I disagree with Bauval on most points but there's no reason he can't be generally correct.

It seems quite obvious that the Sphinx faces east to face the rising sun of the equinoxes.  The
pyramids are laid out according to the seasons as well.  The Egyptians were oriented toward
the south because that's where the sun was.  That they developed the calendar proves they
were familiar with the stars and some of this is mentioned in the PT.

There were older structures under G1 and probably G2.  There's no reason to believe there
wasn't an older structure at the site of the Sphinx.

Just quoting you for Harte.

Wiki: Stele of the Vultures

Now, stop quoting Cladking and Timespy.

Harte

LOL I'm (mostly) innocent for once. I had been replying to Aus in this case. There's some web page (Wiki or otherwise) that presents the Stele of the Vultures as an artifact from Göbekli Tepe, and more than one poster has fallen victim to it. It was Aus this time. I was hoping to track down the web page.

I have replied to cladking a couple of times but posted nothing of substance. It's a tiresome debate that was settled years ago. I'll try to behave better.

Oh come now where's the fun in that... besides after our last group hug with Harte I realized he's just a big softy... OK OK haven't ragged on Harte in a while so I had to throw a couple jabs out there so he knows we still care...

Oh my. Don't let Scott see this post... LOL. He'll tell you why bauval is wrong and he is right and Orion was the predestined design plan... we are looking into Pandora's box this very moment. Quick close the lid. Lmao

People can say what they want, but in my opinion trying to relate the 3 belt stars of Orion to the 3 main pyramids at giza is a false one

Here's another video about the Spinx.

What do you think about ancient geodesy and in particular this picture below.

To add something about fact, how everything is perfect so we could live here and perfect messures. Look at this golden ratio.

The Giza alignments to Heliopolis are well known but I'd forgotten about the same at Saqqara and Abusir. Now I remember reading about it years ago in a book about the development of the sun-god cult in the Old Kingdom. Yes, I suppose this is a good example of the principle you're describing.

But why? And more interesting how did they done it?
Sun god cult policy was that all aligments must have been to Heliopolis?

The so-called "Giza diagonal" as a group of 3  does not really align exacty like shown in that image as
Lehner has mentioned the line misses the  southeast corners of G3 by as much as 11 meters.

Yet people like Kate Spence, Magli ,Belmonte  have mentioned such alignments.

Again all the Sphinxs were place facing side ways in the monumemts of egypt, not as in front of ,even the dream stela. Clearly the Sphinx was place side ways for  khufu`s tomb.

To be honest I can't remember which pyramids in particular are arranged like that at Saqqara and Abusir. These two sites combined contain many more pyramids than the graphic shows. I also doubt the alignment is as perfect as represented, but the intent is there.

The reason is the prominence of the sun-god cult at Heliopolis, especially in Dynasty 5 and Dynasty 6. Pyramids are solar symbols, among other things. They're aligned toward Heliopolis because of the prominence of the cult there, and the overriding resurrection theme the site represented.
