Yinyaniso okanye iFiction?
Imigca ye-Ley yile, ekupheleni kwezona zinto, ukulungelelaniswa kweendawo. Ezi zi nokuba yimihlaba, iimbali okanye imbali-kuxhomekeke kakhulu kwiyiphi imfundiso yoluhlu oya kubhalisela kuyo. Okanye nokuba ngaba ubabiza ngokuthi "ii-leys" (sele sele "imigqa"), njengoko abafumanisi (okanye umvelisi). Ekuqaleni kweengcamango zamanqanaba ezilolu hlobo, ezizimeleyo (eziphathekayo) zendawo ezifana nezikhumbuzo zamandulo kunye nemigangatho yamagqabi, iimpango zendalo kunye namanzi amajelo afanelekileyo.
Le yile ndawo i-archaeologist engumculi u-Alfred Watkins exhunyene nento awabiza ngokuthi "iimilo" (ukususela ngo-1921, kwiincwadi zakhe "kwi-Early British Trackways" kunye ne "Track Old Straight Track").
U-Alfred Watkins kunye nokuThengwa kweeLay
Leli gama kunye nengcamango yethu yanamhlanje yemigqa ehambayo yaqala ngo-Alfred Watkins. Ngoxa wayesebenzisa imithombo yangaphambili kwaye wafunda malunga nokulungelelaniswa kwezinto zeenkwenkwezi zendawo zakudala (ezifana nezo zifunyenweyo, zithi, iNewgrange okanye i- Stonehenge ), ukujonga kwakhe ngokubaluleka kweBlackwardine yase-Herefordshire kwaqala ngowe-1921 kwaye kwakhiwa isiseko semfundiso yakhe. Bafika kuye njengoluhlobo lwesibonakaliso esingumzantya, kwaye wayenokungathembeki ekuqaleni, engaqinisekanga imephu yakhe yodwa. Ukujonga ukusuka kwindawo ephakamileyo, wafumana ukuba iinqanawa, iinqanaba, amatye amile, iminqamlezo yeendlela, izibonda, iinqaba zeentaba kunye necawa zamandulo (ininzi kwimigulana) zazibonakala zihambelana ngendlela eyenza i-track ecacileyo kwi-landscape.
Umgca owenziwe ngolu hlobo lubizwa ngokuthi "u-ley" nguWatkins ("imigca ekhohlakeleyo" ngoko yimizila ye-tautology ebomvu) -ininzi kwimigca efunyenwe nguye nje idlulela kwiindawo kunye namagama aqukethe isilagiya esithi "ley" ). Kwiingcamango zakhe, "ii-leys" zabekwa "ngabadoda" ukunceda abahambahambayo (bebekho amahlathi).
Ukuba ezinye iindlela zaqhubeka (kwaye ngokwenene ziqhubekile) kule miqulu yayingqina obuninzi kuWatkins.
Kuphawulwe ukuba iWatkins ibona njengendlela "yendlela yokunxibelelana" kunye nemigxina, akukho nto. Kufuneka kwakhona kugcinwe engqondweni ukuba ii-Watkins 'zazingekho iindawo eziphambili ezivela kwiLizwe lokuPhela ukuya kuYohn O'Groats , kodwa imicimbi yendawo.
Ukumiswa kokuSungulwa
Kodwa-ke, inkolelo yakhe yayibhujiswe ngabadala be-archaeologists kunye nabalwazi-mlando-ngokukodwa kwisiseko sokuthi iindawo ezisemaphandleni zihlolwe zininzi (mhlawumbi) izinto ezifanelekileyo kunye nokuba nayiphi na igridi ngokunceda ngokuphangaleleyo kwamaphuzu afakwe ngokungaqhelekanga iya kuba nenani elikhulu "ukulungelelaniswa". Eyona nto, ingxabano ngokumelene nemigodi iya kuhamba, inokuhle ibe phantsi kwehle. Yiyiphi "eyangqineka" yi-"leys leys" eyaziwa ngokuba yi-archaeologist uRichard Atkinson "efunyenwe" ngokujoyina amachaphaza abonisa ibhokisi yefowuni kwimaphu. Ingxabano ephikisanayo ingabonisa ukuba iibhokisi zeefowuni zigcinwa ngokubanzi kwindlela ezigqithiseleyo, ezinokuphinda ziqhube kwiimpawu zamandulo ...
Kule ngongoma: ngelixa u-Alfred Watkins 'iingcamango zamathambo ngexesha elifanayo elithakazelisayo kwaye elixhalabisayo, alizange libonakaliswe. kwakhona kwakhona akunakwenzeka ukubonakalisa ukungabi khona kwezinto.
Ukuhlaziywa kweNtsha
Nangona umsebenzi wokuqala waseWatkins wawungaxubusha ngokugqithiseleyo kwimigangatho emiselweyo emva kweminyaka embalwa, umdla omtsha kwiingcamango zakhe zafika ekuqaliseni kwe-Age of Aquarius.
Ngomnyaka we-1969 umbhali uJohn Michell owodwa wabuya wavuselela "imigqa ekhohlakeleyo" njengesihloko sokufunda, ngoku ngokuqinisekileyo ngokucacileyo kunye neNew Age twist.
UMichell wathatha i-theory ye-Watkins 'phantsi komhlaba ukuya kwinqanaba lehlabathi, exutywe kwidaysi ye-feng shui yaseTshayina (ubuncinane njengoko iqondwa okanye iguqulelwe eNtshonalanga) kwaye yakha ingqungquthela yokomoya engundoqo, eye yamkelwa kwaye yandiswa ngabanye abalobi abaninzi kwaye isetyenziswe kwimimandla yasemaphandleni nakwiindawo ezide kakhulu, ukulungelelaniswa kwamanye amazwe. Yikuphi, ekuhloliseni okufutshane kunye nokungathandekiyo, ngokuqhelekileyo kuhlaselwa ngokukodwa ngokubaluleka kokubhala imephu okanye i--reading problems (i-globe ayithethi, emva kwayo yonke into) kwaye uyaphuthelwa ingqinamba ngeekhilomitha (ngenxa yokulungelelaniswa kwamaphupha amancinci phakathi "kwamanqaku" ubukhulu bamazwe amancinci).
Nangona i-Watkins 'ingcamango ayinakugqitywa ekugqibeleni kwaye ingqina lobungqina bokuyixhasa, iingcamango zikaMichell (kunye nokunye okunjalo abo baninzi abangabonakaliyo ngabalandeli bakhe bokugqibela) bahlala bexhomekeke ekubalukeleni kwamaphuzu athile kunye inkqubo yenkolelo. Ukususela kwimibutho ye-archeology kunye ne-observation landscape, imizila ehamba phambili iye yaqhubela phambili kwiimeko ezinokwenkolo.
Leys Irish?
Ekugqibeleni nayiphi na iindwendwe eIreland inokubona ubuninzi beendlela zokulungelelanisa (kwindawo yangasese, iWatkins) -kuba ingaba oku kumakisha amanqaku amandulo, okanye ngaphezu koko, kuninzi kunokuba yintoni umbonayo ofuna ukukholelwa. Kodwa indlela eyonwabileyo yokuhlolisisa i-landscape-kwaye ungeke ukwazi ukuba yeyiphi indawo ekhangayo inokukukhokela kuyo.
