1. THE PHARAOHS WERE NOT HUMAN BEINGS
2. JESUS/MOSES/NOAH WERE NOT HUMAN BEINGS
3. QUATZEQUATEL/NIMROD/OSIRIS/SETH/HORUS/RA/NEBUCHADNEZZAR WERE NOT HUMAN BEINGS
4. THE SUMARIAN KINGS LIST WERE NOT HUMAN BEINGS.
I can't stress this enough. They are simply Anthropomorphism.
You guys will never solve anything until you come to this conclusion.

Isn't it crazy..? Such an immense, expensive, labor intensive and ever lasting construction has no name on it or indication of what it is. Really weird.. unless somewhere in time someone took all the information about it away on purpose.

Can someone answer this question for me. The sarcophagi in the pyramids of giza do not have inscriptions on them. Why do some of Khufus sons have inscriptions on the sarcophagus and some dont? It may have been in the old kingdom, but his children had them inscripted on their sarcophagi that were NOT in the pyramids of giza and it was needed in order to get to the afterlife. It's REQUIRED. Why did SOME of the sons have inscriptions? It jsut doesnt make any sense.....
unless someone chipped off the hieroglyphics from all of the sarcophagi in the three pyramids......

Hey Harte
Long, long ago on Usenet one guy explained the gypsum mortar under the blocks by the simple observation that the AE poured the concrete at the base of the pyramid, not where it was finally situated. They then let it set and then dragged it up..........

Actually they were cast in place on the structure so they didnt have to be moved. If you watch the full video they show this being done. Not saying this is how they were built, just stating how he thinks they were.

First of all you did an excellent job in composing this, and your previous, thread. In my time on ATS I have really come to favor threads with such substance, and appreciate the work necessary to create something that people want to read. I especially liked the included video and link, as I have often wanted a visual representation of ancient Egypt, especially where vegetation is concerned. It is easy for someone to get the impression that this area of Egypt is mostly desert, thus it was like that when the pyramids were constructed. Honestly I would bet that the area was much more lush than depicted in the visual representation.
originally posted by: JiggyPotamusI have always had a problem believing that the pyramids were built without the help of slave labor. First of all Josephus claimed that the Jews worked as pyramid builders, and although Biblical sources do not actually mention the pyramids, they claim the Jews were forced to construct "bricks" by the Egyptians.
originally posted by: JiggyPotamus So Egypt, at least at certain points, did use slave labor. I don't think this is highly disputed.

I do not entertain ancient astronaut theories of the pyramids for a number of reasons, but the most important is that everything the Egyptians achieved was capable of being done by man at that time.

I mentioned that necessity in a previous post in this thread.
Cutting out limestone blocks. Pulverizing these blocks. Turning the residue into cement. Pouring the cement into unique, individual forms, one per block. Allowing the cement to harden. Then dragging these up a ramp.
Seems like after a year or so of doing this, some smart Egyptian would have said "Hey! Why don't we just drag the stone blocks up the ramp?"

but I would like to know if they were religious enough to perform back-breaking work for no pay.

I never understood these threads. I mean does it matter who build the pyramids or why or how. Its just more crap from the past, another statue in the mud, like many countless others which once riddled this world and have turned to dust. This one for now is still standing like a carcass picked clean in a dessert, its bones barely sticking out the sand, but give it some time a few hundred years more and it to will be nothing more then dust, and in a few hundred more not even a memory. Its as it should be.
