Max Toth in his book Pyramid states how many interpreted the various dimensions of the Great Pyramid. It reads: “…pyramidologists believe that the Pyramid in all its symbolism, represents the laws of the universe expressed geometrically (p. 189).” This cannot be denied if history is correct about when men acquired certain knowledge. The dimensions of the Great Pyramid will show its purpose and plan in the design. Space is not available to list all these correlation’s, but a few of the most important and the simplest to understand will be provided. Here are some of the dimensions and their correlation to astronomical calculations.
The base unit of measurement in the Pyramid’s is 25.052 inches. The Pryamid’s inch is 1.0025 of our regular inch. Each side of its base is 365.2422 cubits, which is the exact number of days in a solar year. Now 365.24 cubits occur five or six times somewhere within the pyramid that shows it was not a coincidence.
The Pyramid’s perimeter, the distance around the four sides of the base, correlates with the circumference of the earth.
According to Professor Piazzi Smyth, multiplying the height of the Pyramid’s 35th layer by 10 derives the distance of the earth from the sun.
The base unit of measurement used by the Pyramid designer is ten-millionth of the earth’s polar radius, according Peter Lemeisuier. Simply put it is one ten millionth the distance from the North Pole to equator.
The number of days in a century (100 years) is 36,524 days and corresponds to the total inches valued in the Pyramid’s perimeter.
The number Pi is the mathematical constant 3.1415, with the ratio of the diameter to the distance around the circle, called the circumference. In the pyramid it is the ratio of the height to twice the length of the base.
What revelations are known about the dimensions of the Great Pyramid?
Update on the Giza Plateau
Zahi Hawass has appeared in a recent article in Al-Ahram once again explaining his push to ‘clean up’ the Giza Plateau. He talks about the criticism the project has received from local camel operaters, who’s livelihoods depend on the tourists. Hawass explains that everyone benefits with the new system as the tourists are now in a better position to see the camel stables and so taking a camel ride is made easier, safer, and more accessible.
None of the horse and camel drivers are allowed inside the pyramid compound any longer. This system permits us to identify the camel drivers who try to take advantage of the tourists, because, now, for the first time, there is a Tourist Police office, an Antiquities office, and even an area to feed the animals, all near the stables.
At the same time, for those tourists who want to buy souvenirs and drinks, they will not be hassled by random individuals. It is my dream to clean up the Giza Plateau and return it to its pristine glory. I believe this project benefits everyone, even the camel and horse drivers, as well as those who sell souvenirs.
Hawass went on to report on the current state of the project with the implementation of the new track for electric cars now being 70 % complete. A very interesting point of the piece was at the end where Hawass reports that a wooden floor is being constructed in front of the pyramid for the safety of the tourists. During the clearing and excavation the team uncovered evidence that demonstrates the method by which the pyramid of Menkaure was levelled as well as other evidence regarding its construction.
Statue found near the pyramid of Menkaure
This would explain the heavy land moving activity that was seen on the plateau in front of Menkaure’s pyramid in May last year.
Dr Hawass also refers to the unfinished seated statue that was uncovered directly in front of Menkaure’s pyramid in February last year.
It now appears that the accidental discovery of this statue as well as the deep excavations witnessed on the east side of the pyramid last year were related to this leveling of the ground around the pyramid in preperation for the installation of the wooden platform.
It’s difficult to dig anywhere on the plateau without making a new discovery of some sort and it is always great news to hear of new evidence being uncovered, especially when it concerns the construction of the pyramids.
The Internal Ramp Goes Public
In academia, ideas are constantly being tested, first at conferences and later by publication. This is when you really know if what you are proposing works. Because Jean-Pierre is an architect, not an academic, his ideas didn’t take this route. One of the first things I noticed when he gave me some of his writings to read is that there were no references. Normally when you tackle a problem, you survey the literature, read everything on the subject you can find, and list your sources. You don’t want to reinvent the wheel. Jean-Pierre just sat down at the computer and started working, which put him at a disadvantage. He had not published the details of his theory nor had he had serious discussions with those qualified to evaluate the theory.52 Some of his earlier informal talks to engineers had created a buzz about the theory and now his father’s professional organization, the Société des Ingénieurs des Arts et Métiers, wanted Jean-Pierre to give a talk. It was the perfect chance to test the waters. The civil engineers would give him needed feedback on the theory but they would be a friendly audience.
The hour lecture went well. There were some questions about details, but no one had any serious objections to the theory, or at least they didn’t mention any. In the audience was the former manager of Peugeot/Citroën who had been in charge of digital designing and manufacturing. He understood how heroic Jean-Pierre’s solitary effort at digitally reconstructing the Great Pyramid was, and he was equally impressed with the theory itself. He thought it was correct. He was familiar with Dassault Systèmes’ software and thought that if Jean-Pierre had access to their programs he could take his simulations to another level. Dassault Group is a multibillion-dollar corporation founded by Marcel Dassault, father of the famous the Mirage jet. One of their divisions, Dassault Systèmes, designs 3-D engineering software. Without telling Jean-Pierre, he called Dassault Systèmes and told them about this obsessed genius in a studio apartment in Paris who seemed to have solved the riddle of the Great Pyramid on his computer
