[Closed] Tutankhamun's knife was 'made from meteorite iron'

It is. What happened to the other three? Looted or pinched by aliens?

Egypt? Steel?
Got to be KING TATA !!!!! 😆

Another good example is that Most people thing the pyramids have 4 sides, when they actually have 8

Well, unless you're including the mirror-image identical inverted pyramid that's underneath the one in this Google Earth view*, I can only count four sides, a very slight, possible deviation in a perfectly straight line along each side of the base does not make it eight sided.

It's very subtle, but if you look carefully on that google earth picture you can just make out slight lines down the centre of at least 2 sides where the blocks change direction.

Such fine detail make the feat of building it even more impressive IMO.

Yeah I'm not convinced you can really call the 4 sides even if you can it means nothing at all.

You're not looking at the pyramid as intended, it was covered in fine white stone that's been looted.

What about the tunnel into the chambers that was blasted where they found graffiti from the work crews denoting a specific, datable reference to a Pharaoh.

Saying it was aliens or some super civilisation is a bit demeaning to the skill, organisation and engineering of the ancient Egyptians I reckon.

Always been a fan with keen interest on many things Egyptian. I too got sucked into the whole Von Deineken theories in my 20's, but I have been to Egypt and seen many of the sights, and some off the tourist trail, watched all the programmes you could think of.

My conclusion is that the Pharaohs simply exploited a vast and subservient society for their own vanity.

No Aliens were involved in the making of the Pyramids.

It's very subtle, but if you look carefully on that google earth picture you can just make out slight lines down the centre of at least 2 sides where the blocks change direction.

So what if the blocks 'change direction', (whatever that might mean); yes, there's a sort of line down the centre of each side, [i]but the bloody thing still only has four sides![/i] Well, to be pedantic, five, because the square base is technically a 'side', but each upper, triangular side is flat, thus there are four.
Sheesh! 🙄

Damn those European body snatchers! They shall bring down the wrath of our alien overlords 🙄

Egypt Vs Stonehenge

Alien task masters Vs British workmanship

The ultimate smackdown

You can forget all the esoteric theories, the real answer is much simpler.

The Egyptians were pioneers of dry slope skiing and they got some engineers down from Ultima Thule to build those slopes. 🙂
