Has anyone visited the "other" real world omphalos, At the isle of dogs. The mythical birthplace of the British empire, conjured into being with a blood sacrifice, performed by John Dee, on behalf of Queen Elizibeth I who (so the myth says) was present.
"Stubborn rumor has it that the conjuring was done on the Isle of Dogs, just north of the Thames in the east of London. The exact spot is allegedly marked by a mysterious stone circle, tucked away near an elder grove in the northwest corner of Mudchute Park"
now this place is rumoured to sit on lay lines, which intersect with many buildings and areas of significance with London, and indeed beyond. This part made me dust of the bacofoil...
"Literally. The stone circle sits on a line that connects a great number of locations with special significance. According to some, that makes it the omphalos, Greek for “navel,” of the British Empire. And that “ley line” – the term for a straight line between prominent landmarks infused with an ‘energy’ of some sort – intersects rather curiously with another one, which links to two major buildings by Sir Christopher Wren
To the north, the line passes through St Anne’s Limehouse, one of six churches designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor — and, in fact, right through a mysterious pyramid standing just outside the church building. Its purpose is unknown. It is not a tomb. And it has “Wisdom of Solomon” carved into it.
To the south, the line passes exactly between both wings of the Old Royal Naval College, right on the south bank of the river in Greenwich. It is on the spot where once stood Placentia Palace, the birthplace of Elizabeth I. A bit further south, it passes through the Queen’s House.
The line crosses the Prime Meridian right next to Greenwich Observatory, where that meridian was established. It touches the statue of General Wolfe, who defeated the French at Québec and won Canada for the British.
Also quite remarkable: there were two working nuclear reactors on the line, a few miles apart, on either side of the omphalos. One for research at Queen Mary’s College, which was moved to Stratford in the 1980s — until it had to move from there as well, to make way for the Olympic Park for the 2012 Games
if you extend it thousands of miles further north, it passes through the area, now in Canada, where the British were looking for the Northwest Passage. At that time, finding that fabled waterway to Asia was more important to them than actual colonization."
A passage through which to sail through previously permit locked Canada?
Sol stairways theorum mentions laylines within the game. There is SOME evidence for this.

John Dee was partial to a bit of name numerology...
Find the omphalos, follow the road?
Use the real world as tracing paper?
possibly nothing, but it just seems that in someway it might be a clue. We know MB and DB where and are wonderfully interesting and eccentric people, who probably were aware of this myth.
I'll go back to sleep now...
