Called America’s most mysterious monument by many, the structure of the Georgia Guidestones are referred to as an “American Stonehenge” by some, and the “Commandments for a New Age of Reason” by others.
At the center of each tablet edge is a small circle, each containing a letter representing the appropriate compass direction (N, S, E, W). One slab stands in the center, with four arranged around it. A capstone lies on top of the five slabs, which are astronomically aligned. An additional stone tablet, which is set in the ground a short distance to the west of the structure, provides some notes on the history and purpose of the Guidestones. A message clearly conveying a set of ten guidelines is inscribed on the structure in eight popular languages, and a shorter message, “Let these be Guidestones to an Age of Reason.”
Here are the most asked questions about this monument, its message, and the question of whether there’s any relation to “New World Order” and secret societies.
What are the Georgia Guidestones?
The Georgia Guidestones are an mysterious granite monument located in Elbert County, Georgia, USA. The monument is 19 feet, 3 inches (5.87 m) high and is made of six granite slabs, weighing in total 240,000 pounds.
These guidestones touch upon a subject that are often associated with a “New World Order”, specifically the claim that it suggests a massive reduction in population. Other parts of its message are also sometimes interpreted as to imply a one world government. But, is this really the message it is presenting?
The author(s) of the rules remain totally anonymous and their anonymity has been duly preserved. The Guidestones describe the ideal world, as envisioned by its creators.
Who Was the Mysterious One That Designed and Funded Georgia Guidestones?
Theories of conspiracy, occultism, and apocalypse surround this monument, and it has been called a “prism of meaning” by many who have studied it. In June 1979, an unknown person (or persons) under the pseudonym R. C. Christian hired Elberton Granite Finishing Company to build the structure. The structure was erected in March 1980.
