    Default giza and the secrets revealed



    if you have a interest in Egypt and the Giza plateau then you may find this rather interesting.
    40 minute slide show with a talk over by Robert Temple revealing were 7 royal tombs are still buried and much more.

    exposing the big lie

    FIGURE 1. This is a section view of the Great Pyramid as seen from the east, which demonstrates the carefully levelled surface to the north (which is to the right in this view) of the Great Pyramid, where the sun shadows were cast for determining the precise length of the year. In particular, there was a ‘north meridian line’ laid out on the surface from the base of the pyramid to measure the noon shadow at each equinox, which was less than five feet long. A stone connected with this precise spot at the base has been removed in ancient times. The rubbish mound portrayed here up against the north face of the pyramid has been long since removed. The longest shadow cast by the Great Pyramid beyond its own base extended 268 feet north at noon on the winter solstice, hence the need for a shadow floor on this levelled bedrock. (The limestone flooring of the shadow floor itself was stripped away long ago by stone robbers.) Piazzi-Smyth has drawn a line to the sky showing that in 2170 BC, the star Alpha Draconis would have crossed the line of sight from the Descending Passage which looked precisely at the meridian, hence allowing a perfect meridian transit or culmination to be observed every night. This is not a detail which I have chosen to discuss, as the astronomy of the Great Pyramid is too complex a subject for discussion here, and I do not necessarily go along with the Alpha Draconis idea. This drawing is from Charles Piazzi-Smyth,Our Inheritance in the Great Pyramid, London, 1880, Plate 6 at front of the book. The ‘shadow floor’ which lay across the levelled bedrock to the north of the Great Pyramid must be included in the Giza Precinct in order for the true plan of Giza to be revealed. If we include this northern extension beyond the base of the Great Pyramid, we get the ‘Giza Shadow Square’, the southwest corner of which is defined by the Pyramid of Mycerinus (see FIGURE 2). From the Shadow Square may be constructed (as in FIGURE 5) the ‘Giza Perfect Square’, which is slightly larger, but which shares its southwest corner with the Shadow Square. The small Pyramid of Mycerinus is thus a kind of ‘anchor’-object which holds both the Shadow Square and the Perfect Square in place at their common bottom southwest corner. From these two squares many geometrical correlation details may be derived for the main Giza monuments which are accurate to approximately two feet within an area of approximately 11 million square feet. The massive over-redundancy of correlations revealed within these squares cannot have a ‘normal’ purpose, and the fact that more than one square was used suggests an attempt at concealing the full design concept of the Plateau by means of multiple layers of design, such that if one layer were discovered, the others would remain undetected. These intellectual games played by the Egyptian priests are presumed to have a religious or ‘magical’ motivation, as part of a pious effort to simulate the structure of the cosmos as conceived by them, as part of their fundamental religious need to ‘honour Maat (cosmic order)’. They also clearly wished to conceal their sacred secrets from the eyes of the profane.



    SUPPLEMENTARY PLATE 1
    Aerial photo of the Great Pyramid (left) and the Pyramid of Chephren (right), taken from the northwest, looking southeast. This photo shows the entrance to the Great Pyramid as a dark hole in the side. The ‘shadow floor’ is well seen here from the air, as the levelled bedrock surface extending from the pyramid to the northern edge of the plateau, where the road descends (a road which no longer exists.) In the foreground are the mastaba tombs of royal officials, constituting the ‘west Giza’ necropolis area. This is the only aerial photo of Giza taken from the northwest which I have ever seen, and hence the only aerial view which shows the levelled surface (at far left) of what was once the Great Pyramid Shadow Floor. In this photo, the mastabas built during the Old Kingdom period west of the Great Pyramid (right, foreground) appear to extend to the northern boundary of the Giza Square, suggesting that in the Fourth Dynasty, the true geometrical northern boundary of the sacred Giza Complex was still known by the priests.

    Olivia Temple sitting at the top of the vast open shaft at Abu Ruash, six miles north of Giza on a hill. The shaft points due north and was in my opinion an astronomical observation shaft for stars crossing the meridian (the north-south line). Without such a shaft, the Egyptians could not have achieved sufficient accuracy with their calendar to be certain of the correct dates of all their religious festivals. (They did this by noting the precise moments when key stars crossed the meridian line in the sky by sighting up the shaft, known as ‘observing stars culminating at the meridian’ by astronomers.) A similar dilemma faced the Roman Catholic Church for centuries, and led to their adopting extraordinarily complex and expensive measures to use their vast churches in Italy and France (such as Saint Sulpice in Paris, as mentioned in The Da Vinci Code) for observing solar rays along brass meridian lines inlaid into the church floors, in order to be certain of the date of Easter. The idea, often suggested by people who have not thought the matter through, that a pyramid once stood on top of this shaft is ridiculous, as there was only a wall around the site (see Figure 10), never a pyramid. A ‘twin’ of this shaft exists also south of Giza at a place called Zawiyet el-Aryan, but it is inside a military base and no archaeologists are allowed to visit it. For old photos of it before the military base was constructed, see Plates 8 and 8B. The Zawiyet Shaft excavations revealed its association with a Third Dynasty pharaoh named Nebka, whereas the Abu Ruash Shaft has associations with a Fourth Dynasty pharaoh named Djedefre, who even built a mudbrick temple nearby, from the ruins of which a magnificent portrait bust of him was excavated.




    SUPPLEMENTARY PLATE 8B.

    The complicated granite platform or ‘base’ (radier, as Lauer calls it in French) at the bottom of the Zawiyet el-Aryan meridian observation shaft shown in Plate 8. The archaeologist Jean-Phillip Lauer stands at right, giving an indication of the scale. He has no explanation for the nature and purpose of this strange structure. I believe that the oval depression in the centre of this platform was the base for a giant water-clock, which was used to mark the hours of the night while the astronomical observations were taking place in the adjoining meridian observation shaft. The water clock, re-calibrated once a day during daylight hours by a shadow-clock, would have made possible a precise timing of each successive stellar ‘culmination’, since the daytime shadow-clocks could not be used for time-keeping at night. Only by timing every ‘culmination’ precisely could precise calendrical measurements be obtained. (Ancient Egyptian water clocks and shadow clocks survive, as well as texts describing their use, and we know exactly how they worked.)



    The three pyramids of Giza seen through the Cairo smog from the top of the hill of Abu Ruash. It was on this hilltop far from Giza that Pharaoh Djedefre, who reigned circa 2581-2572 BC, between the reigns of Cheops and Chephren, was supposed to have built a large pyramid. However, no pyramid is actually there, and it is doubtful that any ever was. What is there is a gigantic excavation of the bedrock to form a mammoth descending passage and chamber, but these are exposed to the sky and seem never to have been covered over. Massive stones forming some sort of surrounding structure on the surface survive, and many are known to have been carried away. But it cannot be demonstrated that these ever constituted even the beginnings of an actual pyramid. Certainly if a pyramid were commenced here, it was never finished. The Abu Ruash ‘thing’, whatever it was, was certainly huge, but it is not certain what it actually was. Its supposed association with Djedefre is also established only through circumstantial evidence, and there is no direct evidence. I believe that the Abu Ruash site was a merdianal astronomical observation shaft, and that it was surrounded by a stone wall (see figure X). This photo gives the necessary perspective to show the relationship between the site and Giza, which lay 600 feet below and six miles away to the south.

    A view no one ever sees: the tombs of Giza as seen from the southwest corner of the roof of the Valley Temple, looking west. The Pyramid of Chephren is on the right, and in the distance on the left is the Pyramid of Mycerinus. The Chephren Causeway may be glimpsed on the far right leading up to the pyramid. Olivia is strolling in the foreground.

    this is just one of a huge amount of fantastic photos and their descriptions here.

    location of undisturbed royal tomb from the 4th dynasty or before.



    here we see a image of the spinx temple , notice the whole in the bedrock in the middle of the photo.



    here is another view of that "hole" what you are viewing is a 100 ton granite block that has been carted up from aswan and sunk into the bedrock .
    why ?
    this piece of granite goes under the wall of the sphinx temple , so it was laid into the bedrock before the temple was constructed .



    and out the other side.



    this is a pully guide that fits into the chase of that piece of granite.



    and it was used for lowering large sarcophagus ( 40 to 60 tons) down into tombs.

    the Sphinx temple was only uncovered from the sands this century



    which means who ever is buried at the end and under that piece of granite is very old , extremely inportantant and it's still there.

    Zawyet El Aryan is located three miles southeast of the Giza pyramids. According to Mohamed Ibrahim the location is Egypt's Area 51.

    megalithicmarvels
    Quote I recently interviewed (linked at bottom of page) renowned Egyptologist and tour guide Mohamed Ibrahim, and asked him about a mysterious structure located about three miles southeast of the Giza pyramids called “Zawyet El Aryan,” or as he calls it, “Egypt’s Area 51.” Since the EgyptIan military seized control of this ancient site in the early 1960s, no one is allowed to enter it. Any further excavation or research of this site has been forbidden. The only photos we have, which are featured here, are from the excavations of Italian archaeologist Alessandro Barsanti who found the remains of this megalithic marvel in 1900, and started excavating in 1904. According to Mohamed Ibrahim, Alessandro Barsanti found the title “Stargate” in a stone next to this enigmatic structure.

    The descending corridor is 100 meters long, 25 meters wide and 30 meters deep. Alexandre Moret, a French Egyptologist (1869-1938) who visited the site after it had been excavated by Barsanti), was impressed by the sheer quality of the construction: “The walls of the cavity (corridor and chamber) are simply cut out from the the limestone plateau; the profiles have such a sharpness to it that it seems that they have been cut out from the rock with a stretched thread, as if it was a clod of butter.”

    Barsanti was struck by the sheer quality of the stone work of the descending shaft and the open room at the bottom. The entire base of Zawyet El Aryan is cut out of the local limestone rock. Its base is 200 meters or 660 feet, which would make it almost as tall as the Great Pyramid in Giza! A large descending shaft was cut out of this rock leading to a subterranean chamber. A North-South corridor leads directly to a chamber that is located exactly under the vertical axis of the pyramid. The chamber measure 11.7 x 24 meters (38 x 78 feet). The entire floor of the chamber is dressed with massive granite blocks. The blocks measure 4.5 m (15 feet) long and 2.5 m (8.2 feet) thick and weigh up to 9 tons each. At the West end of the chamber is a curious feature: an oval tub cut into one of the granite blocks of the foundation. It is usually referred to as a sarcophagus, but this is clearly not the case when you read Barsanti’s original description below.
