Ancient Civilisations:

Six Great Enigmas

By WILL HART & ROBERT BERRINGER We stand today at an unprecedented turning point in human history. In recent years two versions of ancient history have formed. One, we shall call ‘alternative’ history, the other we shall refer to as ‘official’ history. The former ponders over a variety of anomalies and tries to make sense out of the corpus of evidence, i.e., the pyramids and timelines, why they were built, by whom and when. The latter conducts digs, catalogues pottery shards, and tries to defend its proposal there are no enigmas, and virtually everything is explained.

At one point perhaps as late as fifteen years ago these two camps seem to be engaged in an informal dialogue. That all changed after, 1) the Great Sphinx redating controversy caught Egyptologists off guard and, 2) the impact of Chris Dunn’s book The Giza Power Plant: Technologies of Ancient Egypt at the end of the last decade.

There is no more dialogue and no more polite, gloves on debate. The proponents of ‘official’ history have taken an increasingly political and ideological approach to the issue. They now do little more than offer pronouncements of the historical ‘truth’ on the one hand, and denounce of all those who dare challenge officialdom on the other.

In this context we offer evidence that our ‘scholars’, the gatekeepers who control our institutions of ‘higher learning’, refuse to consider.

The Great Pyramid – Precision Engineering

This colossal structure, the last of the seven ancient wonders and the largest stone building in the world, still provokes awe, controversy and a plethora of theories that inspire bitter debate to this day. Instead of going over the well-established mysteries, we would like to shine new light on this important enigma that appears out of place in ‘Stone Age’ Egypt.

The real challenge the Great Pyramid still poses to us in the opening decade of the Third Millennium is the physical plant itself. Theorists have gone on endlessly speculating about how it was built and the metaphysical, cultural and religious significance and/or symbolism behind its construction. Though several authors have offered tantalising possibilities, none have been conclusively proven.

The mystery remains unsolved.

To begin with, the massive size – the staggering volume and weight of the building blocks – remain problematic. With an estimated 2.3 million blocks with a weight of about 4 million tons, the pyramid is two-thirds the mass of the Hoover Dam. The sheer size and the numbers of blocks that had to be quarried and moved into place, presents numerous architectural, construction and engineering headaches.

These issues have been raised time and again, yet are still unsettled. It is time to move on and define the even more difficult issues. We consider the core ‘hard’ problems to be those that reflect precision engineering and assembly line manufacturing accomplished on a massive scale. The primitive tools scenario concocted by Egyptologists does not explain the following tasks:

1. Creating precision-cut casing blocks weighing 16 tons, fitted together and held by a super-glue mortar that maintained a tight seal forming a nearly seamless shell. 2. Leveling the 13-acre limestone bedrock base to a degree of accuracy only recently achieved with laser technology. 3. Squaring the base to True North with minimal deviation. 4. Excavating the ‘Descending Passage’ 350 feet into solid bedrock at a 26-degree angle while keeping the tunnel arrow-straight for its length. 5. Bringing the massive 48-story pyramid together around complex internal structures, retaining the true shape to enable the builders to form the apex. (These internal structures include four enigmatic ventilation shafts and a coffer in the King’s Chamber that is too large to have been moved through the opening. It shows evidence of having been cut with a jewel-tip saw.) 6. Extensive usage of different types of machined granite inside the Great Pyramid chambers.

Interesting find.

I found the second enigma most interesting, so far. That is the one that relates to dogs descending from wolves. The article indicates that scientists don't believe there was a naturally occuring mutation because of the stringent pecking order in wolfdom.

For all the hoopla about 'pecking orders', the alpha males and females......can anyone explain why now, in less than 10 years, the wolfnuts have caused over 300 breeding pairs to be in the tri states of Idaho - Wyoming - Montana. Note: these 300 were NOT imported.

It has been shown that packs have split up and started new packs. So much for the alpha business.

I believe the reason for this, as it has been borne out in other studies, is that when, say for instance, a coyote pair move into an area where there are no natural predators but adequate foodsources, they produce larger than normal litters of offspring.

I know for a fact, having lived there, that in western Montana we saw female mountain lions having more than one or two cubs. Further, for these solitary animals, approximately a mile and a half from, where I lived, in a ravine across the river, according to federal and state game people, there were at least 3 adult cats, i.e., mother, a 3-year old, a 2 year old, and her current year almost grown cats.

It is my understanding that Dingos are separate from wolves, although I have read varrying accounts on this. Perhaps begining first in the Middle East and/or Asia and then migrating to Australia and North America.

There are sooooooo many questions like this I have lined up for my Maker!
