In fact, there exists very strong evidence that some tombs, including Khufu's, werre actually robbed by the priests themselves, acting on behalf of the priesthood because the "government" was out of money.

I actualy know a dude that lost all his posessions (and, hope) and, now lives under a bridge - he didn't build it, but HE calls it home. Even wrote "Steve-O was here" on the underpass (not that Steve-O).
See what I'm getting at?!
** the Egyptians came upon this magnificent structure on the delta, and figured, this must be for a King!! And made it his final resting home (which there is little evidence for, but I will still go along with for now ('cause it matters little)). Look at some of the Megaliths around the world - even the cultures/civs (particularly in S. America) that are credited with building them have said, 'no, this stuff was here long beforere we were here!'

Yes we get what your getting at, what you are saying is we should abandon all the evidence we have, deny it exists and go for an answer which is not supported by evidence.
I must ask how do you think that AE graffiti got into the relieving chambers? LOL
You obviously didn't read the links I provided, that evidence really scares you huh?
Give us all your evidence that is NOT the denial of the existing evidence that the pyramids were built by someone else, NOT your opinion, real evidence of these mythic folk
Above you noted that people, like the Aztec don't take credit for building that were in existence when they came into an area, that is the common response, to accredit the building to the gods, spirits or whatever, yet you said the Egyptians, who didn't actually come from anywhere except the Nile valley and had been there for 6-8,000 years before they built the pyramids have always said they built it. ??
1. So why do we have zero evidence for these 'others'?
2. Why do we have a great deal of evidence of dynastic AE, pre-dynastic AE and neolithic proto AE? But no body else?
For the other gentleman
Pyramid is a Greek word and describes a type of cake or bread that is roughly pyramid shaped. The AE called the pyramid 'mr'

There are any # of threads on here, with plenty of evidence (replete with links, vids, analysis, etc) that back my assertions that the Great Pyramid was not built by this iteration of human (*you* are the one that mentioned 'aliens', not me (I'll just call them 'our ancestors')). This whole entire *thread* is based on this well-backed and researched argument (do your own research) that most reading it already subscribe to - you would have to, if you are to entertain the idea that it was an ancient power plant, to start with - So, WHY would I rehash that, here?!

IF YOU WANT TO DISCUSS ORIGINS or BUILDERS OF THE GREAT PYRAMID, THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF THREADS THAT YOU CAN GO HAVE THAT DEBATE. THIS THREAD IS ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY THAT IT WAS USED BY THE ANCIENTS AS A POWER PLANT, AND BY DEFAULT, THE ASSUMPTION HAS ALREADY BEEN MADE BY MANY (to the tune of 264 (flags) already) THAT THE GREAT PYRAMID WAS PROBABLY NOT BUILT BY, OR FOR, EGYPTIANS (originally).
Go troll the same tired crap in one of those (many) threads - you are way off topic, here (my mistake, I got sucked into it and exacerbated the situation - apologies)edit on 9/22/2011 by SquirrelNutz because: (no reason given)

I'm still waiting however for a plausible explanation of the square holes on either side of the grand gallery. Do you think it could have been part of some sort of pump mechanism?

I read all you have presented,but got stuck watching more about Ed Leeds(always been fascinated)Joe Bullard's interview on Coast to Coast am.Some information I got from that interview says that Eds patent on how he built Coral Castle especially the machine he used to lift the blocks was never found(and never given),now with that in mind do you think its possible that the government took this patent, instructions and used them to build the ufo's we see today?I know this is out there but if it's true it could explain a lot.

It took a Loooooong time - but, I think it will all be worth it
I believe that the Great Pyramid is a perfect contributor to evidence that this theory is correct.
Harte: THE GREAT PYRAMID COULDN'T HAVE BEEN A POWER PLANT BECAUSE IT WAS A TOMB.
that proves beyond any shadow of a doubt
