Megalithic geometry (also called 366-degree geometry) is the name given to an hypothetical geometry supposedly used and perhaps created by the Megalithic civilization of Britain and Britanny, France.
This geometry, whose origin goes back to c.3000 BC, would have used a 366-degree circle rather than a 360-degree circle as we do today. According to British writer Alan Butler, 366-degree geometry is linked to the Phaistos Disc, an earthen artifact discovered in Crete in 1908, which could have been a Minoan calendar based on a 366-day year, the Phaistos Disc having 30 divisions on one side and 31 on the other: indeed, a calendar alternating 30-day months and 31-day months would result in a 366-day year.
According to Butler, this calendar would have been working on 40-year cycles, because a 366-day calendar gets exactly one month late in 40 years.
