There would be some smaller stones left from either method, but your site is a more feasible argument for the precision in cutting, the relative ease of construction.
I suppose I'll encounter many theories and controversies and have to sort it out and not completely solving it. It was interesting your site claims the wheel hadn't been invented yet. If so, it wasn't too long before it was.
I actually, when prodded, remembered enough physice to understand how the levers worked, but I never was good at spatial diagrams, a diagram of the view from the top was too much for tonight.
Then I got sidetracked when I read the GP was the only remaining edifice of the seven wonders of the ancient world. So I had to go look up the rest thinking the Temple in Jerusalem (no) and Hanging Gardens (yes but may have been in Ninevah) and the rest are mostly gods or burial monuments.
I should just keep my musings out of it for now. Thank you for the link.
ASB, I had to look up where you got your screen name, Roman senator, consul, philosopher, b 480 AD I think. Also saw a couple of your posts here about your book on EMP. That is one subject on C2C that is scientific. It is George Noory's activist endeavor. Also saw your book and author. Can't do much more tonight but will check out some reviews on amazon.
EMP's are one scary subject and only the strong and mentally equipped people could prepare and withstand the chaos of such a cataclysmic event, either manmade or through solar flares or other natural occurrences.
Site mentions that Imhotep invented a liquid stone formula 5000 ya - problem is that the Pyramid of Djoser and Imhotep may be far newer that the Giza complex, not the other way around.
All modern Egyptology is based on a linear progression that must fit the formula conceived in the early 18th Century, else any data outside of that formula is either distorted, discarded, or ignored, even prohibited. Careers and much money depend on this formula working and being believed in by the unwashed.
The wheel may not have been around in Old Kingdom times, but there is nothing to prove that Old Kingdom Egyptians built the Giza complex in the first place. Rather there is more evidence that the “Westerners”, whoever they were, built the complex - as they ruled from Mauritania to just east of the Nile delta until conquered by the southerners - from Upper Egypt - Djoser, Imhotep, and the guys - long after the complex is acknowledged to have been built.
It could well be that the Westerners had the wheel, but there is no way to find out as the western area they ruled is far too dangerous to enter - let alone explore, or buried under hundreds of feel of the Nile delta mud.
