Jeff Belanger: 新波特塔是一个古老的结构,其原始功能备受争议。有人认为它曾是一个风车,也有人认为它可能是维京人建造的教堂。塔上的孔洞可能被用作太阳历或暗箱,用于标记特定事件或投影外部景象。尽管考古证据表明它可能是在1600年代由本尼迪克特·阿诺德州长建造的,但关于其起源的谜团依然存在。 Ray Auger: 我理解新波特塔的古老与现代交融的感觉,就像一幅画慢慢显现出来。塔上的孔洞可能是设计的一部分,而不是损坏。尽管风车的理论最为合理,但塔的顶部曾经有某种结构,这可能是解答其功能的关键。

In Episode 383 Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger investigate an ancient stone tower in the heart of Newport, Rhode Island. Some suggest the tower was once an early colonial windmill, others believe maybe it was built by Vikings centuries before Columbus, or maybe it served a more esoteric function as both a solar calendar, or maybe even an ancient camera obscura.
