    it was, but not that much. he i'm not the one that made the calculations so dont get mad. i'm just asking it cuz i dont know, if i''m wrong you can say so GENTLY.

    EDIT DGB if youre such a great math, maybe i had to lenght wrong it must be no problem for you (i suck at math) to define the best angle to role stones over it and with the height of the pyramid you can calculate the actual length of the ramp. would you like to do that. thanx

    Heh, can't do that, I was just using basic volumes. My field is economics, with a bit of geography. Some engineers aroudn here might be able to do better, but something about what you were saying just didn't ring true to me.



    As for the construction of them, I have no idea - I don't hugely care either - however the economics of their construction could be interesting.

    Maybe the pharoahs were Keynesians?

    Yeah it was the aliens... Everybody knows that!!! And if you don't then you are just a fool and I will not listen to your arguments!



    Now as said by good old lars, a revolving ramp has proven both rather small and rather effective. By far the best answer we have, and one that makes the job possible. That just leaves the perfectly stones and perfect alignment as well as the perfect water alignment. How that was I don't know, but the building of the structures is possible if you have the manpower around, and the builders city nearby proves that there was plenty of manpower at hand.

    I'm more interested in the Sphinx and its disproportionally small head (despite the harder rock). It has a lot of questions attached to it, and I do not presume to have the answers, but none have so far given me any answers that are good enough to explain it. So I sit and await the time when someone bright steps up and finds out, as with the pyramids. For right now the egyptologists simply won't do anything about it. They have chosen that their ideas are right despite obvious faults...

    Exclamation Re: Egyptian Pyramids

    Open Your Mind!!!

    The pyramids were constructed " in situ " the blocks are of a durable polymer (a type of plastic) synthetic, very heavy, this is not new, approximately 10 years ago a French biochemist demonstrated it (in an experimental way) but it was rejected by the scientific community because UFO sindrome was approaching too much the topic, which is a real blasphemy for them.

Now, maybe i understood wrong the joke (is it was), because the english doesn't flow to me, but then i apolagize for this...
