Well you have to look at the various materials. The Kings chamber is made from Rose Quartz

Nice start - completely false!

The relief chambers of the Kings Chamber are only a few feet high. The sides are constructed from limestone and granite and ceilings from roughly cut blocks of pink granite.

-www.ancientegyptonline.co.uk...

Looks like we know why the ol' beam to the aliens failed - they said "make it pink" - but the Gypo's used Granite instead of quartz - perhaps this could be our "Rosetta Stone" for the alien language - we know that the ancient Eguyptian word for "granite" is also the alien word for quartz!!

you could always google the building materials.

Hmm..and how do you think I got the Egyptian antiquities site??

Try that first. When you pull your head loose and can see the screen it will all become clear.

you can see the chamber here in the diagram. The blocks above it are indeed rose quartz. and there are several in a sequence. I never said the walls. The chamber construction goes up. all the way to the arch stones.
www.gizapyramid.com...

The diagram says nothing at all about the building materials, whereas the site I linked to says the ceiling is made of pink granite.

However I can see why you have erred - the site you linked to elsewhere refers to blocks of "rose quartz granite" - eg www.gizapyramid.com... - granite is a rock that contains at least 20% quartz....but it is not the same as quartz - the quartz in granite is invariably in miniscule crystals, and rose quartz is found as inclusions in volumes of granite.

the roof of the kings chamber is granite, not quartz, and although the granite contains quartz, saing that it IS quartz is plain wrong.

there - glad to have improved your knowledge

I'll need to check the book and get back to you on that. Here is the Synopsis of the book:

Synopsis
In Forbidden History, writer and editor J Douglas Kenyon has chosen 42 essays that have appeared in the bimonthly journal Atlantis Rising to provide readers with an overview of the core positions of key thinkers in the field of ancient mysteries and alternative history. The 17 contributors include, among others, Rand Flem-Ath, Frank Joseph, Christopher Dunn and Will Hart, all of whom challenge the scientific establishment to re-examine its underlying premises in understanding ancient civilisations and open up to the possibility of meaningful debate around alternative theories of humanity's true past. Each of the essays builds upon the work of the other contributors. Kenyon has carefully crafted his vision and selected writings in six areas: Darwinism Under Fire, Earth Changes - Sudden or Gradual, Civilisation's Greater Antiquity, Ancestors from Space, Ancient High Tech, and The Search for Lost Origins. He explores the most current ideas in the Atlantis debate, the origins of the Pyramids, and many other controversial themes.
The book serves as an excellent introduction to hitherto suppressed and alternative accounts of history as contributors raise questions about the origins of civilisation and humanity, catastrophism, and ancient technology. The collection also includes several articles that introduce, compare, contrast, and complement the theories of other notable authors in these fields, such as Zecharia Sitchin, Paul La Violette, John Michell, and John Anthony West.
