1 WHO BUILT THE PYRAMID (TWO BASES OF THE PYRAMID) 2009 A.D.

2 ALIENS (ANGELS) CAMP IN THE BIBLE Christian 8-pointed star from Byzantine church discovered at Shiloh And Jacob departed for his journey; and having looked up, he saw the host of God encamped; and the angels of God met him. And Jacob said, when he saw them: -This is the camp of God. And he called the name of that place Encampments*. (Septuagint, Gen.32,1-2) * Heb. Mahanaim 2

3 WHO BUILT THE PYRAMIDS? The Great Pyramid at Giza Egypt is the largest stone building ever constructed on Earth. The Great Pyramid is located at the center of the land mass of Earth. The architect(s) had advanced science and geography data and knew the size and shape of the continents on a global scale. The basic dimensions of the Pyramid also include measurements of the size and shape of the Earth. In the period BC man did not have the tools or knowledge necessary to build the pyramids. Who built the pyramids? Aliens or men? The best answer is: aliens (angels) and men. Granite in the King's Chamber Quartz occurs abundantly in many rocks, including granite. On a hardness scale (Moh's relative scale) of 1 to 10 (talc at 1, a penny at 3, a knife at 5.5, glass at 6, and a diamond at 10) most granite is rated between 6 and 7. Because of the hardness of minerals that make up granite, it requires diamonds along with water to cut and polish granite. 3

4 Has it ever been demonstrated that copper or bronze can cut granite? Never! Why? Because that is impossible! The Kings Chamber (and the Coffer) is constructed of large blocks of granite. 4

5 "The basalt pavement is a magnificent work, which covered more than a third of an acre. The blocks of basalt are all sawn and fitted together; they are laid upon a bed of limestone..." (F. Petrie, The Pyramids and Temples of Gizeh) Hot molten basalt lava in the Temple of metrology was placed on the limestone surface. When this lava cooled down it was cut into blocks. On the above pictures it perfectly shows the connection between the basalt lava and the limestone. Is there any egyptologist, archeologist or architect who will explain all these methods of construction? No, they are quiet and mute because they do not have the answer. When all of them are silent nobody else will even start to think about all this. ORIGINAL ARCHITECTURAL DIMENSIONS Socket: casing-stone in average corner-socket (The Pyramids and Temples of Gizeh by W. M. Flinders Petrie, Pl. XI) 5

6 Architectural dimension of the Gr. Pyramid's socket sides: inches. F. Petrie: Socket Sides: N inches E inches S w (The Pyramids and Temples of Gizeh by W. M. Flinders Petrie, page 38) The original architectural size = Petrie s measured size (eastern side) = Difference between the original and measured size = 0.25 inches = 0.635cm = 6.35mm PYRAMIDOLOGISTS VS PYRAMIDISTS Figure Figure 2 What is the base? A base is foundation: lowest support of a structure. The Great Pyramid was built on the base of the ground's solid rock (red line, Figures 1-2). What is the height? The vertical dimension of extension; distance 6

7 from the base of something to the top! What is the real height of the Great Pyramid? It is height above ground level of the base to the top of the Pyramid, vertical distance from the base of the pavement to the top of the Pyramid. Pyramidists*: the original base of the Great Pyramid casing on the platform (pavement), is of these dimensions inches: N E S = 23,036.53cm W Mean F. Petrie: Socket Sides: N E = 23, cm S W (The Pyramids and Temples of Gizeh by W. M. Flinders Petrie, p. 38, 39) Pyramidologists**: original architectural dimension of the Gr. Pyramid's socket sides: inches = 23, cm *A pyramidist is an Egyptologist who specialises in the study of the pyramids of Egypt, a specialist on the Egyptian pyramids from the archeological standpoint. **Pyramidologist is a scientist who deals with the Great Pyramid's scientific facts that correspond with the biblical truth. 7

8 TWO BASES OF THE PYRAMID... Figure 1 Tangent β = First base (red line, Figure 1) = sacred cubits = inches = 23, cm = m 23, = cm = 2AB 23, = 23, cm = m = length of the Second base (blue line, Figure 1) : 2 = cm = AB = inches* x = cm = d = inches** C = cm = 2 x Figure 2 8

9 d = : 2 = cm C = cm 4C = cm : = ² = x = 26, cm = sacred cubits = 10, inches = 25 lengths of the King's Chamber. Symbolism and facts: Length of the First base in centimeters = 23, cm Length of the Second base in centimeters = 23, cm Difference between two bases = cm Length of the First base of the Great Pyramid = sacred cubits = days = 1 year : = : = days x = x = : = sacred cubit = 63.5cm : 63.5 = = Pi 9

10 1 inch = 2.54cm : 2.54 = x 4 = = 100Pi These measurements and numbers can only be found if we use the metric system. The ancient Egyptians did not know of the metric system, which means that they were not the builders of the Great Pyramid. What do you think, who was the architect who was familiar with the metric system during that ancient time? * "Therefore, when reducing my observations, after the first winter, I found that the casing on the North side (the only site of it then known) lay about 30 inches inside the line joining the sockets..." (F. Petrie, The Pyramids and Temples of Gizeh, p.37) ** "In computing the above quantities, I have used my final determination of the socket levels below the pavement; these, with the first approximate results, and Inglis's figures, stand thus: Accurate in Approx in Inglis in 1865 N.E S.E inches S.W N.W " (F. Petrie, ibid. p. 40) And in 1869, when the Royal Engineer surveyors (of Great Britain), returning from the Sinai survey, went (according to orders) to the Great Pyramid, and announced, through their colonel at home, that the mean length of side of its square base from socket to socket, was 9130 British inches. (P. Smyth, Our Inheritance in the Great Pyramid, London 1874, p. 32) 10

11 AMAH OR SACRED CUBIT Biblical amah or sacred cubit = 25 inches = 63.5cm The renowned physicist Sir Isaac Newton postulated the length of the sacred cubit to be between and inches as distinct from the profane cubit of inches that he believed was the measurement employed by the Egyptians in construction of the Great Pyramid. Newton s calculations are the subject of his De magnitudine cubiti sacri. An English translation of that essay titled A Dissertation Upon the Sacred Cubit of the Jews and the Cubit of Several Nations: in which, from the Dimensions of the Greatest Pyramid, as taken by Mr. John Greaves, the ancient Cubit of Memphis is determined was published in the Miscellaneous Works of John Greaves, Professor of Astronomy in the University of Oxford, ed. Thomas Birch, II (London,1737), Amah = sacred cubit Amah = hamah = one of the three words for the Sun. The distance from the Earth to the Sun = 149,597,870 km = 1 Astronomical Unit (1 AU) = S-E Radius of the Sun (R) = 695, km 11

12 Tangent β = Length A-C = 1 sacred cubit = 63.5cm Earth's equator (length) = 40, km Equator = circle = 360 = 21,600 minutes 40, : 21,600 = km 1 (Equator) = km 1 : = 1cm on the particular drawing = cm in the realty A-C = 1 sacred cubit = 25 inches = 63.5cm Circle Z (circumference) = cm Diameter of the Circle Z = cm Radius (R) of the Circle Z = cm : 2 = cm = 1/100,000 of the G. Pyramid's height : 63.5 = = tangent β Sacred cubit was created from the Earth's and the Sun's measurements. 12
