Pillar 3 in the daytime

Pillar 3 contains a cipher with hexagonal letters of the DNA molecule base pairs (Not transcribed and Unsolved), a star-based cipher (Not transcribed and Unsolved) and a series of numbers around the bottom which probably form part of a cipher (Unsolved).

Hex Code

An example of the hex code

The hexagonal glyphs represent the letters of DNA: G, A, T, C - compiled in pairs as in DNA.
