  • Abstract
    More than the measure of solstices, the measure of the equinox presided over the understanding by the human being of its environment. It was the angular stone of construction and perenniality of a creative knowledge of big civilizations. Examples found in Corsica are placing this island in the heart of this search. We would try at Corte in July, 2006 to illustrate by our works the wealth of this debate to make sensitive and perceptible, in all, the importance of these knowledges in the measure of the equinox.
