  • The Golden Geometry of the Interior Design of the Great Pyramid

    A golden-ratio-based geometric model unveils the Great Pyramid’s sophisticated design and accounts with astonishing accuracy for all details of its internal and external architecture. The model values match the measurements of W.F. Petrie or G. Dormion within 1 cm or 5', respectively for the lengths and angles, and in multiple cases exactly (within 1 mm or 1'). The model yields mathematical ... Read more
