>>Multiples of 7, 9 and 11 cubits occur frequently in the design of the Great pyramid.<<
“Lets see a cubit...I used to know what a cubit was
Well don’t worry about that Noah
When you get that done
Go out into the world and
Collect all of the animals in the world by twos
Male and female, and put them into the ark”
“RIGHT!...
Who is this really?”
It does make sense.
Based upon what do they make this claim?
Do they just think that this is the best guess?
Or do they have a consensus of elite scientific minds who think this is the best guess?
It seems that is all they do in regards to archaeology, just make guesses and then proclaim them as being facts.
Just as their claims about how the pyramids were built, who built them and why they were built. All guesses and not based upon facts even, imo.
Only Gourdon knows, but who believes an Onion (rap)Scallion, when it speaks reeks?
That's odd.
Not thinkin, just rememberin.
LOL
Ha! I remember that album.
Purty durn neat!
I don’t buy that, any more than I buy the claim that the Giza pyramids were built to mimic the position of some stars in the sky 10s of 1000s of years ago.
:’) I agree.
LOL!
There are those who would claim that these marks are part of an ancient Egyptian schematic for a computer or something; for more about how the pyramids may have been built, I’ll be happy to post some links to other FR topics.
LOL!
It makes more sense than connecting Giza with Cydonia, I’d say. :’)
Per Peter Thompkins, the mensuration for the Great Pyramid was the Royal Cubit. The Royal cubit is slightly longer then the ordinary cubit.
From Wiki....
The earliest attested standard measure is from the Old Kingdom pyramids of Egypt and was called the royal cubit (mahe). The royal cubit was 523 to 525 mm (20.6 to 20.64 inches) in length,[3] and was subdivided into 7 palms of 4 digits (4 fingers) each, for a 28-part measure in total. Secure evidence for the royal cubit unit is known from Old Kingdom architecture, from at least as early as the construction of the Step Pyramid of Djoser from around 2,700 B.C.[4]
Ha! I know what those markings are...they say “Kilroy was here”
