Dear A2, It is amazing how much thought and time and energy you are spending on re-thinking the pyramids. It’s got to be one of the most fascinating subjects in the whole world. Your insights allow my mind to venture into new realms of possibilities. In my inventor’s mind, I keep coming back to the fact that the biggest structures mankind has built have been for power i.e. dams. The Great Pyramid of Giza was apparently the first one to be built and it’s absolutely perfect. All of Egypt seems to be the same, the ancient structures were perfectly conceived and things went down from there. What I believe is that the Great Pyramid of Giza was built to provide a power source for the people of its time stamp. There is evidence of heavy usage where door hinges were installed, etc. Something was going on there and experts in energy production have said it was for making energy. What has probably been absconded by the Egyptian officials is the library with books explaining everything. Will we ever know? The most fascinating thing to me is that no one wants to go there - to the power plant theory. Keep up the good work! You're doing a great service to man.

Hi Matt. I am from a village near Mount Nemrud. It matches with content. There are so many mysteries on this site. I suggest you look into this. Best wishes.
I used to work setting up manufacturing cells in factories. Many times we had to put things in areas that didn't make sense. The original work cells made perfect sense but when the job changed or went away, the space had to be repurposed for a job that didn't fit perfectly there anymore. That's great insight.
It is sad that no matter what is given we can only guess how these structures were built... but when we challenge ourselves and pose new theories, we get closer to the truth. And if we dont, at least we used our imagination and tried to solve mysteries!! I believe that the original builders of the great pyramid were trying to deliver a message. I believe that the egyptian authorities are trying to keep quiet about new discoveries and i hope we get to know the truth about giza in our lifetime because it is something that had puzzled me for two decades now... Thanks for this amazing new theory. I appreciate your effort
We've all seen the drawing of the overhead view of the Giza Plateau with all of the angles and sacred geometry it's supposedly supposed to be teaching us. So you should try to redraw it with only two pyramids or smaller pyramids and see if the dimensions make more sense

This makes a lot more sense. There were certain periods and kings that initiated large construction projects, mostly in later periods. The Sphinx's head was re-carved into a pharaoh head very late, at the end of ancient Egypt's existence. Maybe even a few times before.

Matt, put down the egyptologists books and go and interview structural engineers, Senior project managers and scientists in order to appreciate the scale of the design, and the execution of it.
Those folks know nothing about what the pioneering Egyptology researcher saw, learned, recorded, and analyzed. THEY are the horse's mouth. THEY were there and recorded it all. And you say to put down their writings? Not a good approach. You are thinking that mechanical knowledge can substitute for abstract thinking about issues unrelated to mechanical function, which is only a limited part of the puzzle.
Exactly. Modern engineers know they wouldn't be able to built that now, so it's was without a doubt impossible for ancient egyptians. Some much earlier more advanced civilization built all that, then was destroyed by cataclysm at around 12500 years ago. I can't believe anyone can take seriously that nonsense about pharaohs building that
It is really really difficult to guess how the pyramids were built but I do have the impression that the most massive pyramids were built in 2 distinct stages probably separated by a huge amount of times. Meidum pyramid and its tower-shape core gives us the best clue as to their construction, it is very likely that others were built the same way. When I look at Meidum pyramid I can see a very high quality and relatively smooth core surrounded by cruder and later limestone bricks. Of course all of this needs challenging.
It's so cool to look at these artifacts & plainly see that the Egyptians had an advanced knowledge of geometry & the proportions of beauty. You see this translated in Greek art, less so in Roman art, etc. It is more evidence suggesting the degeneration of knowledge of a once Great Civilization, like Atlantis. I love this stuff, thank you for all your research & efforts in this channel, Man.
Great view on Menkaure, I believe you’ve nailed it. Still think Khafre originaly was a trunkated one at half its height and that the core of khufu is older than any pyramid. A lot of things where left there to be discovered when they came waging war from the south. Arid climate and sediments flooding the Nile came gradually as did the huge constructions over aquifers which seems to have become a global technology a verry long time ago.
A fact mentioned by many is, the trouble the dynastic egyptians had scratching granite with their chissels, which is a way to distinguish what they built, from what they found already there.
Excellent review, perfectly structured reflection and excellently thought-out hypothesis Matt, as usual ! Late yeasterday I came across the short comment of "MrCripian" and your reply, concerning the presumed Cheops cartouche in the GP. Since the subject is quite burning and of great interest to me, I dug it deeper a few weeks ago and I found interesting elements about this matter in an interview of the German archeologist Dominique Görlitz on the German TV channel Nuo Visio. This scientist had been accused of having illegaly damaged this cartouche during an April 2013 visit he made inside the discharge chambers above the so-called King's room and sentenced to a 5 years prison term by an Egyptian court. in the wake of it. However, this accusation was fully fabricated by Z.Hawass and his henchmen, and the gentleman was declared fully innocent by the same court in 2015, thanks among other things images of the cartouches and their marks taken by Pr.Schoch in 2006 which were provided to him by R.Bauval. These pictures are the proof that the damages (4 chisel marks which can be seen on your video between 2.36 and 2.43) were made between 2004 (at this date another photo shows no marks) and 2006 !!! Here are the most important points put forward by D.Görlitz in his interview: - he indeed took some microscopic (

Pyramid seeds perhaps? One digs an underground chamber, then plants the pyramid seed. After some time time, a small pyramid will sprout. When cared for with long forgotten rituals, and lots of water, it will eventually grow. The great pyramid was built on a natural spring, so it kinda "cheated", and so it grew very large in a short time.
@@AncientArchitects Good luck mate. While they need a lot of water, i think they might create off-springs (literally) if given too much, like the small pyramids on the Giza place.
Great thank you! I think the great Pyramide was enlarged too. The Queen chamber was the original chamber. Thats the reason why the shafts from the Queen chamber dont reach the surface!
I have a question about the pyramids, if they were built in ancient Egypt then where are the ancient records and text about the actual building of such massive structures, it's not like the Egyptians are shy about their accomplishments
Duuuuude duuude duuude duuude😱😱😱, i cant contain the amount of hypothesis , your hitting me with💫💫 , but i waaaaant more , don't stop , this is so dam mind blowing.....💣💥💥💀
More excellent stuff Matt, if only there was a way to prove your theories, maybe in time and when the antiquities department come out of the dark ages things can be pieced together. Thanks.
If the pyramids were enlarged, which I find likely as I've stated before, I think 'stuff' might have had to give way for it. There might be subterranean chambers or even small pyramids that served as fundaments (why clear a pile of stones and erect a pile of stones in its place?). Moreover I guess that some other structures might have served as raw material, leaving their subterranean parts that were filled or sealed as they were no longer important. Both such structures would be evidence for a later massive renovation.
I hope one day we will have technologies to answer the mysteries at Giza. I'm stoked about the new muon scan being planned, for one thing. Smaller and lessintrusive robotics, microscanning of rock surfaces, and improved techniques for dating even smaller amounts organic matter are all going to be helpful.
I don't know if this supposition is correct, but it does seem at least plausible and logical to me that the structures had different phases and functions through history and, for example, it's reasonable to conclude the multiple entrances, etc. indicate multiple phases with multiple architects, as opposed to concluding one architect changed plans halfway through as if they couldn't plan things out beforehand.
Anyone that thinks that Khafre pyramid has only the bottom level passageways and openings is not looking at the big picture. I'm still with you on the origins of the reason for the building of the Great Pyramid. It was a reservoir, built with concaved walls to resist the pressure of the water. It also had a very large secondary wall around it to hold further water. That also explains the tunnels that swiss cheese the entire plateau. They were storing water.
Have you read the story of Joseph in Egypt? It will amaze you if you have not. Everyone should experience it. One of the best stories ever, and it could be the explanation for the storage of large amounts of water. It begins in Genesis 37. You can read it online. Some people believe that Joseph was Imhotep.
Very fascinating! Right or wrong about this or that, it is certainly interesting to hear of alternate possibilities to the Main Stream narratives which are baseless to say the least. BUT!... there's a serious problem that needs to be addressed, and it is the fact that inexplicably, not only is the great pyramid 8-sided, but so is the small one (Menkaure), leading to the supposition that it was built that way by the same builders for the same reason. So that fact needs to be factored into a new narrative, which seems quite difficult to do since no one has any good explanation for the 8-sided design, nor why it would be repeated many epochs later but not with the middle pyramid. Good luck with that task.
Ancient Architects How do you know that there are no more shafts to be discovered in the pyramid of Chephren? Because of what archeologists have told us? For all we know there could be a Grand Gallery in there, similar to the Great Pyramids, Red Pyramids, Bent Pyramids. Need I go on!!!
Brialiant as always. Epipheny... Slate clean, except great pirimid. Please excuse spelling very excited. Landscape: As per shock, green untill when. Then Savana, hence lions. Nile was at one time higher and closer the complex. So first bardge drop off spighnx. Later unexplored bay behind south west temple.

Making more coherent notes now and, as always Cheers
the two pyramids in the steele clearly indicate Menkaure and Khafre, not Khufu, which is more logically a later-comer in the order they were build. If you ran Egypt, you would build from small to large, and the Khufu pyramid is the most developed in terms of architectural design. Makes more sense that Egyptians worked from less complicated to more complicated...
from:Michel G Rabbat/Egypt.Amer./Florida: Building a tomb is under time constraint...ex: Saqqara Pyr. started as a simple mastaba over a v. complex underground burial site...even though its engineer went specifically to Philae Temple to study stone tech. of previous ages. Khwu-fu, architect hoped to build a pyr. but started with underground rooms at the foot of a hillock ,next made a mastaba of that hill cutting it into shape and quarrying stone from south area ...using steep slopes with sticks embedded on either side so stones could be rolled over smoothed palm-tree logs ...ropes pulled backwards around poles for forward movement of blocks..Mastaba finished ,,, next the corridor with same steep slope and pulling tech. to build "Queen's ch."...then the south-eastern part of pyramid , rising level by level , with every rise in level , corbelling was gradually done ...no need for either internal or ext. nonsense ramps . once block is raised to next level it was sent across the shortest way to build the southern edge of the pyramid while building "king's Chamber. " Next the Spaces above the K's Chamber ..layer by layer the south-east and southwest pyramid corners were reached...higher until the apex pyramidion is placed...then downward to complete the western and northern sides...half way down building the "entrance corridor" and building the passages and parts to the north and north east of the pyramid ...to completion...Architect had a "sword of Damocles" threatening (possibility of Khwufu dying) every single day. Luck brought the project to completion with the decorative Tura limestone ...that covered the ducts of the Queen''s and King's chambers...Modern ideas are off-point ... since they do NOT deal with the constant threat of the Pharaoh's possible sudden death. .
The Grand Pyramid was also rebuilt. It’s why there are matching ascending shafts in the King and Queens Chamber. The Queens chamber was first and replicated in Kings chamber when the pyramid was expanded.
Interesting. The main question I have is, - If the pyramids were created on this timeline and at these initial, smaller, sizes then how'd they end up being perfectly in alignment as a representation of the constellation Orion? From above, the size, spacing and alignment match Orion with a fair degree of accuracy. If they were created and rebuilt, out of sequence and over time, it would seem that they accidentally ended up matching Orion; which would be an amazing accident.
These videos are like me cataloguing my research - a bit like the journey of my mind... I’m close to putting it all in a detailed way in a book series.
The reason why many of the pyramid chambers are directly below the apex of the pyramid peak is because a chimney must have existed from the ground level up to the apex in order to suspend a plumb bob string from bottom to top during the construction of the pyramid in exactly the same way plumb bob are used today in modern architecture to insure perfectly vertical construction - if the pyramids are excavated accordingly the chimney will be discovered although it may have been filled in with rubble etc.
One has to assume that to maintain perfect alignment a dead-center line had to be constantly referenced in order to reconcile the four corner lines to each other. Otherwise they probably would have wandered out of alignment eventually. It's a case of perfection or great imperfection with not much leeway in between.
I like your idea in a newer video about how the Khufu pyramid had contingency chambers that were abandoned over time. Perhaps the same explanation suits the other two pyramids?
I am quite amazed by the quality of all your hypothesises, as they make way more sense than most of the official and/or alternative ones! Great work, keep stirring the pot! By the way, you say that the sun can be seen setting in between the two main pyramids, right behind the head of the Sphinx on the summer solstice. Is there any significance on that particular spot the builders might have chosen this as their focal point? Are there any temples or other significant monuments marking the spot?
I think your hypothesis makes a great deal of sense. The Great Pyramid has not been changed as evidenced by the 'creases' on each side which stretch from bottom to pinnacle and as you mention its construction and design is far in advance of the others. You comments on the Sphinx are also accurate in my view as the rock outcrop and obvious additions in order to make it into a lion or some other form confirm. Very good video and solid analysis.

Those folks know nothing about what the pioneering Egyptology researcher saw, learned, recorded, and analyzed. THEY are the horse's mouth. THEY were there and recorded it all. And you say to put down their writings? Not a good approach. You are thinking that mechanical knowledge can substitute for abstract thinking about issues unrelated to mechanical function, which is only a limited part of the puzzle.
Exactly. Modern engineers know they wouldn't be able to built that now, so it's was without a doubt impossible for ancient egyptians. Some much earlier more advanced civilization built all that, then was destroyed by cataclysm at around 12500 years ago. I can't believe anyone can take seriously that nonsense about pharaohs building that
Thanks for all your hard work!
Thanks for watching
Another great video.
Thank you
It is really really difficult to guess how the pyramids were built but I do have the impression that the most massive pyramids were built in 2 distinct stages probably separated by a huge amount of times. Meidum pyramid and its tower-shape core gives us the best clue as to their construction, it is very likely that others were built the same way. When I look at Meidum pyramid I can see a very high quality and relatively smooth core surrounded by cruder and later limestone bricks. Of course all of this needs challenging.
It's so cool to look at these artifacts & plainly see that the Egyptians had an advanced knowledge of geometry & the proportions of beauty. You see this translated in Greek art, less so in Roman art, etc. It is more evidence suggesting the degeneration of knowledge of a once Great Civilization, like Atlantis. I love this stuff, thank you for all your research & efforts in this channel, Man.
Great view on Menkaure, I believe you’ve nailed it. Still think Khafre originaly was a trunkated one at half its height and that the core of khufu is older than any pyramid.
A lot of things where left there to be discovered when they came waging war from the south. Arid climate and sediments flooding the Nile came gradually as did the huge constructions over aquifers which seems to have become a global technology a verry long time ago.
Great work :)
Much love from Salop.
Thank you
You make my mind work overtime thinking about the great information you provide. It's a welcome break from the world problems of today. Thank you.
Thanks
Your spoiling us !
😊
A fact mentioned by many is, the trouble the dynastic egyptians had scratching granite with their chissels, which is a way to distinguish what they built, from what they found already there.
Very nice work.
Thank you
Great telling mate.. I loved it
Thank you, Lee.
Awesome work, thank you 👍👍
Thank you
Excellent review, perfectly structured reflection and excellently thought-out hypothesis Matt, as usual !
Late yeasterday I came across the short comment of "MrCripian" and your reply, concerning the presumed Cheops cartouche in the GP. Since the subject is quite burning and of great interest to me, I dug it deeper a few weeks ago and I found interesting elements about this matter in an interview of the German archeologist Dominique Görlitz on the German TV channel Nuo Visio. This scientist had been accused of having illegaly damaged this cartouche during an April 2013 visit he made inside the discharge chambers above the so-called King's room and sentenced to a 5 years prison term by an Egyptian court. in the wake of it. However, this accusation was fully fabricated by Z.Hawass and his henchmen, and the gentleman was declared fully innocent by the same court in 2015, thanks among other things images of the cartouches and their marks taken by Pr.Schoch in 2006 which were provided to him by R.Bauval. These pictures are the proof that the damages (4 chisel marks which can be seen on your video between 2.36 and 2.43) were made between 2004 (at this date another photo shows no marks) and 2006 !!!
Here are the most important points put forward by D.Görlitz in his interview:
- he indeed took some microscopic (

Pyramid seeds perhaps? One digs an underground chamber, then plants the pyramid seed. After some time time, a small pyramid will sprout. When cared for with long forgotten rituals, and lots of water, it will eventually grow. The great pyramid was built on a natural spring, so it kinda "cheated", and so it grew very large in a short time.
I’m going to plant one in my garden. Wish me luck!
@@AncientArchitects Good luck mate. While they need a lot of water, i think they might create off-springs (literally) if given too much, like the small pyramids on the Giza place.
I feed miy pyramid granite and limestone
excellent research and thought
Thank you
Logical, and it was there all along, so obvious, brilliant !thanks
Great thank you! I think the great Pyramide was enlarged too. The Queen chamber was the original chamber. Thats the reason why the shafts from the Queen chamber dont reach the surface!
I have a question about the pyramids, if they were built in ancient Egypt then where are the ancient records and text about the actual building of such massive structures, it's not like the Egyptians are shy about their accomplishments
The more we (you) look the more we know, keep it up!👍😎
Thank you
Thank you Matt♥️⛰♥️👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼I like the falcon head theory 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼
Thanks Lynn
I really like the hypothesis that the great pyramid was an ark of sorts that allowed a species that faced impending extinction to live on. 🌚
dude ur a machine your knowledge is impeccable i love this i praise the day when we ALL teach our kids the truth
Thanks.... Been working hard last couple of months!
@@AncientArchitects it shows kudos bro
I NAILED the Hello Everybody timing !!!
a really good one !
Thank you
really great video and content
Duuuuude duuude duuude duuude😱😱😱, i cant contain the amount of hypothesis , your hitting me with💫💫 , but i waaaaant more , don't stop , this is so dam mind blowing.....💣💥💥💀
More excellent stuff Matt, if only there was a way to prove your theories, maybe in time and when the antiquities department come out of the dark ages things can be pieced together. Thanks.
Thanks Maureen
This makes sense and would explain some of the more mysterious internal design 'choices'.
If the pyramids were enlarged, which I find likely as I've stated before, I think 'stuff' might have had to give way for it. There might be subterranean chambers or even small pyramids that served as fundaments (why clear a pile of stones and erect a pile of stones in its place?). Moreover I guess that some other structures might have served as raw material, leaving their subterranean parts that were filled or sealed as they were no longer important.
Both such structures would be evidence for a later massive renovation.
Good video something to think about!
I hope one day we will have technologies to answer the mysteries at Giza. I'm stoked about the new muon scan being planned, for one thing. Smaller and lessintrusive robotics, microscanning of rock surfaces, and improved techniques for dating even smaller amounts organic matter are all going to be helpful.
This is still one of yer best ones
I don't know if this supposition is correct, but it does seem at least plausible and logical to me that the structures had different phases and functions through history and, for example, it's reasonable to conclude the multiple entrances, etc. indicate multiple phases with multiple architects, as opposed to concluding one architect changed plans halfway through as if they couldn't plan things out beforehand.
Thanks for your comment
Anyone that thinks that Khafre pyramid has only the bottom level passageways and openings is not looking at the big picture. I'm still with you on the origins of the reason for the building of the Great Pyramid. It was a reservoir, built with concaved walls to resist the pressure of the water. It also had a very large secondary wall around it to hold further water. That also explains the tunnels that swiss cheese the entire plateau. They were storing water.
Have you read the story of Joseph in Egypt? It will amaze you if you have not. Everyone should experience it. One of the best stories ever, and it could be the explanation for the storage of large amounts of water. It begins in Genesis 37. You can read it online. Some people believe that Joseph was Imhotep.
Very fascinating! Right or wrong about this or that, it is certainly interesting to hear of alternate possibilities to the Main Stream narratives which are baseless to say the least. BUT!... there's a serious problem that needs to be addressed, and it is the fact that inexplicably, not only is the great pyramid 8-sided, but so is the small one (Menkaure), leading to the supposition that it was built that way by the same builders for the same reason.
So that fact needs to be factored into a new narrative, which seems quite difficult to do since no one has any good explanation for the 8-sided design, nor why it would be repeated many epochs later but not with the middle pyramid. Good luck with that task.
This actually makes sense!
Thank you for giving different and new perspective on the pyramids without derailing too Aliens and wizards!👍🏼
From those IT things, you are one of the most valuable, and serious. DLF
I don't think they were tombs originally but used as such later on, there true function is a MYSTERY I would LOVE to know.
Ancient Architects How do you know that there are no more shafts to be discovered in the pyramid of Chephren? Because of what archeologists have told us? For all we know there could be a Grand Gallery in there, similar to the Great Pyramids, Red Pyramids, Bent Pyramids. Need I go on!!!
Do they let people in that one?
Looooved it!!! 😍
Brialiant as always.
Epipheny...
Slate clean, except great pirimid.
Please excuse spelling very excited.
Landscape:
As per shock, green untill when.
Then Savana, hence lions.
Nile was at one time higher and closer the complex. So first bardge drop off spighnx. Later unexplored bay behind south west temple.
The Nile Has changed and I think we are neglecting climate ( long term ) with different religions that may have doing up.
Apologies to all for my spelling mistakes.
Making more coherent notes now and, as always
Cheers
the two pyramids in the steele clearly indicate Menkaure and Khafre, not Khufu, which is more logically a later-comer in the order they were build. If you ran Egypt, you would build from small to large, and the Khufu pyramid is the most developed in terms of architectural design. Makes more sense that Egyptians worked from less complicated to more complicated...
Very clever!
Thanks
from:Michel G Rabbat/Egypt.Amer./Florida: Building a tomb is under time constraint...ex: Saqqara Pyr. started as a simple mastaba over a v. complex underground burial site...even though its engineer went specifically to Philae Temple to study stone tech. of previous ages. Khwu-fu, architect hoped to build a pyr. but started with underground rooms at the foot of a hillock ,next made a mastaba of that hill cutting it into shape and quarrying stone from south area ...using steep slopes with sticks embedded on either side so stones could be rolled over smoothed palm-tree logs ...ropes pulled backwards around poles for forward movement of blocks..Mastaba finished ,,, next the corridor with same steep slope and pulling tech. to build "Queen's ch."...then the south-eastern part of pyramid , rising level by level , with every rise in level , corbelling was gradually done ...no need for either internal or ext. nonsense ramps . once block is raised to next level it was sent across the shortest way to build the southern edge of the pyramid while building "king's Chamber. " Next the Spaces above the K's Chamber ..layer by layer the south-east and southwest pyramid corners were reached...higher until the apex pyramidion is placed...then downward to complete the western and northern sides...half way down building the "entrance corridor" and building the passages and parts to the north and north east of the pyramid ...to completion...Architect had a "sword of Damocles" threatening (possibility of Khwufu dying) every single day. Luck brought the project to completion with the decorative Tura limestone ...that covered the ducts of the Queen''s and King's chambers...Modern ideas are off-point ... since they do NOT deal with the constant threat of the Pharaoh's possible sudden death.
.
The Grand Pyramid was also rebuilt. It’s why there are matching ascending shafts in the King and Queens Chamber. The Queens chamber was first and replicated in Kings chamber when the pyramid was expanded.
So glad you covered this. I've been wondering all along, as I follow you and so many other researchers. Thank you for all that you do😎
Thank you for watching and following
Idk, my intuition tells me there is more to the Menkaure pyramid. That is a HUGE structure. I just don't buy that it is one chamber.
There are two chambers
@@Mateyhv1 ah! Yes
@@user-co4xl7wx3q lol, the writing of your nick is cool, how is it read and what does it mean?
Thank you!
Thanks
Interesting. The main question I have is, - If the pyramids were created on this timeline and at these initial, smaller, sizes then how'd they end up being perfectly in alignment as a representation of the constellation Orion? From above, the size, spacing and alignment match Orion with a fair degree of accuracy. If they were created and rebuilt, out of sequence and over time, it would seem that they accidentally ended up matching Orion; which would be an amazing accident.
This should interest you in regard to the Orion arrangement: sciencetheory.wordpress.com/2019/03/24/what-the-pyramids-of-giza-might-signify/
While I do enjoy these videos (I mean the format is very good), I think you should try and publish all this in writing at some point.
These videos are like me cataloguing my research - a bit like the journey of my mind... I’m close to putting it all in a detailed way in a book series.
I have changed my mind many many times but I feel that my views have grown as I’ve learned more and more. Soon I’ll tidy the channel up.
Nice one
Cheers 👍
"which give us the true history of the pyramids,in truth we do not know the history" love that part
The reason why many of the pyramid chambers are directly below the apex of the pyramid peak is because a chimney must have existed from the ground level up to the apex in order to suspend a plumb bob string from bottom to top during the construction of the pyramid in exactly the same way plumb bob are used today in modern architecture to insure perfectly vertical construction - if the pyramids are excavated accordingly the chimney will be discovered although it may have been filled in with rubble etc.
Interesting!
One has to assume that to maintain perfect alignment a dead-center line had to be constantly referenced in order to reconcile the four corner lines to each other. Otherwise they probably would have wandered out of alignment eventually. It's a case of perfection or great imperfection with not much leeway in between.
Awesome!! ☑️
I like your idea in a newer video about how the Khufu pyramid had contingency chambers that were abandoned over time. Perhaps the same explanation suits the other two pyramids?
I am quite amazed by the quality of all your hypothesises, as they make way more sense than most of the official and/or alternative ones! Great work, keep stirring the pot!
By the way, you say that the sun can be seen setting in between the two main pyramids, right behind the head of the Sphinx on the summer solstice. Is there any significance on that particular spot the builders might have chosen this as their focal point? Are there any temples or other significant monuments marking the spot?
I’ll check that out!
Wow amazing👍
Nice. Well put together, and said. Still wanting to know where your water-pump theory went.
The grotto threw me a bit with that. I never revisited it as I’m still looking for more evidence. The Great Pyramid function ties me in knots
Best post and theory
.In 30 years. xXTAWXx
Wow, that’s quite a statement. Thanks
I think your hypothesis makes a great deal of sense. The Great Pyramid has not been changed as evidenced by the 'creases' on each side which stretch from bottom to pinnacle and as you mention its construction and design is far in advance of the others. You comments on the Sphinx are also accurate in my view as the rock outcrop and obvious additions in order to make it into a lion or some other form confirm. Very good video and solid analysis.
Maybe that explains the relatively short initial construction time :)
👍
Are you being facetious
Thank you for the clarification.
