A bold, evidence-driven look at the pyramids and their purpose

In this exploratory work, a longtime explorer proposes that the Gizeh pyramids were built for more than tombs. The author ties measurements, geometry, and surveying methods to a practical use in ancient Egypt.

The book walks through plans, triangles, and ratios that connect the sizes of the great pyramids. It introduces a new cubit system and shows how scaled models and diagrams can illuminate how the pyramids could have served as tools for land measurement and road planning. It also discusses the possible roles of galleries, chambers, and obelisks in supporting a sophisticated surveying program.

Learn how geometric relationships and plan views link the pyramids’ dimensions
See the case for a practical measuring system used in ancient construction
Explore diagrams, scale models, and hands-on ideas for visualizing the theory
Understand why surveying and astronomy might have shaped pyramid design

Ideal for readers curious about ancient engineering, architectural history, and the math behind monumental construction.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book proposes a groundbreaking survey theory about the three main pyramids of Giza: Cheops, Chephren, and Mycerinus. The author systematically presents evidence to support the theory that these pyramids were built using principles of geometry and were used to conduct surveys of the surrounding land. The author first establishes a foundation for the theory by exploring the plan of the Giza group and the original cubit measure used in their construction. They then proceed to examine the exact dimensions of the pyramids and their slopes, ratios, and angles, showing how these features were integral to their surveying capabilities. The author also dives into the significance of the 3, 4, 5 and 20, 21, 29 triangles in the design and function of the pyramids, demonstrating how the pyramids exhibit a remarkable understanding of geometry. Ultimately, the book argues that the pyramids were not only architectural marvels but also sophisticated scientific instruments, used by the ancient Egyptians to conduct accurate surveys of their land.
