4.7.00 WorldMysteries purpose and objectives - Why did we create this site, anyway?
  (newcomers please read)

 


My name is Chris. I am just an ordinary human being. I don't have a degree in Egyptology. I have never been to Egypt. Yet I am fascinated.

History books told us that the Great Pyramid was created by many Egyptians under the leadership of Pharaoh Kufhu in 2500 BC. They told us that a ramp was constructed, and blocks 20 tons in weight were set into place over a span of 23 years. They told us that the Pyramids were created for the entombment of dead Pharaohs. Teachers went on and on about the magnificence of the Pyramids, for they were the largest manmade structures on the earth for centuries.

However, the following facts regarding the Great Pyramid were never mentioned in my History books:

We know from geometry that there is a universal relationship between the diameter of a circle and its circumference. Consider this: The height of the Pyramid's apex is 5,812.98 inches, and each side is 9,131 inches from corner to corner (in a straight line). If the circumference of the Pyramid is divided by twice its height (the diameter of a circle is twice the radius), the result is 3.14159, which just happens to be pi. Incredibly, this calculation is accurate to six digits. So the Pyramid is a square circle, and thus pi was designed into it 4,600 years ago. Pi is demonstrated many times throughout the Pyramid.

Other numbers are also repeated throughout. Each of the Pyramids four walls, when measured as a straight line, are 9,131 inches, for a total of 36,524 inches. At first glance, this number may not seem significant, but move the decimal point over and you get 365.24. Modern science has shown us that the exact length of the solar year is 365.24 days.

The average height of land above sea level (Miami being low and the Himalayas being high), as can be measured only by modern-day satellites and computers, happens to be 5,449 inches. That is the exact height of the Pyramid.

All four sides of the Pyramid are very slightly and evenly bowed in, or concave. This effect, which cannot be detected by looking at the Pyramid from the ground, was discovered around 1940 by a pilot taking aerial photos to check certain measurements. As measured by today's laser instruments, all of these perfectly cut and intentionally bowed stone blocks duplicate exactly the curvature of the earth. The radius of this bow is equal to the radius of the Earth.

(the above facts and and more can be found on the Dreamland Report website.)

Furthermore, to construct a ramp likening the pictures in the history books, it would have had to have been more than a mile long, and used more material than the Great Pyramid itself. And there has never been a single Pharaoh, alive or dead, found in any of the three Pyramids of Giza.

This website is for those of you that had a hard time believing everything you read in your history books.
