<HTML>Let's start. As you can see from Klemms "Steine und Steinbrüche..." they have identified the quarries for the pyramid blocks by chemical fingerprints. They used, like for the Memmnos Colossi phase-diagrams in which they measured the ratio between several trace elements: Sr/Mg, Sr/Rb, Zn/Cu/Pb, Mn/Co/Ni.
Due to this method they could identify 3 of the 4 quarries used for the great pyramid, 2 of the 3 for Kaphere (the 3rd is identical to the yet not foud 4th for Chufu) and the single used Menkaure-quarry.
When you go to the quarry regions you will soon see that the layers of soft rock are thin and relatively untouched, whereas the hard rock was quarried massively. From the simple numbers (volume of the pyramid compared with the volume of the quarries) you can see, too, that the only possible source for the stones or "compounds" are the layers of hard stones.
Now I have here several stones from the Giza-quarries. 5 from different regions from the main quarry, 3 from the Kaphere-quarry on the north-west-side of this pyramid, 3 from the Menkaure-quarry.
These stones are HARD. They have no intentions to break apart in water, regardles how hard I shake them in a plastic bag filled with water.
So the stones must have been pulverized some way. And here are the questions:
- How was this done? Because there are no breccia in the pyramid blocks the stones must have been pulverized down to the microfossil level
- Why aren't the fossils shattered?
- How long do you think it would need for 6 men to pulverize 2.5 tons of stone?
- When the Egyptians could pound this amount of material to dust, why is it harder to pulverize only the material in the trenches between blocks in the quarry?
- What is the advantage of pulverizing Millions of tons of stones compared with pulverizing only small trenches and break out the stone to transport it?
- What is the advantage of carrying wet mud against pulling a sled? (physics: 14 men can pull 2.5 tons with ease, to carry the same weight you need 50 men). And if sleds were used to transport the mud: Where is the advantage over transporting whole blocks???
