Apparently Mr. Osmanagic knows a lot about Pyramids and above English text link on his page is actually his doctorate thesis.
I do speak Bosnian (language that is used on Mr. Osmanagic’s web site), and that language is very similar to Croatian and Serbian languages, so if there is a part of the text that you need translated, I might be able to help.

For beginning, I will mention that Mr. Osmanagic believes that Egyptian pyramids were built much before the Egyptian civilization. From this
www.alternativnahistorija.com..." target="_blank" class="postlink" rel="nofollow">link you can read why:

1. TO build precise complex of pyramids, you have to have leveled ground. There is only difference in 2 cm from one side to other side of Giza plateau, which covers almost 3 square kilometers. Pyramids are even more leveled, with only 1 cm from one corner to the other.
2. In Cairo’s museum you can see tools used by Egyptian workers, made from copper and bronze. But according to Mohs scale of mineral hardness it is impossible to carve stone blocks that has higher level hardness (hardness 4 - 5) and granite (hardness 5 – 6) with this tools (Hardness 3.5 – 4).
3. Impossible transport and exact match between blocks. Even if someone proves to lift a block, is it possible to do the same with primitive tools, and be able to move it in position while space to work with is limited. (2000 worker might lift a stone, but how do you place 2000 workers around the stone?)
4. Surface of pyramid was covered with special blocks with average weight of more then 10 tons. They were carved so that no even razor-blade can fit between them and they did not use any cement.
5. Egyptologists believe that Egyptians have collected soil to build ramp for higher level of pyramid. This does not work well with math, as they would need 300000 more workers to build those ramps, and it would require amount of soil equal to 7 pyramid sizes. Even if this was the case, any transportation like this would destroy corners of blocks, while every block on pyramid has nice corners.

Will continue later, if there is interest in this….

MMmmmkayyyyy.....

If you look at the FIRST messages (2005) in this thead, you find some references to a news article. Track that down and you come up with a Bosnian blog which mentions Osmanagic :
piramida.blogger.ba...

This is apparently the same hill.

Sooooo... why is he doing Yet Another Announcement on it a year later?

And, Joe, I'm suspicious about the doctoral dissertation. Have a look at the page on the "included universities" involved in the dig. WHY is there no university's archaeological department involved?

We have a College of Philosophy (!) involved with a "Chair of department of Egyptian archaeology".

We have a college of Political Science (!) involved.

We have a department involved with locating mineral resources involved.

We have several civil engineering schools and departments.

Bosnia and the rest of Europe have a number of notable archaeological schools and professors. So...why did he go all the way to Egypt for a department of a small Cairo university; a department not particularly noted for its Egyptology? And Egyptologists are not particularly familiar with writing and other artifacts in Bosnia.

Why aren't there any Bosnian archaeologists?

Yes, I'm a crankety old skeptic but I find the cherry picking of associates to be more than a little suspicious. There's a LOT of archaeologists working in the area who are very good at dating Bronze Age and earlier material:
scholar.google.com...

I think he's trying to "prove" his idea and he's afraid that if he brings in real archaeologists (they apparently certified the tunnel as old and authentic) to date the "pyramid" they're going to tell him it's not a pyramid.

Check out what Byrd said above, then read up on Osmanagic.

wikipedia link

Note that he's just an amateur archaelogist. I now think that the media ran way too quick with the story. They need some indepent, actual archaelogist to either refute or verify his claims.
