In the last post of mine I showed how The Giza Plateau could easily have been laid out in the east to west direction. Here is a new image to show this.



However laying out the North to South distances have proven to be a bit of a challenge. I know that the distances to the center of The Pyramid of Khafre from the north and from the south vertically is in the square root of 3 to Phi ratio with northward as sq rt of 3 and southward as Phi. It is also quite reasonable, given Petrie's data that the sides are in a 9 by 11 ratio. However I am still working on a feasible way of how the laying out of the east - west distances can be tied into the north - south distances. Using this design plan the overall distance east to west is 1417.43 cubits or 29,227.4066 inches.

In this diagram of Petrie's measurements he has the distance as ...



22616 + (1/2 or 4154 + 9069 or 13223 or ) 6611.5 = 29227.5

Well obviously Petrie and I went to the same school of geometry and surveying for we check for 1/10 of an inch over 2435.625 feet or almost 1/2 a mile.
