建築の正確な縮尺図面が約9,000年前に存在。ヨルダン 9,000年前、サウジアラビア 8,000年前の石碑には動物捕獲用の罠「砂漠の凧」が描かれていた。空撮も無い時代に3Dを2Dに変換する能力が存在。これまでの最古縮尺図は約4,300年前メソポタミアだが今回ほど正確ではなかった。 https://t.co/x6rCMirsLh

"The engravings... [~]7,000 to 8,000 years old, are precise plans for nearby structures archaeologists call “desert kites”—converging lines of piled stones that were probably used to drive wild herds of gazelles and antelopes into pits at their corners." https://t.co/HNyIoy4zc1
