egyptology & the Giza pyramids
In view of the tremendous popular interest in the Giza pyramids which has been stimulated by Robert Bauval's Orion Correlation Theory, it seems desirable to consider whether Bauval's conjecture is compatible with my own discovery of the coherent dimensional plan which connects the three major Giza pyramids, or whether there is any inherent conflict between these two quite different concepts of an integrated Giza site plan.
the Orion mistery
In the course of my friendly discussions with Robert Bauval which took place while his book The Orion Mystery was being written, it became evident that he thought that the concept of a correlation with the Belt Stars of Orion explained the religious motivation for the disposition of the three pyramids on the Giza plateau in general terms, while my own findings showed in detail how the plan was actually executed on the ground; and Robert was therefore kind enough to include references to my findings in The Orion Mystery, as well as in his later co-authored books. In brief, it was possible that the pyramid-builders had developed a mathematical construction for the placing of the three pyramids, which was compatible with the pattern of the Belt stars and specified the exact dimensions which had to be laid out.
