Great Pyramid of Giza
Precision of Base Alignment
Full Description
The base of the Great Pyramid is level to within 2.1 centimeters across the entire 230-meter base. The sides are aligned to true north with an accuracy of 3/60th of a degree. This precision rivals or exceeds modern construction capabilities.

Pi Encoded in the Great Pyramid
The perimeter of the Great Pyramid's base (4 × 230.33 m = 921.32 m) divided by twice its height (2 × 146.59 m = 293.18 m) yields 3.1425 — within 0.03% of the true value of π (3.14159...). This relationship means the pyramid's cross-section embodies the geometric principle of "squaring the circle" — the base perimeter equals the circumference of a circle whose radius is the pyramid's height. The...
The Royal Cubit and Earth's Polar Radius
The Egyptian Royal Cubit measures 0.5236 meters. Intriguingly, 0.5236 ≈ π/6 (0.5236) to extraordinary precision. If the pyramid's base side (230.33 m) is expressed in royal cubits: 230.33 / 0.5236 ≈ 440 cubits. The height is approximately 280 cubits. The ratio 440/280 simplifies to 11/7, which is an ancient approximation for π/2 (since 22/7 ≈ π). Furthermore, Earth's polar radius in royal cubits...
Cardinal Alignment Precision
The Great Pyramid's base sides are aligned to true north, south, east, and west with an accuracy of 3 arc-minutes (3/60th of a degree), or about 0.05°. This surpasses the alignment accuracy of the Greenwich Observatory, built in 1675. To achieve this, the builders needed either sophisticated astronomical observation techniques (tracking circumpolar stars) or instruments of extraordinary...
Construction Block Precision
The Great Pyramid contains approximately 2.3 million limestone blocks, each averaging 2.5 tonnes (some granite blocks weigh 80 tonnes). The blocks fit together with joints averaging 0.5 millimeters — thinner than a sheet of paper. Modern stonemasons struggle to achieve this tolerance with power tools. The original Tura limestone casing stones were polished to an optical flatness, reflecting...
Granite Machining Evidence
Christopher Dunn's engineering analysis of the granite sarcophagus in the King's Chamber reveals tool marks consistent with modern CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining. The interior surfaces show a precision of 0.001 inches over large areas. Spiral grooves found in core drill holes cut into hard granite and diorite suggest a feed rate and speed that would require modern diamond-tipped drill...
Stellar Shaft Alignments
The Great Pyramid has four narrow shafts (~20 cm × 20 cm) emanating from the King's and Queen's Chambers. At the time of construction (~2500 BCE): the southern shaft of the King's Chamber pointed to Orion's Belt (Al Nitak, associated with Osiris); the northern shaft pointed to Alpha Draconis (Thuban, the then-pole star); the southern shaft of the Queen's Chamber pointed to Sirius (associated with...
Global Pyramid Building Tradition
Pyramids or stepped pyramidal structures appear in virtually every ancient civilization: Egypt (Giza, Saqqara, Dahshur), Mexico (Teotihuacan, Chichen Itza, Palenque), Guatemala (Tikal), Peru (Caral, Moche), Sudan (Meroë — 200+ pyramids), China (Xi'an — 100+ pyramids), Indonesia (Gunung Padang, possibly 20,000+ years old), Bosnia (controversial Visoko pyramids), Sardinia (Monte d'Accoddi),...
Göbekli Tepe — Rewriting the Timeline
Göbekli Tepe in southeastern Turkey, dated to 9600-8000 BCE, is the oldest known monumental stone structure — predating the Great Pyramid by 7,000 years and Stonehenge by 6,000 years. Its massive T-shaped pillars (up to 6 meters tall, 20 tonnes) were carved and erected by hunter-gatherers who supposedly had no agriculture, no metal tools, and no organized social hierarchy. The site contains...

The 43,200 Scale: The Pyramid as a Precision Model of Earth
Great Pyramid height (original with capstone): 146.7 meters Great Pyramid base perimeter: 921.5 meters (4 x 230.4 m) Height x 43,200 = 146.7 x 43,200 = 6,337,440 meters Earth's polar radius = 6,356,752 meters Accuracy: 99.7% (0.3% error) Perimeter x 43,200 = 921.5 x 43,200 = 39,808,800 meters...
Geographic Center of Earth's Landmass: The Pyramid at the Crossroads
The Great Pyramid is located at or very near the geographic center of all land surface on Earth. This was first calculated in the 19th century and has been refined with modern computational methods. If you calculate the centroid of all continental landmass (weighting by area), the result falls near...
Speed of Light Coordinate: Counter-Arguments Analyzed
COUNTER-ARGUMENT 1: "The meter is a modern invention" Rebuttal: The meter was DERIVED from the Earth itself — defined as 1/10,000,000 of Earth's quadrant. The Great Pyramid demonstrably encodes Earth's dimensions at a 1:43,200 scale (height x 43,200 = polar radius, perimeter x 43,200 = equatorial...
Speed of Light Coordinate: Complete Probability Analysis
We calculate the probability that a random latitude on Earth matches c/10^7 = 29.9792458. SCENARIO 1: Random placement anywhere on Earth - Latitude ranges from -90 to +90 (180 degrees total) - The target latitude must be in the 29-30 degree band: P = 1/180 = 0.0056 - Given the right band,...
The Golden Ratio (Phi) in Pyramid Geometry
