Why the ancient facination with the number 6? - why is 12 the number always used on alabama helmets
Enjoy a morning, for example:
Its original meaning was the size of a field measurement:
A Furlong, with a string. The first is 660 meters and the second is 66 meters! (Students --- glad you metric!)
In addition, the number 12 seems to have a certain significance for the ancients. No correlation there?
I have some information about what the 12th, but not at 6, and I would love to hear your opinion on this point, as always ... hm ... Enlightenment!

The number 6 is Thoth, the god of wisdom and learning.
The Number of the Beast is a concept, the Book of Revelation in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. The number 666 in modern biblical text, although recent studies have shown that the first known version of the apocalypse (from the 3rd century) 616 used. A manuscript 11th Century also demonstrates 665th This issue is a source of controversy for many religious groups and theologians. [1] Some scholars argue that the number is a code for the Roman emperor Nero. [
The number six is for Lucky in ancient Chinese culture and implies that life in perfect balance and harmony.
You can get all mystical and make sense of the numbers ... but my personal opinion that the religious or astrological significance attached to long * after * the numbers themselves is meaningful result.
There is a clear history of science fiction, of course, called Six Finger Time by RA Lafferty, to us the idea that when people from five fingers, an ancient race who have lived on Earth, had six fingers. .. . seems there are some things that say that the Nephilim (Genesis biblical word with the literal meaning of "Fallen") had six fingers .... Perhaps that's where Lafferty had an idea.
However, six is divisible by 2 a.m. to 3 p.m., of course, so if you simplify things in multiples of 6 of his mathematics. She is pretty andASY, the division of a length or volume of 2 or 3 parts of "customs value, do one after the other six to obtain.
Twelve is significant because it is about 12 lunar months in a solar year. Six is half past eleven.
If you are "projections" have a human male torso, you have six: two legs, two arms, head and penis. :-)
Insects have six legs. The bees' hexagonal cells in their hives. The ice crystals have a symmetry with six. You can put the plane with hexagons.
It is difficult to get a lot on his mind, without repetition - six are in the vicinity of the border. (Some say seven, some say, five, etc.)
You're right, it's a bit of fun ...
You mean the elders had six in their heads? Are there any remarks?
666 of reference to the Bible the Antichrist
In fact, seven of which have fascinated people in history, for example, the ancient Romans
Seven is considered lucky for them as number 13 in relation to the United Nations on the happiness of the world today
I think this is where the saying "Sixes & Sevens" is probably d '.
I think you're too much into something that does not exist. And America still thinks, with imperial measurements, is considered "old"?
For example, a stadium in the removal of an ox, a plow, drag it to rest, this is too. "A long groove. Already in the 9th C. was considered equivalent to the Roman stadium, which was one Roman mile 1:8, and then Mr. Furlong has been increasingly used as an English name for the eighth mile, when it coincided with the extent of the Board of agriculture or not.
Miles itself was originally the Roman measure of 1,000 steps of linear (or passuum passus thousand euros charged) to about 1618 meters. Therefore, the unit is from the This in the British Isles and other English speaking countries. Its length is much differently at different times and in different places, mainly because of the influence of the agricultural system of measures taken by the mile) in the relationship (Furlong.
The chain was often used by the mile to indicate land distances and in particular the land for commercial and legal. In medieval times, local measures have been adopted in general use, and many units, which were manageable units, for example, could the distance between London and York are expressed in inches, but the resulting huge amount would be the memory of man. The units on the ground are often inconsistent from one place to another. The Rev. Edmund Gunter devised a method of investigationIrrigated land accurately with low technology equipment that went as Gunter's chain, which was 66 meters long and the practice of using the chain is known, the word in the unit. The chain has over 100 dealers, and the connection will be used as a subdivision of the chain as a unit of length.
In countries influenced by English practice, land plans prepared before about 1960 with the sale of land have been formed usually in lengths of chains and links selected and plots in hectares. A rectangle of the country in a phase of chain length and width is an area of one hectare. It is sometimes suggested that this could be wrought by a man and start a family, a medieval plots, but no documentary support for the Acesrtion, and would in any case, the work to Gunter.
