I had to order the book. I pulled out the books, and engineering
notes I had got from some enigneers I know and they all say the same
thing. Lifting 200 tons is a very delicate operation even now. My
notes said the engineers would not want to do it with a crane as it
was a time consuming thing to do now. I had never heard of this book,
so I'm taking a look. The largest then (2002) was 3,000 tons, but I
think that was a gantry, not a crane. Regards, Ken
So? One thing you'll learn from LSdC's book is that you don't need
to *lift* any of the stones to build the pyramids.
What I actually refered to in the book was the mortuary temple and
Sphinix complex, as it is completely different from the normal
Egyptian building. No hieroglyphics, or writing of any kind. As well
as the bases of the pyramids that are so level and aligned as they are
aligned. The idea of the bases and how they were made was the work of
a genius, whoever it was. He accounted for about everything up to and
including the strong winds that sweep accros the plauteau who ever
engineered the pryamid itself. In my book, the bases, mortuary, and
Sphinix were already there and used for different purposes and the
builder saw a perfect place for the pyramids to set on. As people
still dispute the age of the Sphinix, and mortuary temple, it was a
perfect place to begin. I need to receive the book, it is
interesting, as one other I found that there was no need to "lift"
anything. Pour maybe, but that is controversial as they were not
known to have that technology, but the ingredients of the stone does
have some of the same ingredients of portland cement. I asked an
engineer buddy today, and he said it should be simple to tell. Does
the 200 ton stones have chisels marks on them? Can they see where
they were taken from? There are simple tests. His answer is we still
do not know how they did it. I looked around and it's like answering
if there is a god or not. Everyone seems to have their own theory.
But, I used it for part of the story because the timeline is
questioned and the large stones look much more weathered than the
limestone or granite blocks that covered the outside but is now
pulling away and you can see where the blocks were chisled on the
inside to fit the wear of the huge stones. I'll look around and see
if I can find you when I get done with the book on here. I'll say
this, I did a lot of study on the bases, morturary, and Sphinix back
when I was writing, and I thought I had seen it all. I completely
missed this book, and it looks like it was the one I could have used.
But it is kind of like on here, everyone has their own opinion.
Regards, Ken
