Dzhanibekov effect. That is if you spin an object in zero gravity, the axis it is spinning on will change periodically.
The earth, thankfully in most ways, spins on our axis about 1000 miles an hour. Now if the Dzhanibekov effect happens to earth, then a very large mass of water will want to continue moving 1000 miles an hour in the direction it was going.
Since the axis would change by 90 degrees, the pyramids would be facing a large motion of moving water head on. And the grand gallery could be shaped for something heavy enough to block a lot of water.
A whole civilisation must be under the Sahara
Were the pyramids built to withstand lots and lots of water

So the rocks and trees and rubble would be lava and carbon (coal?) would the people living in caves under the surface live (like the ant people?)
