Autorenporträt
Pétur Halldórsson bases his research on the work of the Icelandic scholar Einar Pálsson, who discovered this ancient structure of thought. The principal reference points of the measure involved were the motions of the celestial bodies and the cardinal directions. In fact the cosmogram was a projection of the Zodiac, anchored to prominent landmarks on the ground and the Sun's annual path around it.
