The proposed study was devoted to the analysis of the scheme of dimensional and geometric ratios of the circle of stones in Clava and is a kind of continuation of the topic raised in our previous publication, analyzing such megalithic monument as "calendar circle" in Nabta Playa. Like the previous study, this one relies on the application of some prime numbers, most commonly 37, but also others related to the "Cupola Algorithm's" sequence of numbers. The article shows that the creators of the circle in Clava were well acquainted with the methods of precise geometric constructions, and with the ancient Egyptian system of linear measures, in addition, the dimensions of this circle with a high degree of probability is the allusion at the dimensional and geometric features of the Cheops pyramid.
