Plotting and Building the Pyramids of Giza Daniel Gerardo

The surveyors of ancient Egypt worked out the plotting of the Great Pyramid with such precision and accuracy that it was only possible to reproduce them with the use of modern surveying instruments. In addition, the largest pyramids are the most accurate. These amazing and seemingly illogical facts are a sign that the pyramids were not plotted by measuring, and they give us certain insights into how they did it. The aim of this book is to present my conclusions after a decade's worth of research on the subject. Understanding how the pyramids were plotted will enable us to visualize without much difficulty how they were built, with the simplicity and efficiency that characterized the ancient Egyptians.
