Who built the pyramids?

Post Reply New Topic

The pyramids were obviously built by vampires. Think about it. Vampires have enhanced physical strength, making it very easy to lift heavy blocks, and they live a really long time, so will end up learning far more building techniques than any mortal ever could. Plus lots of mythology talks about gods who are immortal, some of whom drink blood. Obviously, the fact that we can't explain every little detail of how certain primitive structures were built is conclusive proof that they were build by an advanced blood-drinking sub-species of humans who became the basis of our vampire legends, and who for some reason, despite being really super-advanced, liked to build primitive things rather than skyscrapers.

Here is a chronology of the 2000 years of the Holocene Climatic Optimum, during which the Great Pyramid at Giza was built. "Approximate Year" means the given year, plus or minus 10 years.

4000 B.C. (Approximate Year) Beginning of the Holocene Climatic Optimum, when temperatures reached several degrees Celsius higher than the present, and mean sea level was higher by 5 to 6 metres.

4000 B.C. (Approximate Year) Harps and Flutes played in Egypt.

4000 B.C. (Approximate Year) Small populations of American Mastodon die off in places like Utah and Michigan

3900 B.C. (Approximate Year) Beginning of the "5.9 ka Event", which was one of the most intense aridification events during the Holocene. It ended the Neolithic Subpluvial and probably initiated the most recent desiccation of the Sahara desert. Thus, it also triggered worldwide migration to river valleys, such as from central North Africa to the Nile valley, which eventually led to the emergence of the first complex, highly organised, state-level societies.

3761 B.C. (10/07) Hebrew calendar's creation date.

3600 B.C. (Approximate Year) BEGINNING OF THE BRONZE AGE. Humans begin using bronze (Bronze is a mixture copper and tin. Brass is a mixture of copper and zinc).

3500 B.C. (Approximate Year) The Sumerians develop cuneiform writing and the Egyptians develop hieroglyphic writing.

3500 B.C. (Approximate Year) First known use of wheeled carts and river boats.

3500 B.C. (Approximate Year) Lyres and Double Clarinets played in Egypt.

3114 B.C. (08/11) Beginning of the 1st Baktun (Mayan Creation Date), in the Maya Long Count, on August 11 or 13.

3100 B.C. (Approximate Year) Narmer or Menes, first Pharaoh of the newly unified Egypt.

3000 B.C. (Approximate Year) Beginning of the Early Jomon period, characterized by the high sea level (2 to 3 meters higher than the modern day) and a significant population increase. This period saw a rise in complexity in the design of pit houses, the most commonly used method of housing at the time.

3000 B.C. (Approximate Year) First known use of candles.

3000 B.C. (Approximate Year) First known use of Bronze for making weapons and armor.

3000 B.C. (Approximate Year) Beginning of Indus Valley Civilization.

3000 B.C. (Approximate Year) A Chinese court musician cuts first bamboo pipe.

2800 B.C. (Approximate Year) Egyptians create the first accurate calendar (the solar calendar) which is still used today.

2686 B.C. (Approximate Year) Construction of the first pyramid at Giza begins, using tools of bronze, stone, and wood. The pyramid was built so that the circle whose radius is equal to the height of the pyramid has a circumference equal to the perimeter of the base (e.g., 1760 cubits around and 280 cubits in height. 1760/280 = 6.286, which is 2 x 3.143, or the value of Pi correct to 2 decimal places or 0.04 percent).

2610 B.C. (Approximate Year) Completion of the first Egyptian pyramid.

2500 B.C. (To 1475 B.C.; Approximate Years) Nubia begins its Kerma phase, lasting about 1025 years.

2500 B.C. (Approximate Year) First known use of glass; Egyptians use glass to make trinkets, but not for drinking glasses or other useful purposes.

2500 B.C. (Approximate Year) First known literary work; "Gilgamesh" written by the Sumerians. It is the story of a Sumerian King named Gilgamesh and it includes a great flood story that may have been the inspiration for the Biblical story of Noah.

2500 B.C. (Approximate Year) Chinese music moves to a five-tone scale.

2500 B.C. (Approximate Year) The last members of a dwarf race of Woolly Mammoths vanish from Wrangel Island near Alaska

2200 B.C. (Approximate Year) Approximate start of the "4.2 ka Event"; the 4.2 kiloyear BP aridification event, which was one of the most severe climatic events of the Holocene period in terms of impact on cultural upheaval. Starting in ˜2200 BC, it probably lasted the entire 22nd century BC. It is very likely to have caused the collapse of the Old Kingdom in Egypt as well as the Akkadian Empire in Mesopotamia. The drought may have also initiated southeastward habitat tracking within the Harappan cultural domain.

2136 B.C. (10/22) Chinese astronomers record a solar eclipse.

2100 B.C. (Approximate Year) Beginning of Xia Dynasty in China.

2052 B.C. (Approximate Year) Beginning of Middle Kingdom in Egypt, lasting 477 years.

2000 B.C. (Approximate Year) End of the Early Jomon period. Beginning of the Late Jomon period.

2000 B.C. (Approximate Year) End of the Holocene Climatic Optimum (between 4000 B.C. and 2000 BC), when temperatures reached several degrees Celsius higher than the present, and mean sea level was higher by 5 to 6 metres.

Excerpt from "NOVA: Who Built The Pyramids?"

In a NOVA experiment we found that 12 men could pull a one-and-a-half-ton block over a slick surface with great ease. One of the things that most impressed me, though, was the fact that in 21 days, 12 men in bare feet, living out in the Eastern Desert, opened a new quarry in about the time we needed stone for our NOVA Pyramid, and in 21 days they quarried 186 stones. Now, they did it with an iron cable and a winch that pulled the stone away from the quarry wall, and all their tools were iron. But other than that they did it by hand.



So I said, taking just a raw figure, if 12 men in bare feet - they lived in a lean-to shelter, day and night, out there - if they can quarry 186 stones in 21 days, let's do the simple math and see, just in a very raw simplistic calculation, how many men were required to deliver 340 stones a day, which is what you would have to deliver to the Khufu Pyramid to build it in 20 years. And it comes out to between 400 and 500 men. Now, I was bothered by the iron tools, especially the iron winch that pulled the stone away from the quarry walls, so I said, let's put in an additional team of 20 men, so that 12 men become 32, and now let's run the equation. Well, it turns out that even if you give great leeway for the iron tools, all 340 stones could have been quarried in a day by something like 1,200 men. And that's quarried locally at Giza - most of the stone is local stone.

Overall a pyramid is not very impressive architecturally speaking, it's the simplest way to built something in height without collapsing. (It is very resistant after all.) Cathedrals are more impressives, and they definetely been built by human, and contrary to pyramids, we don't know how to make them today. (The secrets have been lost.)

Egyptian people or their slaves.

Not people from another planet.

Assuming you believe in people from other planets.
...Or not.
It wasn't built by them.
