A modern stone labyrinth near the airport on St Mary's, the largest of the Isles of Scilly, named after the nearby Iron Age fortification known as Giant's Castle. The promontory fort, dating to the 3rd-2nd century BCE, commands views across the island cluster and may have served as a signal station for the ancient tin trade. At 316.13° Giza bearing, St Mary's shares the precise alignment of the Scilly labyrinth cluster. The islands' archaeology is extraordinary for their size: Neolithic chambered tombs, Bronze Age entrance graves, Iron Age villages, and Roman-era artifacts all compressed into 16 square kilometers. The labyrinth's placement near Giant's Castle connects modern sacred geometry practice to the island's millennia-old ritual landscape.
