·      Some of the wonders of the Great Pyramid "Khufu"


The mathematician "John Taylor" says: The ancient Egyptians knew the approximate ratio (pi) and we found it represented in the formative forms of the pyramid, if we divide the perimeter of the pyramid by its height, we find (pi) =3.14, as well as the perimeter of the king room by its height =3.14.


It was also known that the weight of the earth is the weight of the Great Pyramid 100 million times.


It was also discovered that the location of the pyramid lies in the center of gravity of the continents, that is, at the intersection of latitude 30 with longitude 30.


Astronomer "Howard Weiss" says in 1837: If one of you stood beneath the descending corridor inside the pyramid and looked through the original aperture as if looking through a telescope, you would see "Sirius star" appear just before sunrise, in just one day of the year.


Thus, the ancient Egyptians determined the beginning of the solar year, which we are still following this until now.
