inferred link These pictures did not come with a source record of this formation. Each one is a single-photograph archive entry whose own date and place the index matched to this formation; nothing about the formation itself comes from them. The rule, the score and the evidence are printed with each record so the link can be checked, and the credit stays with the photograph.

Source records

What each source published, side by side. A row whose values differ across the sources is marked: the archive prints the disagreement rather than choosing a winner.

Texts

1 document(s), each attached to the record whose page hosts it. These are other people's words: quoted here in short attributed extract, with a link to the page that published each one in full.

Claims about this formation

8 claim(s) extracted by lexicon from the texts above, written by Temporary Temples. A claim row is a record of what an author wrote, with the sentence verbatim. It is not evidence about the formation, and nothing here is tested on this page.

Up to 3 quote(s) per type, verbatim from the document:

• “About this crop circle: Like a handful of circles in 2025, this crop circle has drawn a considerable amount of attention and controversy; with opinions varied as to its legitimacy.” comparison · Temporary Temples · source page
• “Close to Cerne Abbas” landscape · Temporary Temples · source page
• “The location of this crop circle, atop Buckland Hill, near Cerne Abbas, is very close to a circle which appeared in the adjacent field in 2018, next to the radio tower.” landscape · Temporary Temples · source page
• “There have been several circles around Cerne Abbas in years gone by and this present circle can be seen as a continuation of the relationship between the phenomenon and our ancient landscape.” landscape · Temporary Temples · source page
• “Please see the Geometry Gallery below for more details as we have them.” science · Temporary Temples · source page

Geometry

3 diagram file(s) on this page. measured from the diagram itself, and experimental: the extractor's rotational order is right on 88.8 % of a 200-diagram hand-labelled set against a gate of 90 %, so read a number here beside the picture rather than instead of it.

Experimental, and marked ≈ wherever it appears. These numbers are read off a drawing, not off the field: the extractor's rotational order agrees with a hand-labelled set on 88.8 per cent of 200 diagrams against a gate of 90 per cent, its element count is within one on 97.5 per cent, and its ring count is not calibrated at all. Nothing in the analysis tree is derived from the rotational order while that gate is unmet.

Diagrams that look like these: cc 63e31168 · tt 5e404c48— the nearest by perceptual hash. The whole archive is browsable by shape in the shape section, and this formation's own diagrams go straight into that grid: show them in the grid.
