It takes a much bigger sheet of paper on which to write all the things one does NOT know, than it does to write what one DOES KNOW. Reminds me, last night I saw another one of 'those' programs about the pyramid of Giza. Little lady with a big smile and a microphone is telling all and sundry, here's the sarcophagus of the pharoah...(it's a granite, bath-shaped structure without a lid, so large and so heavy that it could not be REMOVED - the 'thing' must have been placed where it now stands, and the pyramid had to be built around it) -

Furthermore, a German engineering firm, tasked with creating a duplicate, submitted a design and quotation for the object in separate pieces, because they could not reproduce the original...and undertake to place it into the pyramid...

So you see, what is UNKNOWN is far more interesting than what is the ASSUMED known. Any hope of ever finding out just how that 'sarcophagus' got into the pyramid or how it was created is GONE every time someone with a microphone tells you ALL THEY KNOW.

I agree. A person has to have the attitude that there is much more to be known, and that what is thought to be known may prove to be false when more info is found.

Not just about this topic, about everything.

That stone box, BTW, has all the earmarks of a concrete product, albeit an as yet un-rediscovered concrete recipe.
