The Great Pyramid of Giza, a monument of wisdom and prophecy, was
built as a tomb for Pharaoh Cheops in 2720 B.C. Despite its antiquity,
certain aspects of its construction make it one of the truly great
wonders of the world. The four sides of the pyramid are aligned almost
5 exactly on true north, south, east, and west - an incredible engineering
fiat. The ancient Egyptians were sun worshipers and great astronomers,
so computations for the Great Pyramid were based on astronomical
observations.
10 Explorations and detailed examinations of the base of the structure
reveal many intersecting lines. Further scientific study indicates
that these represent a type of time line of events - past, present,

coincide with known facts of the past. Others are prophesied for
15 future generations and are presently under investigation.
