Looks a bit like my lawnmower.
Funny, just yesterday I was looking at it on Google maps. "X" marks the spot.
It's the Twin Pines Mall, or Lone Pine, depending on the time.
With a little imagination, the Antikythera Mechanism became the dial of destiny:
The Antikythera was built by Archimedes in 213 BC and said to be capable of locating fissures in time. At some point after its initial creation, the dial was split in two with one half captured by the Romans along with the Grafikos, a cipher which led the way to the other section of the device that had been laid to rest with Archimedes in a secret tomb.[1]
Some months back I checked out the Hebrew title of the movie:
אינדיאנה ג'ונס וחוגת הגורל
It's the same as in English, but the interesting part is the phrase for the mechanism, "the dial (chugah) of destiny (goral)"
It's a word play on "Chag Purim", because the Megillah documents that the holiday was named Purim after Pur which was the lot (ha-goral):
Esther 9
24 Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is, the lot [ha-goral], to consume them, and to destroy them;
25 But when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.
26 Wherefore they called these days Purim after the name of Pur. Therefore for all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and which had come unto them,
Grafikos, a cipher which led the way to the other section of the device...
The Nazis are the modern "analog" to Haman & Sons.
Even the Apollo 11 ticker tape parade provided cover within this drama.
