Apex, Great Pyramid
The Missing Capstone
Full Description
The apex of the Great Pyramid has a flat platform ~9m square instead of a pointed capstone. Was it never completed? Was there a special capstone that was removed? Ancient texts describe a gold or electrum capstone.

The Giza Power Plant: Christopher Dunn's Hydrogen Maser Hypothesis
Christopher Dunn, a British-American master craftsman and precision engineer with decades of experience in aerospace manufacturing, proposed in his 1998 book "The Giza Power Plant" that the Great Pyramid functioned as an acoustically-coupled maser (Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) powered by hydrogen gas. Earth's seismic vibrations (constant microseisms at ~7 Hz) enter...
From Power Plant to Cosmic Transmitter: The Complete Energy Pipeline
If the Great Pyramid was a power plant (Dunn, 1998), the question is: power for WHAT? The evidence, when assembled, describes not just a power plant but a TRANSMITTER — a system that converts planetary energy into a directed cosmic signal. Input: Earth's natural vibrations - Seismic microseisms (continuous low-frequency ground motion) - Schumann resonance (7.83 Hz electromagnetic field between...
The Internal Passage System: A Circuit Diagram in Stone
When the Great Pyramid's passages and chambers are mapped as a flow diagram rather than a building plan, a remarkably coherent system emerges: INPUT (Bottom): | v SUBTERRANEAN CHAMBER (Helmholtz resonator, infrasound generator) |-- Dead-End Passage (tuning stub, 16m south) |-- "Bottomless Pit" (water table coupling?) | ASCENDING PASSAGE (junction: sealed by 3 granite plugs) | |-- WELL SHAFT...
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 Earth's equatorial circumference = 40,075,017 meters Accuracy: 99.3% (0.7% error) At a scale factor of...

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...
The Eight-Sided Pyramid: A Feature Invisible from the Ground
In 1940, a British Royal Air Force pilot, P. Groves, photographed the Great Pyramid from the air and noticed something extraordinary: each of the four faces is slightly concave — indented along the center line — making the pyramid effectively eight-sided rather than four-sided. This feature is...
Geopolymer Theory — Cast Stone Hypothesis
Materials scientist Joseph Davidovits proposed in 1979 that the pyramid blocks were not quarried and transported but rather cast in place like concrete. His "geopolymer" theory suggests the Egyptians dissolved limestone in natron (a naturally occurring sodium compound found abundantly in Egypt),...
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 Unmapped Underground: What GPR and Seismic Surveys Reveal Beneath Giza
Multiple ground-penetrating radar (GPR), seismic tomography, and electrical resistivity surveys have been conducted beneath the Giza Plateau. Each has revealed anomalies suggesting constructed features that remain unexcavated. Ground-penetrating radar beneath the Sphinx revealed a rectangular...
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...
