Stone labyrinths along the White Sea coast near the mouth of the Umba River on the Kola Peninsula — where the Tersky Coast meets one of the most enigmatic labyrinth concentrations in the world. The White Sea labyrinths, numbering over 30 documented sites, rival Gotland and the Bothnian coast for density. The Umba River corridor connects the Barents Sea coast to the White Sea, a route used by Pomor settlers and Sami reindeer herders for centuries. At Giza bearing 2.13° — nearly due north — 4,088 km from the Great Pyramid.
