Amazingly at Sakkara we get this:

From an earlier post:

The entire complex was once surrounded by an enclosure wall, that when complete, was about 600 yards (549m) long and 300 yards (274m) wide and rose to over 30 feet (9.1m). The wall is made of brick-size stones and is very impressive in its own right. Just the size alone would have made the wall an incredible project, but that is not the only thing impressive about this enclosure wall. The wall has projections and recesses that would have more than doubled the amount of stone and work required. The craftsmanship is very meticulous. The purpose of the wall is thought to have been one of symbolic nature, not of military protection, for the funerary complex inside. [interoz.com]

and this one

The pyramid was situated in the center of a large enclosure (about 1800 by 900 feet), entirely surrounded by a paneled and bastioned wall of white limestone. The enclosure wall still survives in some places on the south side (though much shorter) and has been rebuilt on the east side to its original height of more than 30 feet. [www.bluffton.edu]

Note 1800 feet is 1047.63 cubits and 900 feet is 523.815 cubits

Interesting to note Hermione is the fact that 523.815 is the number of millimeters in a cubit.

Just interesting I thought.

Deliberate ? What do you think ?

20.618034 = 523.7 millimeters

20.62 = 523.748 This would make the length 1047.5266 and the width 523.7633 and tie in all three measuring systems: feet, cubits and metric.

A pretty neat trick, don't you think ?


What I also suddenly noticed is that 180[0] is 1/2 a circle and 90[0] is 1/4 of a circle so perhaps this is what was meant here is that it was representing a circle. It would certainly make sense when the data so nicely corresponds to Pi in the final analysis.

Following on this theme we get as our radius, assuming 360 as a circumference in both degrees and distance, a distance of 114.59155902616464175359630962821 and divide by 2 gives us: 57.295779513082320876798154814105

Get out any calculator, the one with Windows will be fine and find the tan of 89.9999999
