Congratulations... you just have completed the 100045678th theory about the pyramids. And, besides the fact that the highest advance in mathematics that the Egyptians had was the capability of multiplying and calculating the base surface of a triangle, what does this prove. Or, what is it good for?
Well, Alien, and I hope you don't mind me addressing you by your first name, the difference between this theory and the other 100045677 is that this one actually provides a plausible explanation for heights of the pyramids of Cheops and Khafre. As you may have noticed, 280 cubits is a rather odd number to arbitrarily choose as the height for the Great Pyramid. Why not, say, a nice round 300 cubits? And why 274 cubits for Khafre's pyramid, an even odder number? Can you show me ONE other theory which plausibly answers that question?
In regard to "what is it good for". It's good for answering one of the greatest mysteries on Earth, why are the Giza pyramids sized and positioned as they are? Now, you may not think solving one of the greatest mysteries on Earth is of any significance, but I think a few other people may find it significant and interesting. That was who my web page was designed for. Does that meet with your approval, Alien Embryo?
