Hi Jon,

can you give the dimensions of the postulated-intended chamber?

Also:

"and my admiration for those who cut it even in it's unfinished form is unbounded."

I'm on an archaeological dig here in Scotland at the moment. The digging and shovelling is tough enough in the mild summer climate here, and we have managed to shift about 5 M^3 of soil/rock in a week by hand in our trench.

With the temperature in Egypt during the summer it must have been impossible to work.

Something like this chamber must have been a winter project.

We also managed to shift a 1 ton mini-megalith about 10m but that's another story.

Your drawings as usual are great. I was telling the people on site about your work, and also told one of the other archaeologists on the site to check out your Egyptarchives - she was impressed.
