For the best part of recorded history, it was the tallest structure human beings had ever built. 2.3 million blocks of limestone, some weighing three tons, stacked with a margin of error so small it wasn't even detectable until the 19th century. Nobody has ever fully explained how it was done - or why anyone would bother getting a tomb that precise.
This week we dig into Graham Hancock's Fingerprints of the Gods and the case for a lost civilization behind the Great Pyramid of Giza. No wheels, no scaffold, and an eastern face aligned to true north within 0.015 percent — tight enough that mainstream Egyptologists still don't fully agree on how it was done, let alone why it needed to be that precise.
Some of this is measurable, sitting in the dimensions of the pyramid itself. Some of it, whether remnant knowledge from a lost civilization explains it, or it's just very good pattern-matching on ancient numbers, may never be settled.
This week, Rich Baker and Dr. Nick Coatsworth work through what the construction math actually supports, why Hancock's flood-myth argument is harder to dismiss than it sounds, and land on opposite sides of a 7-out-of-10.
