I have been studying various science and non-science theroies about the
Pyrimids of Gaza and am curious as to what others think of them.

I heard they was made by aliens...or 10 years of slaves being slaves and
building giant triangles. I like em tho!

Probablly Giza.

I was reading about how the pyrimids are positioned so that one could
take them for a map of certain stars.

I've heard that Adventure, I dunno if its true tho, cause the only time
I hear it are on shows like "unsolved mysteries" or somthing.

Even as a Christian the pyramids have always amazed me. I use to watch
things on TV (haven't seen any in a long time) about how that were built
way back then and how there were what looked like landing sites. I am
always amazed at the intelligence that had to be from someone, something
or somewhere to get these built. I would like to believe that there is
intelligence on other planets. It is very humbling to believe that God
made this whole big universe just for one planet.

They are supposed to line up with Orion's belt.

Aye but I was wondering what star or point in space is directly above
the Great Pyrimid at the point in time the shaft inside is lined up on
its target star.

AB if I am not mistaken they were aligned to match orion's belt as the
builders saw them at the time of the build. There is also a shaft
leading from the King's chamber to the outside of the pyramid that
aligns to the north star at the right time of year.

Aye but when that shaft is aligned what star or point in space is
directly above the apex of the pyrimid. My limited skills at astronomy
are not up to the figuring to obtain this knowledge.

More specifically I was wondering what part of our galaxy is directle
above the apex of the pyrimid on Dec 21, 2012.

Does this help at all?


In the third millennium BC, no star sat at the north pole. Instead, all
the stars in the north sky rotated around an imaginary point marking the
north pole.

Experts thought the ancient Egyptians might have watched a single star
circle this imaginary point and aligned their pyramid with the circle's
centre.

Alternatively, they might have measured north by tracking the path of
the Sun. Either way, the accuracy with which they mastered this should
have been about the same during the entire pyramid-building period.

But the accuracy wasn't constant, Kate Spence of Cambridge University
points out. Instead, the alignment of successive pyramids first steadily
improved up to the building of the Great Pyramid, then later
deteriorated. This makes perfect sense, she says, if the architects were
measuring the alignment using not one star, but two: Mizar in Ursa Major
(the Big Dipper) and Kochab in Ursa Minor (the Little Dipper).

Rewinding the astronomical clock using modern computers shows that the
two stars rotated around the pole opposite each other in the Old Kingdom
sky. In other words, an imaginary line joining the stars passed through
the north pole. When the two stars lay vertically above each other, both
would mark the position of true north for the pyramid builders.

However, due to precession, the line joining Mizar and Kochab only
drifted into precise alignment with the north pole in 2467 BC, then
wandered away (see graphic). The orientation of successive pyramids
faithfully tracks this drift,

Try this it explains the star positions and alignments with the shafts
as well.

Was a good web site but it still did not explain what part of the milky
way will be directly in line with the apex of the pyrimid in 2012.

If my rudimentary calculations are correct it will be pointed directly
at or close to the center of the milky way.

Wonder if the mayan 'cosmic flash of light' will be fielded by the
egyptian pyrimid. And what might happen without the concave capstones
in place to reflect it around the world.

AB, for what it's worth, there are no concave capstones on the Giza
pyramids....

There used to be polished limestones on the outside of the Great Pyrimid
of which I believe only a few have survived.

Analysis of those stones that have survived show that they were placed
in such a way as to creat a concave surface that would have reflected
sunlight out across the land and made the pyrimid blaze like a light
house whenever the sun was out.

Over the centuries those stones all fell off the main structure and
piled up in a debrie field at the bottom of the pyrimid.

I became interested about the possibility that there was another
possible reason for those 'focused' stones when I read the Mayan myths
about the 'creation beam' from the center of our galaxy which is
supposed to occur in 2012. I did some basic calculations and it does
appear that the apex of the Great Pyrimid will be pointed at the center
of the galaxy in 2012.

Here is a link to a new theory about the great pyramid...makes some
sense

http://www.gizapower.com/



Also...we never hear about pyramids in China...here:

http://www.areclinic.org/articles.asp?articleid=37

also heard an interview with Dr Paul LaViolette who wrote about
the Galactic Superwave and suggests that the pyramids were designed to
deflect this wave & protect the earth...??I can find
the interview link if youre interested

Hi, AB,

I've visited the Giza site several times and climbed the Great Pyramid.
The sides are flat, and the covering stones -- the ones I think you are
referring to, are also flat. I'm not sure there is any concave surface
there, or ever was. Of course, a flat surface can reflect a lot of
light and would certainly do so in contrast with the sky and land just
at sunrise and sunset. It is a pretty amazing sight, even without the
cover stones....

Yes oceans the single stones appear to be flat when you are looking at
them.

When all put together they have a concavity of 0.05% (to small to be
noticed by the naked eye). This concavity would create a concave
surface with all the 'covering' stones in place that would have
deflected a large portion of the incomming solar light from the verticle
to the horizontal. During the times when the pyrimids were completly
intact they would have stood out like beacons in the day time and would
more than likely have been seen far beyond the horizon.

Yes davinci I would be highly interested. It would fit with what I am
talking about. Perhaps this link you are talking about even has a more
accurate mathmatics than the crude stuff I did.
