I agree analysis of any residue is key to proving this sort of oddball theory. I believe
one box has a stain along the inside side, and some drip-like stains are visible on the
outside of a lid and a box. A theory is a special liquid was used to create the glass-like
smooth surfaces.
Given the one box and lid left in the hallway, unfinished and unplaced in it's final
resting place means the box builders left aburptly. It was the pre-dynastic stone
builders ( megalithic architects ) that worked on the contents of the Serapeum of
Saqqaram and the dynastic Egyptians found the store of boxes and adopted them
as the ancient civilizations are apt to do with megalithic structures and carved
crude heiroglyphs on the outside of some of the boxes.

It is a real mystery what the intended purpose of the 175 ton granite boxes was,
as they were pilfered in antiquity. I cannot imagine a purpose but surely the
ancient stone builders did.

The Inca adopted the inca road, in reality part of the pre-Incan megalith builders
network of roads leading through the sacred valley next to Cuscos.
It is an example where the foolish archeaologist insist Puma Punku was
made with copper tools.
Some of the boxes in the Serapeum at Saqqara have surfaces with 'bubbles'.
Theory is the boxes were cast in place.
Why thieves would be interested in an empty 100 ton granite box and 75
ton lid is beyond me, and being unfinished, it is probable it was left
in situ by the builders.

material and left it in the hallway where it is today. Maybe they moved it
into the hallway but were scared off by bulls. Egyptologist today think
bulls (sera) were buried in the boxes hence Serapeum. Buried birds are
found around the Giza area so burying bulls isn't a stretch.

Do you mind posting a few bullet points surrounding your theory? I can't see the PDF online right now, and can't download it at the moment either.
ETA: I did read the AO link, and it seems like an interesting theory. My question, of course, is whether or not there have been tests of any traces of chemicals left in the "sarcophagi," and if so, what were the results? If the fermenting liquid were left to just dry up, as you noted, which is why there were bull bones inside when discovered, then it seems like there would be massive traces and probably readily evident remaining solids from the fermentation process inside the boxes as well.
Has any of that been discovered/recorded?

what I think would be really cool though if someone took those components I listed in the text, dumped those in the granite coffer, closed the lid, pile stones on top and watch what happen. Interesting experiment!

Pictures of the bubbles, it looks like the box was in a concrete form:
Sorry the pics are so blurry. The inside surfaces of the indentations
shown are smooth. At least one box also has these 'bubbles' as well
as this and maybe other lids.
Mention the hard copper found alloyed, that is harder than pure copper, is
definitely hard enought to carve crude niches in granite. But the niches and
Andes crosses at Tiwanku are perfect, recessed, angles and beautiful. It
is impossible to accomplish this level of granite workmanship with bronze.

Egyptologists are the gate keepers in that place, and I do not think they will open their doors so easy for scientists, researchers.
