Giza-Orion - Further Evidence of the Correlation

It has long been shown that within the Orion Correlation Theory (OCT) - first proposed by Bauval/Gilbert in their controversial book, The Orion Mystery - that the correlation between the three belt stars and the three main Gizamids is not precise. It has also been argued (principally by Robert Bauval) that the pyramid of Menkaure was placed in error on the Giza plateau with respect to its stellar counterpart, the belt star Mintaka.

The diagram below, however, demonstrates that it is more likely that it is in fact Khafre's Pyramid (G2) that was placed in error from its stellar counterpart, the belt star Al Nilam. (Note: the 3 red dots in the diagram indicate the belt stars).

By circumscribing the 3 most extreme outer corners of the Giza pyramids we find that the belt star Al Nilam falls almost precisely on the centre of this circumscribed circle. (And remember - this is the very same circle where we find that the Sphinx also has been placed on the circle):

We also find that the southeast corners of all 3 pyramids now lie on a 47* SW/NE diagonal line. Furthermore, a diagonal can now be drawn through the centres of G1/G2 which then meets the NW corner of G3.

Furthermore, notice how - with G2 repositioned onto Al Nilam (with G1/G3 as fulcrum) the quarter lines bisect the 3 Queens of Menkaure!!!!!!

All of this conforms to the design technique shown here with the exception that it is G2 that is moved from its original position and NOT G3:

Have you forwarded your discoveries to Robert Bauval?

If so, what are his comments?

Hello Skyfloating,

I am in the process of doing just that. I also have further evidence of this particular idea but won't be posting until I have cheked out some things first with Robert.

This diagram - to my mind - is truly astonishing. Who would have thought that circumscribing the 3 most outer pyramid corners with a circle would find the centre of that circle smack bang on Al Nilam's position with G1/G3 as fulcrum. And also on this circle sits the Sphinx!

Quite incredible. To put this in perspective - throuw 5 pebbles randomly to the ground and try circumscribing a circle through 4 pebbles whilst the fifth pebble lies in the circle's centre. Quite simply this design is beyond chance. And when we add to this that the 'geo-stellar' fingerprint produced by the belt stars actually defines the base dimensions of the 3 main Gizamids places the correspondence beyond question. And when we add to this that the 2 sets of so-called 'Queens pyramids' serve as precessional maximum and minimum culmination markers, we have to ask ourselves - how much more evidence is required for this theory to be accepted by mainstream Egyptology?

There is now absolutely no doubt in my mind that there exists an unequivocal Orion belt influence in the design of the pyramids at Giza and orthodox Egyptology must now take cognisance of this new compelling evidence.

Best wishes,

Scott Creighton

Star for sure.

If these maps and everything else are all correct (scale, etc) which for some reason I trust they are, Scott, I truly hope your work it taken for legit.

Ive read almost all your stuff and to me, nobody mind you, this is all brilliantly worked out and easy to follow if you take the time. Though, my drafting career might help with seeing all the diagrams and being able to visualizes it all.


I wish you good luck again, and hope to read more about your work in the future.
