Lesson 3
land for the past six thousand or so years. As the descendants of NOá were being born,
and as they grew and developed, they learned some things about navigation. This
knowledge plus knowing their responsibilities concerning the "replenish the land" part
of GoD's instructions to NOá and his group, resulted in the formation of this ancient
system for distributing the land.
The dashed lines define and separate the individual grids that formed the system. The
theoretical configuration of the individual grids is shown below. Because of factors such
as rough terrain in some areas, the lack of sophisticated land measuring tools, and the
varying intellectual achievements of the thousands of individual descendants of NOá
who partook in establishing the grid system; the actual configuration of the man-made
grids on the actual surface of the earth, couldn't match the theoretical configuration of
the grid as it is shown below.
Each grid contained 665 units of land. The units were numbered consecutively from one
to 665. Since there were 665 days in the name-number calendar, and each individual grid
contained 665 units of land, the number of everyone's name matched a number on one of
the grids. A person could claim a piece of land on one of the grid units having a number
matching the number of his or her name.
Numbering the Units
The methods of numbering the units varied according to geographic location and
ancestry. Only five counting methods are known at this time; they are described below.
The Common Grid - east
The counting system used in the lands east of the Euphrates river is shown below, and is
referred to in this lesson as the "Common Grid - east". Counting began at unit one, the
southeastern most unit, and moved to the north until unit 19, the northeastern most unit.
It continued northward from unit 20, which was located one unit to the west of unit one,
and moved northward to unit 38. Unit 38 was located one unit west of unit 19, The count
continued in this manner until unit 665, the northwestern unit.
The circle on the grid map above shows the numbering arrangement of the four grid
units at their junction point. The yellow units at the southeastern corners of the grids
each represent unit one of a grid. When the numbering reached unit 665, it began again
at unit one on the next grid to the west. Please, remember that counting is done in
cycles of 665 units.
The Common Grid - west
The units West of the Euphrates were numbered as shown on the grid below. The count
began at the northeastern unit, which was unit one and continued southward to unit 19.
In this diagram, the yellow unit designates unit one of a grid. The grid map shown below
shows the unit counting system on the Common Grid - west.
The EJyPT or JAPeT Grid
The Ejypt grid, possibly the JAPeT grid, began the count one unit south of JAPeT, which
was number 646 of the Common Grid - west, and moved southward to unit 19. Unit one of
the EJyPT (or possibly JAPeT) grid is identical to unit 628 of the Common Grid - west. This
unit counting method is shown on the below grid map.
The KANáaN Grid
The users of the KANáaN grid started the count at the unit south of KANáaN's unit, which
was number 421. Unit 1 of the KANáaN grid was identical to unit 422 of the Common Grid
- west. The below grid map shows the unit counting system on the KANáaN grid.
Comparing the Theoretical Map to the Actual Map
The suspected locations of the original settlements of some biblical persons are plotted
on Map 1B according to the number of their names, and according to their family method
of plotting the numbers of the units. Lines are drawn connecting the site locations on
the theoretical map shown below. The sites on the actual map shown at the bottom of
this lesson, that are predicted to match these sites, are also connected by lines. The
lines connecting the supposedly matched locations on the two maps are
theoretically the same line. The points of intersection of the lines connecting the sites
connecting lines and the grid boundary lines, which are identified as A, B, C, and D on
Map 1B, are scaled onto the actual map. These points are connected to form the grid
boundary lines, and an overlay of the theoretical grid onto the actual map. On the maps
below, the green and orange dots were located using the method described above.
Western Portion of the Map
Eastern Portion of Map
Just a reminder - the numbers of the names of the 21 sites shown on this map were
calculated by methods independent of anything having to do with this lesson. These
methods were described in previous lessons. The numbers were plotted on the grids
according to the rules shown earlier in this lesson, and Map 1 was drawn using the
results of this plotting. The locations of the Map 1 grid boundaries were calculated and
positioned onto an actual map. The results appear above. The actual results match the
predicted results. That means there’s a chance that the system being described in this
blog was a real thing.
Oh! One thing is obvious on the map. The logic used to locate BAGDaD needs to be
re investigated. Its location on Map1b does not place it where it should be on the real
map.

The names shown on the grids described below will be used in this lesson to overlay the
grid system on an actual map of the same area. The numbers of the names used as
examples are shown in parentheses following name. To verify calculations of the
numbers of these names, click on the name.
Explanations ---
MADII (377) - The resemblance of the consonant sounds, M and D, in the names MADII
and HaMaDaN, and the suggestion of biblical experts that MADII settled on the Iranian
plateau, in the area between the Elburz and the Zagros mountain ranges. Hamadan is
located in that area.
REU (666 or 1) - The similarity of the consonant sound, R, in both REU and Ur of the
Chaldeez, The area is a logical place for REU to have settled.
NiMRoD (294) - The biblical name matches the actual map name.
QALá (275) - The biblical name matches the actual map name.
ELaM (430) - This biblical name shares the same number as SUsá (430). Furthermore,
SUsá is traditionally known to be the capitol of the ancient kingdom of ELaM.
Sharqat and Ashur - The sound/numbers the names Sharqat and Ashur, both tally to the
number of SeM's name, and all three plot at that site.
**Note: MeSoPOTAMía and SeM also share the same number. Mesopotamia supposedly
means the land between two rivers, and the assumption is that the two rivers are the
Tigres and the Euprates rivers. Ash Sharqat, which also shares SeM's number, is located
between two rivers -- the Big Zab and Little Zab rivers.
**Note: Accad and Baghdad - The location of ancient Accad remains a mystery today.
The number of the name of Accad, the son of Nimrod, plots one unit south of Bagdad.
Bagdad is probably located on the original site settled by Accad.
Haran plots at the location of Harran. Biblical tradition also equates the two names.
**Note: Archaeological records mention GiRGaS, who was a child of KANáaN, as having
been a resident of Ugarit.
Khirokitia, the 6000 year old site located on the island of Cypress, is identified as the
oldest site on the island. The number of the name, QíROQíTía, matches the number of
the name of KíTTíM, who was a child of JAVaN, the son of JAPeT, the son of NOá.. Both
numbers plot at the location of Khirokitia.
EBLá - SeM was the father of the children of EBeR (Gen. 10-21), so, according to the
aRPaHSaD code, the E sound in PELeG's name should amount to SeM's number, 340. If
the E in EBLá also amounted to SeM's number, PELeG and EBLá would share the number
373 -- PELeG=0+340+30+0+3=373, and EBLá=340+2+30+1=373. That number plots at the
actual site of EBLá. Furthermore, the grandfather of EBLá was RiSí, according to the Los
Angeles Times article that announced the discovery of EBLá. RiSí=200+0+300+5=505
matches the number of PELeG's great-great-grandfather, aRPaHSaD. The Italian
archaeologist who discovered EBLá, suspected some link between EBLá and EBeR.
SIHeM=400+164+1+0+40=505 according to the ABRaHaM sound/number code. The
I and H values in the ABRaHaM code were I=TERá=164 and H=1. SIHeM is one of the
stops made by ABRaM after leaving HARaN. The number, 505, links SIHeM to DaMaSQuS.
DaMaSQuS=4+0+40+0+300+105+0+300=84 is the KANáaN grid number that converts to 505
on the common grid west.
ABRaM's partner, Eleazer, joined ABRaM in SIHeM. íLaEZeR (5+30+0+505+7+0+200=82)
is a man of DaMaSQuS, so the E value is 505. íLaEZeR joined ABRaM, because they had
identical numbers, and were headed for the same unit of land. All of the reasons
mentioned above are hints that SIHeM is DaMaSQuS, or SyRia, the common grid - west
name for DaMaSQuS.
