In principle I like the idea. But there is major problems with it.

[www.ronaldbirdsall.com]
9068.8 +-0.65
[www.ronaldbirdsall.com]
5776 +-7.0
(9068.8 / 2 / 5776) * 28 = 21.9812 [appr. 22 fingers to 28]

[www.ronaldbirdsall.com]
8474.9 +-1.5
[www.ronaldbirdsall.com]
5664 +-13.0
(8474.9 / 2 / 5664) * 28 = 20.9478 [appr. 21 fingers to 28]

[www.ronaldbirdsall.com]
4153.6 +-3.0
[www.ronaldbirdsall.com]
2564 +-15
2580.8 +-2.0
(4153.6 / 2 / 2564) * 28 = 22.6796 [Eh ?]
(4153.6 / 2 / 2581) * 28 = 22.5302 [Eh ?]

If the Seked was the main principle of pyramid construction and its use existed with khufu and then with Khafre.

Why didn't Menkaure use it ?

My conclusion is either the pyramid gradient is seked based always or it is not seked based.
Menkaures pyramid is not seked based. So how can it be the defining principle of a pyramid ? And if the pyramid is not defined by the seked what is it defined by that meets the same or similar ratios ?

No sweeping under the carpet please. This is a serious problem for the Seked as fundamental to pyramid design/construction.

Best,

Mick
