Key Points

To establish a computational framework for testing the statistical significance of geometric overlays, such as phi-spirals and E8 projections, onto archaeological plans.
Extracted pillar positions and circle diameters from archaeological site plans.
Overlaid golden ratio (phi) spirals and 2D projections of the E8 Lie group rotated at 30° and 45°.
Assessed alignment significance using Monte Carlo simulations with a threshold of p < 0.01.
Demonstrated an automated workflow for mapping complex mathematical geometries onto archaeological layouts.
Applied a Monte Carlo significance cutoff of p < 0.01 to distinguish deliberate geometric alignment from chance spatial placement.
