Secrets of the Great Pyramid
"....On my trip to Egypt in May 1999, as a participant in the conference "Egypt in the New Millennium," I was able to perform additional on-sight inspection of some of the artifacts I described in my articles and book. I was also blessed to discover startling evidence that supports and confirms a unique and important aspect of the Giza Power Plant theory! Evidence that made chills run down my spine, for it came about in a rather unexpected, though fortuitous, manner. This evidence was inside the Great Pyramid in the Grand Gallery, and I am still amazed by what I found...." Author Chris Dunn in his article Return to the Giza Power Plant
Dunn further states ".....I scanned the ceiling and saw, instead of the rough crumbling limestone one sees when first entering the gallery, what appeared to be, from 28 feet below, smooth highly polished granite. This was highly significant to me. It made sense that the material closer to the power center would be constructed of a material that was more resistant to heat.
"I then paid closer attention to the scorch marks on the walls. There was heavy heat damage underneath each of the corbelled layer for a distance of about 12 inches, and it seemed as though the damage was concentrated in the center of the burn marks. I then visually took a straight line through the center of each scorch mark and projected it down towards the gallery ramp. That was when the chills ran down my spine and the hair stood out on my neck. The line extended down in alignment with the slot in the ramp!...."
"....In THE GIZA POWER PLANT, I had theorized that harmonic resonators were housed in these slots and were oriented vertically toward the ceiling. I had also theorized that there was a hydrogen explosion inside the King's Chamber that shut down the power plant's operation. This explosion explained many other unusual effects that have been noted inside the Great Pyramid in the past, and I had surmised that the explosion had also destroyed the resonators inside the Grand Gallery in a terrible fire...."

It will probably surprise many people to know that evidence proving that the ancient Egyptians used tools such as straight saws, circular saws, and even lathes has been recognized for over a century...." He further states ".... The application of ultrasonic machining is the only method that completely satisfies logic, from a technical viewpoint, and explains all noted phenomena. Ultrasonic machining is the oscillatory motion of a tool that chips away material, like a jackhammer chipping away at a piece of concrete pavement, except much faster and not as measurable in its reciprocation...."

Khufus Great Pyramid "....It's 756 feet long on each side, 450 high and is composed of 2,300,000 blocks of stone, each averaging 2 1/2 tons in weight. Despite the makers' limited surveying tools no side is more than 8 inches different in length than another, and the whole structure is perfectly oriented to the points of the compass. Until the 19th century it was the tallest building in the world and, at the age of 4,500 years, it is the only one of the famous "Seven Wonders of the Ancient World" that still stands. It is the Great Pyramid of Khufu, at Giza, Egypt...." See also How to Build a Pyramid

The Mystery of the Great Pyramid
An interview with author Alan F. Alford and Jon East:
JE:
"I see. It's good that you're open-minded. But how can you be so sure that the Pyramid is not what Egyptologists say it is? What makes you so sure that it's not a tomb?"
AFA:
"Well, that's a long story, which I touched on in my first book, but have expanded considerably in this sequel.
In a nutshell, the Great Pyramid is of an entirely different ilk to the other pyramids in Egypt. Its build quality is totally superior. Its design is radically different. And its dimensions - as a scaled down hemisphere of the Earth - bespeak a scientific rather than a religious purpose. All this suggests that the Great Pyramid was built by an entirely different culture - in my view an earlier, pre-dynastic culture."
JE:
"But you no longer go along with the idea that the Pyramid dates back to 10500 BC?"
AFA:
"Yes, I have changed my mind on that point. Initially, I was attracted to the argument that the Sphinx was a lion, signifying the era of Leo from the 11th millennium BC. But now - having carried out a really in-depth study of ancient Egypt - I've come to the conclusion that the Sphinx wasn't a lion at all, but was rather a carving of Anubis, the canine god of the Earth."

Who Built the Pyramids? ".... The leading American specialist in pyramid construction, Dr. Mark Lehner, has recently provided some interesting statistics dealing with the construction of the Great Pyramid. Through a series of direct, hands-on experiments in construction and using the ancient techniques illustrated on wall-paintings in the tombs, he has been able to show that a 2.5 ton limestone block could have been dragged by just 20 men from the quarry to the foot of the pyramid in less than half an hour. A single dragging team would probably, therefore, have transported at least 10 stones per day to the building site. Using 30 teams or gangs of draggers, an astonishing 300 blocks could then have been available for construction every day throughout the 23-year reign of Pharaoh Khufu. That's a grand total of over 2.5 million stones! Surveyors have calculated that the Great Pyramid consists of approximately 2.3 million blocks – enough to build a wall all the way around France over 10 feet high. So the figures can be made to add up – if we assume that work continued throughout the year. Even so, it is an extraordinary feat we are contemplating here. We can only marvel at the thought of an Egyptian workforce sustaining an effort which required the lifting, positioning and trimming of a huge block of stone every 2 minutes, day-in day-out, for a quarter of a century...."
The Lost Tombs
Mysteries of Coral Castle... Could Hold the Key to the Mysteries of the Pyramids
"Leedskalnin is quoted as saying, "I have discovered the secrets of the pyramids. I have found out how the Egyptians and the ancient builders in Peru, Yucatan, and Asia, with only primitive tools, raised and set in place blocks of stone weighing many tons." The very stones of Coral Castle support his story -- at an average of six tons, they are twice the weight of the blocks in Egypt's Great Pyramid at Giza.
"Carrol A. Lake, a colonel in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, stated that "Leedskalnin proved for all the world to see today that he knew the construction secrets of the ancients." He was seconded by one of America's leading investigators, Vincent H. Gaddis, who said of the mysterious Latvian immigrant, "There is no doubt that he applied some principle in weight lifting that remains a secret today." "
Coral Castle withstood the devastation of Hurricane Andrew in 1993 while many of the buildings for miles around were devastated by that destructive storm.
