I'm afraid i'm a realist........ and phrases such as "uniquely ancient Egypt was
'SOMEHOW' able to revive itself"
"most academics believe" [not all so it must be only some unless you can quote a
correct % proving it's MOST]
"sudden catastrophic climate change" and was reborn
"Now i wonder how ancient Egypt was able to revivicate itself. Whilst most other cultures
didn't."
"There are big clues" [BIG CLUES ARE JUST THAT. CLUES NOT ANSWERS]
"And if you are a people that can quarry millions of 2.5 tons limestone blocks why do you
imagine it would be any more difficult for them to do the reverse" [Well it would depend
on the extent of the catastrophy.even these days we have landslides, mudslides, earthquakes
and floods wiping out whole villages along with implements and tools]
None of those 'phrases' are in any way decisive and in no way PROVE anything they are
unclear and vague leaving too much room to maneuver.

If I might add something to this thread.
There has been an abundance of theories regarding the building and purpose of the pyramids but a point that has never been addressed is the finished product. After it was completely encased in facing stones, which had a concave surface on each of the four sides, there was no entrance whatsoever and no outlets for the purported air-shafts (nor inlets either) that were again purported to point directly to various places in the heavens. So, after twenty years of construction, what were they supposed to represent?
If there were no entrances or outlets in the finished product then the internal construction is meaningless.
These were discovered centuries later and only after an entrance was blasted in.
They are certainly not tombs.
There are no hieroglyphics inside to give us a clue as to why they were built.
There were hieroglyphics on the outside (perhaps these could have explained everything) but these disappeared through the result of earthquakes and 'asset stripping' to provide building materials for other projects.
The finished product though remains an enigma which has never really been addressed.

Hey there mate if you thought I was a bible man then you assumed wrongly I mearly drew to your attention to the indifferance to what is known and what should be known, and yes I use the bible as a refrance point and its a bloody good one, but listen let me guess that you no longer have that dog in your introduction given the date attached to you site or is that your birth date, that looks like one hell of a smart dog good looking to,I have dogs and they are my mates through thick or thin, and they feature pritty big in history being the Salookies from apon the walls of the Ancients, they also loved there cainine friends , story has it that they have documented 27000 years with cohabatation with dogs

Very good points. Care to offer any speculations as to why? Perhaps the finished product was meant to be "sealed"?

And on your subject the book of recorded logistics the Bible, is no help, and further which I find somewhat strange by it conspcious absents, there is apart from just one etching of Ramsies 2, there is a total black out, when it comes to any pyramids, not one word any where

Isn’t Bulla suggesting that the pyramids were a device or machine used for agriculture? I believe he suggested the concave exterior was a part of the operation of the device. I may be wrong.
