Then why is there so much water erosion in the pyramid and why was there a moat around the pyramid itself?

For leveling. Gravity + water = level surface to build on.edit on 20-2-2012 by Gorman91 because: (no reason given)

You are asking a question that has an answer. Sure, it's theory. Now it doesn't contradict, and I fail to see ant stumbling. But gravity is a theory also, as well as evolution, and many other facts. We simply know.
The evidence says no aliens, no advanced electricity, no anti gravity. The evidence says mankind built it.
That's why I'm negative to your views. They fly in the face of common sense.
You are literally saying, "I do not know, therefore miracle/god/aliens/impossible imagination... etc etc.
It comes down to this. Nothing says that they couldn't have been done by hand with simple tools. So why doubt this?edit on 19-2-2012 by Gorman91 because: (no reason given)

Scumbag Egypt:
Smart enough to make antigravity.
Not smart enough to build pyramids out of Granite.
Sorry, it just doesn't fit the bill.
As for the inside, prove its water erosion and maybe I'll take a stab at it. Looks as preserved as one would expect to me.edit on 20-2-2012 by Gorman91 because: (no reason given)edit on 20-2-2012 by Gorman91 because: (no reason given)
What you have here is two separate civilizations. The Egypt ewe know came along to the scene AFTER the great pyramids were already built.
I think the people from Atlantis built the pyramids. It is also possible some people from this advanced civilization still remained in Egypt.. these people probably seemed like Gods to the primitive "Egyptians" that were around..
all I can tell you is that on that site I posted where the guy reconstructed the pump mechanism he found the claims of erosion form accounts when he did his research

No. They simply rebuilt after their civilization collapsed. The Early Kingdom build the pyramids. They built pyramids for about 200 years. Then this civilization collapsed. The Middle Kingdom decided to raid the pyramids for gold, and build temples instead.
There is no evidence that the pyramids were built by someone else, nor found.
It doesn't even make sense considering the fact that no early pyramid built by Egypt aligns with Giza. You'd think that if they built the other pyramids they'd build copy offs nearby. But no. For 200 years they build pyramids in no particular order, then the Giza ones were built. There are no gaping holes in the evolution of the design. There are even failures of the design. There is a clear linear development of knowledge from Zoser to Giza.
Atlantis was the Minoans. The Minoans traded with Egypt and it is perfectly possible that they traded construction engineers too. But there was no advanced civilization for it. Minoan architecture is more advanced than the pyramids in some degree, but they existed a few hundred years after the pyramids were built.
There is no evidence that advanced technology is needed to build the pyramids. We already can see how it was built with other systems. There is an anomaly which appears to indicate an internal system that was used to pull bricks up. I linked this earlier.
"some guy". Yes well "some guy" also says some things on some websites plenty of times.
The Service Corridor is small and winding and mostly vertical. Human travel through it would be very difficult and pointless, since the Ascending and Descending Corridors are available. It shows extreme erosion. Why would a “pharaoh’s tomb” pyramid have extreme erosion in a shaft isolated from the outside world? Even floods would not have reached this corridor. The obvious answer is water erosion over a very long time. Part way down this shaft is the Grotto. This position is just barely below the surface of the prepared bedrock base for the pyramid. This chamber served some function.

Because the Egyptians stared at the sky and Orion was right above them, as they were on the equator.
Sorry - but last time I looked Egypt wasn't on the equator, not even 10 000 BC.
And I read somewhere recently (think it was a book by Alan Butler - for what that's worth - some of his hypotheses are a bit weird), that the star Sirius (constellation Orion) rises on the horizon and is never really directly overhead. Not sure how accurate that statement is though.
I see it the opposite.. the large Giza pyramids were built first and the technology devolved after that.. the civilization degenerated more and more. Probably because the few reaming people from the lost civilization died off and there was no one left to carry on their knowledge. There was no support structure. Also.. I think the people from the lost civilization may have encoded knowledge in the myths they gave to the primitive people who remained.
We dodn't even know the purpose of the structures.. from what I have read the Egyptians didn't document how they made them. They documented everything else but nothing about how or why the pyramids were built. I think it is very possible that many of the pyramids were used to store spent uranium. This is my guess to their purpose. I also suspect that later civilizations tried to emulate the ancient pyramids that they didn't understand.
How can you possibly claim this when there is no way to know when most the pyramids were built because most were unmarked?
This doesn't add up because Plato said Atlantis was much larger than Crete...

So you think everyone in ancient history developed the ability to shape solid stone yet with all our technological development we are unaware of it now? I just don't see how that is possible.
Then you have all the geometry secrets encoded in the pyramid.. such as the speed of light etc... and yet none of this info is related in hieroglyphs... then the star references etc...
There is also much more info I am aware of that is difficult to get into here... there is no doubt in my mind of what happened.
