"The Ancient Egyptians were not quite as archaic as you paint them, they had a system of geometry that was as good or better than the system developed by the Greeks."

I didn't say that they were archaic ..I said " symettry, proportion, balance..all of these can be appreciated and achieved without recourse to modern (or Greek)geometry. "

Now..I believe it is your opinion that the pyramids are MORE than symmetrical, proportionate and balanced..obviously if you are correct then they would have had to resort to more Sophisticated Geometry than that required for symmettry Proportion and balance

as we haven't yet arrive at the point in our discussion where you share your findings

I don't see why I should be required to support or debunk what you have yet to share.

the important point right now is that I discover if you agree that...

"symettry, proportion, balance.. can be appreciated and achieved without recourse to modern (or Greek)geometry. "

.....or not.

I'm trying to find out where we agree before I find out where we do not.
