"It is known that the Sumerians used a base 60 counting system about the same time that the pyramids were built (Ifrah 2000), though solid evidence is lacking that ancient Egyptians adopted a base 60 system for either timekeeping or a circle divided into 6 times 60-degrees. Regardless, clear evidence and intention needs to be shown that the factors 12, 72, 600, and 3,600 purposely connect 43,200 to 25,920 beyond simply explaining that the selected factors are sometimes useful in other applications. For instance, Hancock points out that 25,920 divided by 72 is 360 but even if it is certain that the ancient Egyptians divided a circle into 360 degrees, the question remains why the number 25,920 uniquely indicates the number 43,200 simply because 43,200 also shares factors of 72 and 360. To date, the only thing available that relates precession (25,920) to Hancock’s scalar (43,200) are a handful of common factors which would be common for highly composite numbers and highly factorable numbers. "

I haven't read all the article but the author seems obsessed with 25920 and what it could or could not mean

If 25920 is called inches and we call it a circle the the diameter is equal to (25920 / 22) x 7 and we get ... 8247.273 and that would give us a radius of 4123.64 inches. . Now only because I have worn out about 25 calculators over the years and the fact that I have studied The Bent and the Red Pyramids in depth that I immediately saw the significance of this number for 4123.64 inches divided by 20.62 inches (The Petrie Cubit) gives us 199.98 and equal to the height of both of the for-mentioned pyramids . We should buy him a calculator ... The base of The Red Pyramid is called 420 cubits but I see it differently . I see it as the square root of 3 divided by 2 then times 10,000 to get 8660.254 and I will call them inches and divided by 20.62 we get 419.993 cubits. We also then get 1/2 of 8660.254 / 4123.64 and the resulting tan of 1.050074 and gives us angles of 46.399 (46.4) and 43.6. It also turns out that 1/2 the base of The Red Pyramid at 4330.127 inches is 10 times longer than the distance from the east side of G2 to the center of G1 in the ratio or 10 inches = 1 cubit and of course both are the sq rt of 3 / 4 x 1000 . ( and 10,000)

People who know nothing of the math of The Pyramids should never write articles about it in my opinion.
