been visible down the Descending Passage and another star, Alcyone of the Pleiades,
would have been crossing the meridian in the vertical plane of the Grand Gallery of the
Pyramid.
Smyth’s other observations and measurements confirmed in great detail the
theories of Taylor. However, he found that his results produced an astounding value for
pi in the Great Pyramid's proportions—the value of 3.14159!
Smyth also found, in re-computing the height of the Great Pyramid, that Taylor's
figure was 6 inches too short, and that the Pyramid rose 10 units of height for ever 9
units of width. Multiplying the height by 10 to the ninth power, he came up with
91,840,000 – an excellent figure for the radius of the earth's orbit around the sun in
miles!
Was this mere chance
Another extraordinary number found by students of the Pyramid was the sum of
the diagonals of the base, which were computed to be 25,826.68 pyramid inches – a
very close approximation of the number of solar years in a “great year” – that is, the
length of years it takes for the earth to make a complete gyration in its wobble which
causes precession of the equinoxes.
Was this just coincidence All these fantastic mathematical correlations indicate
that as Josephus declared, the wise and righteous men before the Deluge built a
repository of arcane knowledge which later generations have begun to unravel and
explore, becoming more and more amazed as the discoveries grow. There is no doubt
but that God Himself inspired the men of old to accomplish this monumental project –
something no other generation has done.
According to David Davidson, the builders of the Great Pyramid must have been
deeply familiar with the working of natural law. He claimed it was evident that if you
know the earth's distance from the sun and the length of the sidereal year in seconds,
you can figure the rate at which the earth is falling toward the sun; you can figure out
from this the specific gravity of the earth, the sun, the earth and moon combined, and
even the speed of light.
Says Tompkins: “To Davidson the mathematics of the Pyramid indicate that the
former civilization was more highly skilled in the science of gravitational astronomyand
therefore in the mathematical basis of the mechanical arts and sciences – than
modern civilization” (page 133).
Davidson concluded that it has “taken man thousands of years to discover by
experiment what he knew originally by a surer and simpler method.” Davidson
surmised that the Pyramid was built to immortalize the science of that time and preserve
it for another civilization far into the future. It was created to be a sort of “time
