The vandalism itself immediately discredits any legitimacy these STUDENTS might have had to begin with.
Further, they're STUDENTS.
Additionally, we not only have records, as well as a clear line of pyramid building evolution starting with Pharaoh Djoser with his architect Imhotep building the First Step Pyramid which was really just several of the then traditional Mustaba tombs stacked one upon another.
From there, we see Pharaoh Sneferu attempt to build a pyramid at Median which failed, and not to be deterred there was a second attempt that resulted in the Bent Pyramid, and finally, with success he achieved the first proper smooth sided pyramid with what's known as the Red Pyramid.
We know these things.
We have documentation and a clear line of architectural evolution.
This "Mysteries of the Pyramids" stuff claiming them to be older than they are is the domain and product of fantasists with an agenda to push their own fantasy versions of magical myth making toward whatever purpose, or simply willful denial and rejection of well studied material examined over Generations and Generations of scientists who'd have loved to have produced amazing results counter the current findings that would have made their careers, but, all in all continue to support the established paradigm.

VALID research or vandalism? Egyptian authorities are in uproar after two German students scraped away some ancient writing to "prove" the Great Pyramids are 20,000 years old...
The two students from Dresden University recently took matters into their own hands: With Egypt's political turmoil distracting security forces, the pair conspired to sample the red paint and smuggle the pigment out of Egypt.
They have since asserted the fragments support arguments that the construction of date of the Pyramids was much older than Khufu's reign. - Source
Curiously this c.20,000 age is supported by my own recent research.

Hi HumAnnunaki,
You ask about the c.20,000 date that my latest research points to. This builds upon my research in the thread (below):
Giza Precession Timeline
I am presently working on a Flash preentation of this which I will post up in due course.
Regards,

You can't do C14 dating on a scraping of pigment from a wall.
So unless they state their methology, what test they used to obtain this date, and demonstrate repeatability, I'm inclined to not believe it.
Rosinitiate
I'm sorry but it discredits them? So they obtained 20,000 year pigment from where exactly?
Then the uproar over the vandalism is phooey? Or they damaged the pyramids in a grand hoax? Doesn't seem rational.

So if/when they release all information/data and assuming it doesn't fall within the scrutiny of the scientific community its best to just poo poo their findings and not bother to follow up with real and transparent/public testing?

Hmm,
What research is that ?
Where is the proof of this other Lost Civilisation ?
There were Ancient Egyptians... before that there were just local tribes ....
What culture in the Upper Paleolithic could have built the Pyramids ?
After all a lot of people dont think it was possible for the Egyptians to build them so going back in time
doesn't really help....

1. There is no chain of custody.
2. They claimed to have performed an illegal unsanctioned harmful act which begs question about what other sorts of deceptive and underhanded tactics they may have employed.
3. They CLAIM to have run tests, but, in actuality have they?
4. Even if real tests were run, there are plenty samples from archaeological sites all over the planet that could be taken; ash from a fire pit for example, that could be sent to any reputable lab that would then 'verify' the age of the sample, which could have come from anywhere.
These STUDENTS could then wave such results around, entirely out of context with the actual sample represented, to further whatever agenda they have.
5. Again, no legitimate chain of custody and no proof against contamination.

Yes the ancient Egyptians called it Zep Tepi: "The first times" when the world was ruled by the gods.

yeah, that's the question.
no one knows, right?

Hmm,
Well the trouble I have with this is that Zep Tepi is a creation 'myth' that states the universe was created from primordial waters haven't we moved on somewhat from these ancient myths and have better, more data based theories
on how the Universe got started that dont rely on the Ogdoad or Ennead ?
Are you saying the Great Pyramid was built by Gods or something else ?

I simply believe the pyramids of Giza, Cuzco, Puma Punku, Anghor Wat, etc, etc are far older the currently stated. Likely built by advanced humans rivaling our present day albeit fundamentally different, perhaps even giants. Maybe they were aliens, inner-dimensional or otherwise, either way I don't presume to know. I just know what smells bad and it's not the fishmonger.edit on 30-11-2013 by Rosinitiate because: (no reason given)edit on 30-11-2013 by Rosinitiate because: (no reason given)

Yes agreed,
I dont know either, I dont think anyone really does for sure, but when I hear the sound of hooves on the ground I think 'horses' not Zebra's or even worse multidimensional Zebra's from the planet Galaglugalug.
I know humans are capable of building massive things, and therefore all the things you cite were 'probably' built by humans not Gods or Aliens. But of course I cant be sure, not 100% but ...... hooves.... think horses.....

I mean who could ever compete with that 20,000 year old advanced beings that created this structure. Surely it wasn't just a monument serving no other purpose.....

Why did Davinci even bother painting ultra realistic murals knowing his work could never compete with advance stick figure paintings done by super advanced beings.
