I know they aren't power transmitters or whatever the tinfoil hat people suggest, but the idea of those huge pyramids being primarily tombs just seems off. I mean yes, they are, but I don't like that being their primary purposes. Seems like a waste.
@2a70c54d omg omg omg … I just realized being a pharaoh in power is like being at the top of a (giggle snicker giggle) pyramid scheme. The pharaoh and establishment convince an army that the pharaoh is in power and that they will see profits for more people they defeat (in war or otherwise), soldiers scare town elders into compliance with bullying…. And all the money flows to the top of the pyramid
@2a70c54d The whole idea was the glorification of the pharaoh as godhead; the things were covered in limestone originally, iirc, so the sun would glint off them during the day to keep you from being able to directly look at them.
@2a70c54d They were probably there for astrodynamics and/or thermal venting of the earth to assist in travel between star systems.
I never heard proper detailed explanation how the pyramids could affect you. But I am wondering it too. For example that in ukraine there is an pyramid covered with nature looking like a hill with 4 sides bigger than the natural hills surreonding it.
