm sure it was meant to represent Laurel (Think, Bay Leaves).

 		I suppose, since we know about omphalos, we can transfere it to our maps. So post here you maps about the the ring.
Let's use this thread as our cartography library.
