Sneferu's Pyramids

[hope]

The fourth dynasty King, Sneferu 2686-2667 BC, was the first to create the pyramid shape that we associate with
Egyptian architecture, he built three pyramids in all, but the first two were failures.
Medum, his first pyramid began as a step pyramid and was then modified to form the first true pyramid, but it
was unstable and the limestone blocks began to slip, soon, work was abandoned.
King Sneferu then moved to Dasshur and built a second pyramid, which we know as "Bent Pyramid " because it's
upper part rises at a shallower angle of incline than the lower part.
With the "Red pyramid ", Sneferu set the standard for all true pyramids to come, he included above ground burial
chambers, a mortuary temple, and a causeway leading down to a valley temple.
This was the model followed by his son Khufu, who built the first and largest pyramid at Giza, the Giza pyramids
were erected on a rocky plateau on the west bank of the the Nile in northern Egypt and were connected, by
covered causeways, to mortuary temples in the valley below the plateau.
These temples had stages which were linked to the Nile by canal, in ancient times they were included among the
Seven Wonders of the World.

The largest of the three pyramids at Giza, known as the "Great Pyramid", is truly an astonishing work of engineering,
it was built over a twenty year period, some believe that it was built by slaves, but this is not true.
One hundred thousand people worked on the great structure for three months of each year, during the Nile's annual flood, when it was impossible to farm the land and most of the population was unemployed.
The Pharaoh provided good food and clothing for his workers, and was kindly remembered in folk tales for many centuries.
From:The new view over Alantis by John Mitchell
Pg 144
The problem is to establish the ideas and intentions of the builders. Stecchini,Livio Catullo, a professor of ancient history, has suggested that the apex was designed to be slightly off centre with each base side of slightly different lengths, and with different angles of slope, thus providing four base height relationships, each exhibiting a particular mathematical formula, by this means the functions of both.."Pi and the ratio of the "golden section".. could be demonstrated together in the one structure.
In addition, there was device by which the Egyptians were able to incorporate different mathematical expressions with a unified network, That device was the pyramidion, a miniature form of the Pyramid...
Pg 149
If, as legend states, the Pyramid was designed to monumentalise the entire code of ancient scientific knowledge, it's makers would have needed to grade the "pyramidion" by scoring it's horizontal lines to represent different versions of the height or even by separating it into detachable sections, the image here is of an inscribed marble capstone, formed of another, minature pyramid made of something other than material, this , and perhaps other sections of
the upper part of the pyramidion, could be removed or out in place as required.
Pg 150 "2623 BC". 2 X 6 X 2 X 3 = 72
"We're it not for the common but inappropriate use of metric units in publishing details of antique weights, that feature would be generally recognised" Five is the number chiefly associated with the pyramid form,which has five faces and five corners, and if 5 cubic inches of solid gold are modelled into the shape of a minature Great Pyramid , the height of the model proves to be the very interesting measure of 0.1520064 ft., which is a tenth part of the Greek cubit(1.52064 ft,) the unit in terms of which...diagram omitted- 152 ft.
A cubic inch of gold, actual size,in pyramid form, Height= one tenth of a Greek cubit.
Pg 151
The area of the Pyramid's side measures 100,000 square cubits, that this small gold pyramidion was an integral part of the Pyramid's design is evident from the figures. Without it the dimensions are not complete, for if it were removed, the area of the Pyramid's side would 99999.9 square cubits only, with 5 cubic inches of gold pyramidion in place, the figure of
100,000 square cubits represents the total area...

When explorers discovered the Grand Gallery, they stepped into a steeply slanted passage less than 7 ft. wide but more than 153 ft. long and nearly 29 ft. high. The walls were lined with massive granite blocks from the Aswan quarry , the passage was completely empty-no murals, no carvings, no decoration at all and no artifacts, just the soaring space connecting some much more modest horizontal passages.
153 ft long- the same amount of fish Jesus netted from the sea-153 fish.



People have in the past thought about the missing cap stone, maybe we will never know and perhaps it is better that we don't mess with unknown powers until we better understand them, do we really know what power could have been unleashed or what power "has" been unleashed in the past.


Deir-el-Medina is an ancient Egyptian village which was home to the artisans who worked on the tombs in the Valley of the Kings during the 18th to 20th dynasties of the New Kingdom, period (ca. 1550-1080 BC) The settlement's ancient name was 'Set Maat' translated as The Place of Truth, and the workmen who lived there were called "Servants in The Place of Truth.
During the Christian Era, the temple of Hathor was converted into a church from which the Arabic name Deirdre el Mendina, the monastery of the town, is derived.

The workers that were selected to construct the Valley of the Kings were viewed as being"the top of their profession" and had a variety of skills.
They were middle class citizens, and not classed as slaves as they were paid for their work in provisions, this pay was significantly greater than that of a field worker. Because of the Pharoh provided all the villagers with government housing and food provisions.
The inhabitants of Deir el-Medina were significantly better off than those who lived in other places in Egypt, and no possessions that only the very wealthy in Egypt could hope to afford. These workers were avid 'moonlighters' in order to make their standard of living greater.
It was determined that over 100 different people lived in the village at one time, and there was also the discovery of foreign named in the village.
Most of the villagers were literate, they were organised the same way that a ship's crew, with left and right rowers. Because they were in such large groups, they were also referred to a a gang, and organising them the same way as a ships crew ensured that the men were in two groups, because of their 'gang' title, the 'right gang' and 'left gang' were their official names.
Each group had a craft or trade,there was a foreman and his deputy, a scribe, stonemasons,carpenters, plasterers, daughtsman, painters,sculptors,guardians and doorkeepers. They were assissed by a group called 'servants of thr tomb' who lived outside the village, but were instructed to supply the village with much needed supplies while the men were away.
When the workers were assigned to a location to work on, they would only work there for 10 days,not returning to the village but sleeping in small shelters that were located above the Valley of the Kings. Their work hours were separated form morning sessions to afternoon sessions, and each session lasted four hours, then on the tenth day, they would return,to Deir el-Medina and celebrate various events such as religious festivals and national holidays, birthdays of the gods and New Years Day. They would repeat this cycle until they were finished with their assignments, every tenth day returning to the village. When the workers returned home they were also in charge of constructing their own tombs, these tombs highlighted the skill of the workmen, as they often put in slightly more effort for their own tombs as they did for the tombs of their Kings and queens.


Meir lies at the edge of the cultivation,about 50km north-west of Asysut, The modern town of el-Qqusiya, about 8km to the east of Meir, probably derives its name from the ancient Qis, classical Cusae Greco-Roman times. Although Qis was capital of the 14th Upper Egyptian name, there are few remaining traces of the ancient town, it was in the necropolis at Meir that the
provincial rulers, or monarchs of the region were buried, in tombs high in th hillside, with the
more humble population further down the slope.
