Rather the question is; knowing that the AEs aligned the SE corners so precisely why do you believe they were also innacurately correlating each pyramid to a particular belt star in Orion? As you have experience working in construction I wonder whether it's common practise to position buildings both precisely for certain geometrical considerations and at the same time imprecisely to create an artistic resemblance with something else.

As Anthony <a href=""></a>
<a href="[www.thehallofmaat.com]; - had Menkaure's pyramid been built to the same dimensions as Khufu's and Khafre's there would be absolutely no basis for the Orion correlation.

I'm particularly baffled as to how you can accept that these 3 pyramids were positioned precisely on a 45 degree NE - SW line and yet they are also innacurately correlated with the position of 3 stars.

I'm also still waiting to hear your response as to why you decided s3h = the constellation of Orion. John Legon states that we cannot ascertain whether the AEs thought of Osiris as a constellation or just a single star. Indeed if we accept that Isis=Sirius wouldn't Osiris also be represented by just one star?

Rather your preconceived hypothesis of an admitedly imprecise correlation dovetails neatly with your own highly selective interpretation of the PTs. Weird huh?

I'm also interested in whether you believe the Giza pyramids were constructed as tombs for Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure. If not then can you please explain how you can use the funerary texts from later pyramids to bolster your case for the Orion correlation theory. If you agree they were tombs could you drop GH a line and suggest he gets round to correcting his novels soon.
