Trust me when I say I have seen many number crunching episodes with all kind of numbers from the Giza 3. This is the only ratio that works with your formula. This formula isn't exact but close.

And? If any two pyramids use the same seked then they will all do this. Seked 5 will give you two pyramids with an appropriate ratio.

Unless you can prove intentional purpose, yes. Read Jon's newest post. There might be meaningful numbers that they wanted to use but I don't see the square root of the perimeter X 176 as a special number. It was chosen but the above reason(i.e. sqrt of a perimeter) hasn't been proven.

So the cubit remained fairly constant. And? Many buildings today have a constant foot(my area of living) measurement.
You probably just made Don's whole week with that RC value.

There is loads of that stuff just waiting for hard evidence to prove/disprove the idea/theory.What about all the pyramids that didn't use that "seked"?

Which I haven't seen sekeds done in any examples from that time period. Like i said it is an easy way to convert but I don't see this formula being used by construction crews.

S*S*6 =
Now show me your interpretation of how the AE could have accomplished this.

Eliminate, circumvent either way it's not in the formula right?
