Ancient holy labyrinth maze in 3D

thingiverse

Whilst visiting the University of Southern California Library in Los Angeles, I stumbled upon an ancient map from 1300 AD known as the Hereford Map. On this map, a meticulously crafted labyrinth is situated where Sicily should be located. I took a photo and later looked it up to learn more. It appears that the origins of this particular maze are shrouded in mystery. There's no record of its purpose or why it's featured on the floor of Chartres Cathedral in France, on the wall of Lucca Cathedral in Italy, or mysteriously located at other sites around the world like White Chapel in Texas. I've created versions with diameters of 100mm, 70mm, and 60mm. I also designed a maze inspired by Westworld, an excellent show that it is. If you find this useful, I'd be delighted to see your creations - please share them! Alternatively, feel free to donate a bitcoin or two to express your gratitude. You can include a note saying "Hi 3E8, thanks for the mystery holy labyrinth thing... my life is infinitely better because of it, and please accept this paltry amount in gratitude." You're welcome! Also, take some time to browse through my other submissions, which are almost as varied as they are numerous: http://www.thingiverse.com/3E8/designs Enjoy! September 24, 2017 update: I added a clean version without any bumps on the edge. April 22, 2019 update: Here's a 3D ramp version of the maze that allows a ball bearing to ride all the way to the center: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3581536
