For those who continue to believe nobody knows why the pyramids were built

a reply to: Marduk


People demand evidence but don't actually look at it these days because their minds are already made up.

As a geologist, I come across this constantly.

You have a whole lot more patience than I do.

I dreamed in a waking slumber, the pyramids were used to amplify the wishes and intentions of the pharoah/wise men. the pyramid shape and sheer enormity, projected the users thoughts / prayers into the ether and allowed him a direct access to the universal architect.

I dreamed that I took on an alien invasion with a bucket
Doesn't make it valid

The REAL question I ask that no one else ever seems to ask regarding the building of the pyramids is how did they feed so many people? There was no global market, one bad season and it could lead to extinction. Also, to perform physically at the level required to manually build the pyramid I believe it is estimated that the average worker needed 5000-6000 calories per day to sustain.

I know humans are definitely capable of making the pyramids, I just don't believe that is the case.

The male average daily intakes were 2430 Calories so your belief is a little unfounded...
and there is a website here which goes into detail about their diet

You should probably read it, the facts trump belief every time

84% of the world's population disagrees with you, I'm afraid.

The male average daily activity doesn't include building pyramids. Think before you try to be smart.

And the estimate is WELL above 10,000 people to build the pyramids. Add a zero to start.

I remember reading that monoatomic gold was also found in the kings chamber...which was used to intensify ones conciousness .... So possible it was a giant 'wishing machine'....rather than the old crusty illogical theory that it was a tomb.

I already linked you to a website that answered all your questions and your response is to insult me
Here's another website you could have found yourself if you weren't such a creduloid

As a result of his calculations, the workers consumed 67 grams of protein a day, or a little more than two McDonald's quarter pounders with cheese. Since the main supplier of protein is meat, every worker ate nearly 6 pounds (2.72 kilograms) of meat per week. The scientist suggested that half of the protein diet was fish from the Nile river and analyzed information about the remains of the ancient Egyptian cattle to calculate how much meat they could get from one animal. Further calculations showed that 10,000 workers were eating 105 cows and 368 sheep and goats every ten days. To ensure a continuous supply of meat, herds numbering 21,900 cows and 54,750 sheep and goats had to be maintained. They required over a half million square kilometers of grassland, or about five percent of the area of ​​the Nile Delta, and almost 19,000 herders, nearly 2 percent of the country's population. -

Next time, perhaps you can learn to use google yourself

You read wrong, the usual claim is that the pyramid was a monoatomic gold factory, but none has ever been found in it, that's just the baloney you hear when someone is trying to sell you it

which was used to intensify ones conciousness .... So possible it was a giant 'wishing machine'....rather than the old crusty illogical theory that it was a tomb.

Yes, I agree completely, apart from the pyramids being in the centre of a Necropolis and surrounded by smaller satellite pyramids in which the queens were buried and having in other later examples spells written onto the walls to assist the deceased and having a burial chamber in them and a mortuary temple outside where prayers were said for the dead king inside his tomb, there is nothing to suggest that it was a tomb...

That facts trump belief.

Honestly, I wouldn't rule it out as impossible that the Pyramids had some of extra spiritual function, but they were definitely tombs. Or are definitely tombs.

You have provided me with nothing but links of assumptions, and those assumptions BOTH claim only 10,000 workers. The number of workers itself is why I disregard your claim. While numbers obviously can never be decisively determined, the number of workers needed always estimates close to the 6 figure range, not 5.

I'm sorry that you have an inability to accept basic facts based on archaeological evidence, but that's your problem, not mine. The calculations have been made, based on the evidence, the results have been published, what a surprise that the only person who won't accept them is you
Deal with it.

a reply to: Marduk

It's not just me buddy.

Where is the evidence of these farms? Your link did make mention to save face about feeding the ANIMALS, but what did they feed them with? Sand?

anything that's built that's big scares the mssages into submission

Marduk...bro you work pretty hard, running around puting fires out! Relax...and entertain some far oit theories man, thats why this ssite was created! To discuss posibilities and theories, thats why im here how bout you?

You didn't catch the website motto yet then, despite it being down both sides of the page

a reply to: Marduk

So you are here, just ignoring my question regarding feeding the animals. Or were they magic Egyptian animals that didn't need food to live?
