Writes Peter Tompkins in Secrets <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Great</strong> <strong>Pyramid</strong>: “The most ancient<br />
tradition about <strong>the</strong> <strong>Great</strong> <strong>Pyramid</strong> is that it was erected to memorialize a tremendous<br />
cataclysm in <strong>the</strong> planetary system which affected <strong>the</strong> globe with fire and flooding.”<br />
He continues: “Arab authors recount that <strong>the</strong> pyramids were built before <strong>the</strong><br />
deluge by a king who had a vision that <strong>the</strong> world would be turned upside down, and that<br />
<strong>the</strong> stars would fall from <strong>the</strong> sky. According to <strong>the</strong>se Arab sources, <strong>the</strong> king placed in<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>Pyramid</strong>s accounts <strong>of</strong> all he had learned from <strong>the</strong> wisest men <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> times, including<br />
<strong>the</strong> secrets <strong>of</strong> astronomy, <strong>com</strong>plete with tables <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> stars, geometry, and physics,<br />
treatises on precious stones, and certain machines, including celestial spheres and<br />
terrestrial globes. They also speak <strong>of</strong> ‘malleable glass’” (p.217).<br />
The greatest “deluge” in human history which would fulfill this prediction was<br />
<strong>the</strong> Noachian Flood!<br />
The earliest Jewish report is in Josephus, who says <strong>the</strong> Sethites were inventors <strong>of</strong><br />
a wisdom which dealt with celestial bodies and <strong>the</strong>ir order in <strong>the</strong> heavens, and that to<br />
preserve <strong>the</strong>ir wisdom for all mankind <strong>the</strong>y built two monuments – one brick, <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r<br />
stone – <strong>the</strong> stone one being extant in Egypt in Josephus’ time. Josephus relates in<br />
Antiquities <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Jews:<br />
“Now, Adam, who was <strong>the</strong> first man, and made out <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> earth, (for our<br />
discourse must now be about him,) after Abel was slain, and Cain fled<br />
away on account <strong>of</strong> his murder, was solicitous for posterity, and had a.<br />
vehement desire <strong>of</strong> children, he being two hundred and thirty years old;<br />
after which time he lived o<strong>the</strong>r seven hundred, and <strong>the</strong>n died. He had<br />
indeed many o<strong>the</strong>r children, but Seth in particular. As for <strong>the</strong> rest, it<br />
would be tedious to name <strong>the</strong>m; I will <strong>the</strong>refore only endeavour to give<br />
an account <strong>of</strong> those that proceeded from Seth.<br />
“Now this Seth, when he was brought up, and came to those years in which<br />
he could discern what was good, became a virtuous man. and as he was<br />
himself <strong>of</strong> an excellent character, so did he leave children behind him who<br />
imitated his virtues. All <strong>the</strong>se proved to be <strong>of</strong> good dispositions. They also<br />
inhabited <strong>the</strong> same country without dissensions, and in a happy condition,<br />
without any misfortunes falling upon <strong>the</strong>m, till <strong>the</strong>y died.<br />
“They also were <strong>the</strong> inventors <strong>of</strong> that peculiar sort <strong>of</strong> wisdom which is<br />
concerned with <strong>the</strong> heavenly bodies and <strong>the</strong>ir order. And that <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
inventions might not be lost before <strong>the</strong>y were sufficiently known, upon<br />
Adam’s prediction that <strong>the</strong> world was to be DESTROYED at one time by<br />
<strong>the</strong> force <strong>of</strong> fire, and at ano<strong>the</strong>r time by <strong>the</strong>.violence and quantity <strong>of</strong> water,<br />
THEY MADE TWO PILLARS; <strong>the</strong> one <strong>of</strong> brick, <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r <strong>of</strong> STONE:<br />
<strong>the</strong>y inscribed <strong>the</strong>ir discoveries on <strong>the</strong>m both, that in case <strong>the</strong> pillar<br />
<strong>of</strong> brick should be destroyed by <strong>the</strong> flood, <strong>the</strong> pillar <strong>of</strong> stone might<br />
remain, and exhibit those discoveries to mankind; and also inform <strong>the</strong>m<br />
that <strong>the</strong>re was ano<strong>the</strong>r pillar <strong>of</strong> brick erected by <strong>the</strong>m. Now this remains<br />
in <strong>the</strong> land <strong>of</strong> Siriad to this day” (Antiquities, book 1, chapter 2, section 3).
