GC: No other advanced civilisation in Robert's theory - You are thinking of another related theory - Better to understand the theory first before criticizing.
SC: Graham - one of the criticisms levelled at the OCT in the past was that it did not take account of the other pyramid structures at Giza. The GOCT resolves this by presenting the 2 sets of so-called 'Queens' Pyramids' depicting the precessional motion of the belt stars (i.e. at maximum and minimum culmination). Now, it is one thing making a simple eye-to-ground representation of the stars from the sky onto the ground at Giza. However, the precession of the so-called Queens demonstrated in the GOCT (link below) presents a whole new scenario. This is not a simple eye-to-ground representation because the representations of the belt stars through the 'Queens' at Menkaure and Khufu are around 13,000 years apart! Whoever created this design
had to calculate where the belt stars would be 13,000 years from their own time and mark this location. Thus, the end point or minimum culmination was PROJECTED far into the future. The 2 sets of 'Queens' effectively present to us the pendulum swing of the Orion Belts stars - SW->East->SW->East->Sw.... flipping 90* each time.
You say, "...No other advanced civilisation in Robert's theory...". I know that Robert accepts the problem of the precessional knowledge and of its transmission over long periods of time. The simple fact is, however, someone at some point in the most remote past had to have known these unique properties of the Orion Belt stars to symbolically represent them for us on the ground at Giza. I know Robert is saying that the 'time-gap' is closing but this does not explain how some past civilisation was able to know such proerties and more importantly
calculate and project the positions of the star belt with the symbolic placement of the 2 sets of so-called Queens Pyramids. This speaks advanced civilistion.
