were they a buriel ground for the old kings?

 

were they a water channelling system that brought water from underground to feed the city?

 

or were they a fake God's ambition of forcing thousands of slaves to build a pyramid because they deemed it necessary to build for the glory of their image?

 

what are your personal inputs on it? if you have none, then please bring a potato and share what you currently know...

They were tombs for pharaohs and their wives.

Your posts make me question my sanity. I have no idea why, but I guess a hamster asking questions about pyramids is making me think I'm actually an exploding green creature that just wants hugs.

thank you.  please help me vote for it in the upcoming event.

the pyramids are a monument pointing toward orion's belt and the direction of the meteor stream that collapsed the previous golden age of technology on earth ~12000 years ago.  They were built as a warning to the civilization to come. So that we would get our heads out of our asses and do something about all the asteroids and fuzzy bunny.

 

they only became tombs by the later inhabitants cause they stupid.

you could also read graham's new book Magician's of the Gods that so beautifully wraps up the whole theory with all the archaeological and geological evidence.

thank you for sharing.   for your reward, i will allow you to pet my head once.....

that's cool, i'll pass.

smart man...u wouldive lost your fingers.

 

interesting websites.  quick question, on a scale from 1-10, how certain are you that these events really did take place.

[phed]

asteroid impact kicking off the younger dryas ~12000 years ago - 10

ancient monolithic monuments all being dated to the period right after the younger dryas - 10

highly advanced civilization (flying machines and what not) wiped out by asteroids - 6

advanced civilization (agriculture, ocean spanning vessels, architecture, astronomy) wiped out by asteroids  - 10

a lesson to be learned still - 10

Here is my potato... =)

 

First of all, not everyone working at building some of the most modern pyramids were slaves... Many were working at that as a way to pay their taxes. Others got paid in a number of other ways. This would apply not only to pyramid constructions but to general monument construction as well.

 

Just my 2 cents..

[angryhampster]

im not sure if taxes were around during that time? isn't it an english thing that they impose on everyone else? at least that's what my history books taught me.

[CraftyDus]

Phed
I have been devouring Graham Hancock these last 2 months
The younger frikkin dryas, the intercontinental parallels, the geology, the submerged coastal structures, the tapestry of massive efforts to remind us and warn us to prepare.

And this new volume, the violence of such an event....makes me want to clock out and find a decent huyawasca shaman in Peru.
Before it's too late.

The trouble with the theory the great pyramids at Giza are tombs is the conspicuous lack of any dead stored there.
Tombs can be found with dead interred and funeral objects everywhere for example in the valley of the kings. But not in the pyramids at Giza.
The place had massive stone monuments preceding the pharoes which some early archaeologists perhaps erroneously credited as memorials to them.
Such as the Sphinx, which was irrefutably defaced and refashioned into the head of a king. Its so old that the pyramids are closer in time to our present day than they are to it.
Flood erosion on the Sphinx indicates it is old enough to have existed when the local climate was radically different than even what it was during the much later construction of the pyramids beside it.
The ancients seem to have hoped to preserve across a great distance of human time some information in the entirety and the massiveness of the structures.
A mere monument to a single individual's vanity such as a tomb would be difficult to understand considering the astounding expense and human cost of these projects which would likely take several generations each to complete.

The place I was made aware of Hancock's books was the JRE podcast which I watch every week.

I've since bought and read a pile of his books, from the psychadelics, to the african research on the ark of the covenant, to the catastrophic younger dryas impact event.

Are you suggesting there is a limit to human hubris? I took you for a rational man.

My understanding is that the pyramids long predate the underground tombs. Considering even the limestone was stolen off the sides of the Pyramids at Giza (and that many tombs in the Valley of Kinds were looted as well), I don't think it is an unreasonable guess that ornate royal funeral objects were looted at some point in the thousands of years between interment and the present.

But the actual tombs in the valley of the kings still have an overwhelming amount of evidence that they are in fact tombs.

They are without mystery and are marked well and obviously that they are tombs complete with bodies and funerary objects.

The pyramids simply do not share these qualities. 

[angryhampster]

CraftyDus, how were the pyramids built? there's too much information on the web that I don't know where to extract my truths from anymore.

the pyramids were built were built during one life time for each pyramid. also there is a large granite sarcophagus. the reason they stopped making pyramids was because they were too expensive and attracted grave robbers. they were basically an off season public works project for farmers and such. to say that they were built by slaves is a fallacy propagated by christian and jewish literature that says that moses and his people were slaves. the pyramids from what i understand, pre dates jews in egypt by almost 1000 years if not more. also egyptian texts never mention the jews or large ethnic slave labor group. ancient egypt is probably one of the most studied things of history.

 

also to even suggest that there was a civilization more advanced that was wiped out is complete lunacy. it is fun to make up stories, but to actually suggest BS as fact is criminal. 

[angryhampster]

i thought the only time it becomes criminal by voicing your opinion was saying the holocaust never happenned.

 

now, with the pyramids, it can be criminal also?  =(

I don't think I mentioned anything about jews, slaves, or moses. Get on my level.

people have been building fuzzy bunny as long as people have been gathering. there are the serpent mounds in ohio neer where i grew up that predate the pyramids. people do fuzzy bunny because they just do weird fuzzy bunny.

you didnt but someone else had. i am always intersted in having civil arguments 

[angryhampster]

was the civil war civil?

[CraftyDus]

Large complex structures built by advanced civilizations organized into specialized societal roles that pre-date egypt are particularly exciting to me

 

They fly in the face of the dogmatic notion that Egypt was first, best, and most.

[OdinTheWise]

lets face it, egypt was not the first. but it was the greatest at the time.
