There appears to be a correlation between various external dimensions of the Great Pyramid or Khufu’s pyramid and the Babylonian System A and System B parameters for Saturn.

Starting with the System B parameters for the Zig Zag Tau function. In Uruk text

“For Saturn: the height is 14;4,42,30, the depth 11;14,2,30, the difference 0;12”
Babylonian Mathematical Astronomy: Procedure Texts By Mathieu Ossendrijver pp 309-310

These are sexagesimal numbers - the part before the semicolon is a whole number and after the semicolon is fractional. For now let’s ignore the fractional elements of the height and the depth.

We have height of 14 against the great pyramids height of 280 (14 x 20) RC and depth of 220(11 x 20) for half the basement which is used in the trigonometric calculations. The difference 0;12 in the text means 0 + 12/60 = 0.2 or expressed in a percentage 20%.

As such all three key numbers for the exterior design of the pyramid are present in Uruk System B Tau zig zag function parameters.

The same Uruk text offers the following System A parameters for Saturn:

“Concerning Saturn. 4,25 (265) years corresponds to 4,16 (256) first appearances and to 9 rotationsFootnote 13 and to 54,0 (3240) degrees."
Teije de Jong, A study of Babylonian planetary theory I. The outer planets

if you were to slice the Pyramid at 265 Royal Cubits high, the remaining 15 Cubit High Pyramid would have a baselength of 23.57 Royal Cubits which when multiplied by a mathematical constant of the Golden Angle (137.5 degrees) yields 3240.8 degrees.

The Uruk text says there are 256 first appearances in 265 years. The first appearances relate to Saturn’s synodic period. So 265 x 365 / 256 =~377.8 days.

As it turns out, 16 times the 23.57 Royal Cubit baselength of the 15 Royal Cubit height pyramid that remains when you slice the great pyramid at 265 Royal Cubits yields 377.14 Royal Cubits. 16 is the square root of 256 the number of first appearances in the Uruk text.

The problem as I see it is that for any single number, with the exception of zero, you can find two multiples that get you to the answers you want. In this case, the 23.57 RC baselength of the 15 RC high pyramid is multiplied by 137.5 to get to 3240 degrees and by 16 to get to 377.14 days synodic period. I have to ask whether this was intentional or random chance:

- The 137.5 would appear on the surface to be random chance. Except theres another pyramid in close proximity that expresses the number 137 in its dimensions - Khafre’s pyramid is 411 (137 x 3) Royal Cubits in baselength, and 274 (2 x 137) Royal Cubits high.

- The 16 multiplier would also be random chance. Except in the Babylonian System A texts, there are 256 first appearances in 265 years and 16 is the square root of 256.

- The System B numbers are all present

As such, I’m asking the question of whether the Great Pyramid is linked to Saturn.
