Was looking up 'Celtic crosses' the other day (project unrelated to Bessler) and found out that they're not just religious symbols or gravemarkers, but also a very old tool for finding angles. The picture from the site shows how it was used, and it looks a heck of a lot like the 'pendulums' in all of JB's drawings. Maybe they're not pendulums at all, but measurements indicated by depicting them in illustrations of an ancient tool......
