Maddas, lets keep in mind or also include that the Egyptian's were not alone in knowing this.

The Mayans, the Indus of India, the people/civilization that built Angkor Wat, just a few for starters. The ruins at Angkor Wat also show a 10,500 BC Orion correlation as do some temple structures in the Mayan areas (can't remember name). Also note, that Robert Bauval has actually changed/pushed back the 10500 BC 'theory' to 11,500 BC.

the egyptians built the pyramids however they did not come up with the plans and the tech. to build it this was passed down by a more ancient civilization

And what ancient civilization might you be elluding to??

And what would your evidence for this assumption be. I am assuming that it is an assumption.

I think you are right Maddas...that it was an assumption stated as a fact.

I think there is a good deal of circumstantial evidence to keep this hypothesis on the table, but unless we're fixing to hear that the high chancellor is the sole survivor of the ancient civilization...

I don't believe he KNOWS anymore than the rest of us.

Yes, but irrespective of the origins of the map...it points to the fact that within SOME civilization's existence that land was mappable! And THAT is undeniable fact...

my hypothesis is a very logical conclusion to the question of who built the pyramids due to the fact there is some evidence that the egyptians bulit the pyriminds despite the fact they had not even discovered the wheel yet this leads me to believe they were influenced by a more advanced civ. than themselves i don't what civ. that might be and im not saying it's atlantis i just don't think the egyptians were developed enough to design and build such a monument without the help of an outside force

I think I have asked this many moons ago in this same thread, or maybe one similar.

Where is your proof that the Egyptians did not know of the wheel? Have you located some secret Egyptian document that states...sure wish we had something round to roll things on. Or have you found a lone survivor of the ancient Egyptian civilization?

This statement is unfounded.

there has been no evidence found that suggest the egyptians knew of the wheel around the time the pyramids were suppost to have been built

if the egyptians had known about the wheel they would have left pictures on the walls of monuments or tombs or we would have found something that provides proof they knew of the wheel

Hmmm... I believe human beings are quite remarkable creatures, and should never be underestimated. Sure, there is a slue of extraordinary mathmatical data that shows relationships between the pyramids and other things. But look at the fake crop circles. They are made with geometric precision and all that other mathmatical nonsense...those people are not geniuses. I think its much more likely that the Egyptians constructed the pyramids. You're forgetting, these are the people that were able to perform successful brain surgery... with chisels.

there is a difference between performing brain surgery and cutting a whole in a persons skull to releive pressure it wasn't what i would call brain surgery

Hmm...cutting...skull...in order to relieve pressure. Sounds like surgery to me.

It's getting racy between these two fellas, Handbags at the ready

As for the wheel... I'm almost positive I've read various texts that talk about Pharaohs riding in chariots. And I'm not discussing myths about Egyptian deities. There are (if i remember correctly) historical texts that talk about egyptian chariots.

your an idiot im not saying they never has the wheel, however they had not discoverd the whell in the time period when the pyramids are suppost to have been built why don't you read what i said before you start saying crap

sorry about the spelling errors i was typing fast

Maybe you ought to apologize for calling echo an idiot just because he doesn't agree with you instead of worrying about whether your typos offended anybody.

It really doesn't lend much credibility to your intelligence to call some one an idiot in a discussion...

im didn't call him an idiot just becuase he doesn't agree with me i don't really care that he doesn't agree with me I called him an idoit because he comes to conclusions without reading what i said
