I was wondering after reading all of these posts, whoever there is a scientific query into something of this magnitude, it is typical to create a "control" so as to be able to refer back to a entity that you able to reference fully. Stay with me here...
So, with the earth being a relative sphere, and with all the power and money the yanks have wouldn't it be feasible to just build another Pyramid to study in the same place on the earth, just on the other side. I mean if it is worthy of all these theories, why not just build one and check it out?
Also I was reading about the time when the Pyramid had their original Limestone sheets on them before they where plundered. Well what the article was saying was that because of the angle of the walls and all and the way the Limestone was polished when you where a certain distance away from the pyramids you could not actually see them. As the limestone reflected the light to such an extent that they became "invisible" OH they were there but they were in the same sort of place as the F117 spyplane with the radical angles on that, radar ie sight was simply not reflected back to the person looking for them.
What do you reckon?

Chedster, I fail to see your logic. what could be learned from a replica that cannot be learned from the original?
Not sure to be honest, consider it a rush of blood to the head, Back in the earlier postings there were ideas about the resonance of air to create certain musical tones, there are the astrological potentials, also you could look at theories of "hidden" chambers etc, and then instead of digging around to find them you could actually go to them. Not sure here Datah just thinking aloud. All sorts of theorems could be explored with fear or recriminations of the Egyptians being pissed off at you.

looking for an extraterrestrial version of SETI
Q:
New to this thread (and the forums for that matter) but I like this discussion.
My question involves a topic an engineer made to me that I cannot check or find any substance for at least where I've been looking.
According to the engineer, the pyramids would have sank centuries ago if they'd have been built on sand, they were built on the hardest rockbed around. It would not have been easy for them to know. As recently as the 1950s builders in America were wrong about locations and put up buildings that partially sank. No kidding, an building near me on the river is making like the Titanic right now. Only lots slower.
Even better is that they earthquake-proofed the Great Pyramid. This is the part I cannot check or document. There are supposed to be 4 or 5 or 6 mammoth socket stones below ground level that the pyramid sits on. This way when the earth rocks and rolls, the stones take the motion and the pyramid stays in place. If not for them the GP would have crumbled long ago.
I wonder if this is true. Ifso the stones would have to be really huge.

Franz,
i have been researching this subject for the past twenty two years and I have never heard of the stones you speak of. I do however see your point that something must keep the Great pyramid steady. If you will find a picture of the GP East face, one that shows the shafts inside the pyramid you can see that the bedrock isn't flat. The builders left a very large part of the bedrock in place in order to stablelize the structure. As you can see the pyramid cannot move because of the raised bedrock. There was an earth quake that damaged the King's chamber long ago.

well seeing as there wasn't a generator there it would be approximately o.o volts per hour. Sorry I can't be more specific.

Marduk,
Are you Orthodox or Unorthodox. I seem to detect a reluctance in you to agree with things that doesn't bear evidence of being true. Now what say ye,
or ?
Reason #1:
Like 20th century bridge designs, the Pyramid's cornerstones have balls and sockets built into them. Several football fields long, the Pyramid is subject to expansion and contraction movements from heat and cold, as well as earthquakes, settling, and other such phenomena. After 4,600 years it's structure would have been significantly damaged without such construction.
Reason 2:
Only a solid stone mountain could endure the Pyramid's immense weight. And indeed, a flat solid granite mountain happens to be located just beneath the surface of the ground directly under the Pyramid.
boo ya!

I went to the link you gave but was unable to locate any relation of a ball and socket below the surface of the bedrock.
Please cut and paste the reference to the socket below the surface.

Yes that was my question too.
I should mention that the engineer was not pulling my leg or anything. The only place I have seen it offline is in Giza Death Star by someone named Farrell. This didn't seem a proper source to me.
But it was a diagram Farrell got from an older book and might have been speculation?
as to below?!?! i must of missed something in a prevous post.
it wouldnt need one. seeing as it sits on granite...............
oh in ref to the seti thingy seeing as the thing weighs a whole heck of a lot , i cant see it being a satalite.
My mistake, i thout u were talking about the sockets within the pyrmids
helping prevent the sinking of the structure as a whole, when i said they took in acoutn for everything i ment they knew they were on a solid rock base, which even knowing that spot is all most the center of the earth a good foundation is needed for every building, they ment for these to last. if u all want to know a bout the cornerstone ball and sockets i can provide more info.

If you want to call non existent by the word "circumstantial", be my guest. There is not a shred of direct evidence that the Great Pyramid was used or intended for a tomb. One thing I noticed while I was in Egypt . . . all of the known to be funerary items were without exception literally covered with carvings and inscriptions. Every damn one! And it was obvious looking at those places known to be tombs that the work on the tomb stopped when the Pharaoh the tomb was being prepared for died. The incomplete work is quite evident.
Now, as a professional engineer, I have no doubt that the Great Pyramid could have been constructed by means available to the Egyptians of the time . . . but I don't think for a minute that it could have been completed in the lifetime of any one pharaoh. No way, no how. And how archaeologists could ever have thought that a plain old stone box, with nary a single inscription, would have been in any way suitable to house the body of a great pharaoh is beyond me. That would have been a singular pharaoh indeed.

Well duh! That's why they built them there, rather than half a mile down the road....
The fact they built them where it was possible to built them rather than somewhere where it wasn't possible to build them proves only that they knew where best to build them
(Notwithstanding the possibility that the platforms on which the Giza pyramids were built may have been built for other purposes at an earlier date....
)
btw - I understand the Sphinx was built where it is in order to be as close as possible to the nearest McDonalds and KFC......

The answer to your question is simple
I am completely orthodox up until about 2500bce
Anytime before that my view would be considered unorthodox.
well would be considered unorthodox at the moment
I'm hoping to change that but as you know thats not something I can do from with a public opinion of me being unorthodox
so i bide my time and try to help those out who i can that are on the same path.

Around 5,200 years ago there was a small, but subtle, shift in global weather patterns. Until then, the Sahara had enjoyed several thousand years as grassy savannah, with plenty of lakes and rivers. It's believed that human inhabitants of that time were primarily nomadic herders. When the climate changed and the great drought began to dry up the Sahara, they migrated eastwards towards the one still reliable source of water: the Nile. Maybe they had already enjoyed trade with the tribes that farmed alongside the Nile?
From this merge of cultures arose the first Egyptian kindom.
