Martin Doutré was born in Altadena, California, USA, in December 1946, but was raised and had his formative education in New Zealand.
He has lived "back and forth" between the US, Continental Europe and New Zealand and has been educated in each region.
He first became interested in archaeo-astronomy in the 1970's and, by applying exacting surveying and measurement techniques, has made a close study of mysterious, New Zealand, pre-Polynesian structures. New Zealand is one of the most remote countries where standing stone circles and other types of megalithic structures are being found in profusion. Some markers served a calendar-related function as solar observatories and still work perfectly. They were used to determine the exact days for the solstices or equinoxes and keeping the calendars running true.
These are out of time and place, anomalous finds are causing many researchers to rethink the supposed, "young" history of the country. Cost to attend $5.00 at the door.
