No, I understood perfectly.

What you failed to understand was my answer.

Yes, if there were a good contextual foundation for doing so. You've not demonstrated that the ancient Egyptians could measure anything more than a thousand cubits to any kind of accuracy, so I see no point in measuring it that way now.

It can be narrowed down to within three hundred feet, maybe.

Three feet?

Have at it.

Get out your tape measure and buy a ticket to Egypt! It's important to you, for some reason, but that doesn't mean it's important to anyone else (and it certainly doesn't mean it was important to Old Kingdom Egyptians!)

Time to do your own work, I guess!
