You may also be beginning to understand how geologists are able to determine how rocks were originally deposited. At this point, you are beginning to understand how rocks can record time. "If you understand the semi daily tidal cycles and the tidal cycles related to the phase of the moon, you can see how tides have affected the thicknesses of the layers in the delicately layered Hindostan whetstone beds. More about the research on tides can be found here, i posted this earlier: Whetstone Gravestones » American Scientist The stones were also used as a Tombstone on the graveyards. The space between those layers can reach from a few mm to some inches or less then 3inches.Īlso the coloration seems not be constant and ranges from a yellow, brown towards a reddish or even white coloration. Those layers do appear in different amounts (they can reach from 9 to 32 layers). The stones show tidal layers which were also used to research historical tidal movements. have the list somewhere, need to seach for it.Īs far as i remember all the historical sources named that the variances are quite big, The offered mostly two different qualities. Hindostan Stones were sold from nearly all the bigger Stone Quarrying Companies, Tool Makers and Trading Companies. This was from someone on srp doesnt say who or i would give them credit for this.
