Is it any coincidence that the geographical center of the earth is located where the Sahara Desert meets the Valley of the Nile on a district called Giza in Egypt? At this exact location is the largest, oldest, and last remaining wonder of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, "the pyramids of Giza."
The Great Pyramid of Cheops is the largest stone building ever constructed. Some scientists conclude that the Great Pyramid was built as many as 10,500 years before Christ!!
Edgar Cayce connected the pyramid with the fabled lost continent of Atlantis. In a trance state he described a civilization that knew Atlantis was doomed, and that an age of great intellectual darkness would follow. In this new era, the very existence of that vanished world would be forgotten until its remains would again be perceived for what they are. It is therefore possible that the main purpose of the Pyramid was to record the knowledge and abilities of that ancient world in such a way that the record would last 12,500 years - until the present day.
The pyramid may reveal to us as much of the future as of the past, and only time will tell if all the earth may not be touched by the implications.
The perimeter of the Pyramid is 3023.13 feet, and the average side is 755.78 feet. The original height was 480.95 feet.
The Great Pyramid at Giza comprises some 2,300,000 stone blocks, averaging 2.5 tons each and some up to 15 tons in weight. 2000 years after the Great Pyramid was allegedly built, Greek historian Herodotus recorded inscriptions on its side "telling how much was spent on radishes, onions, and garlic for the workmen" - probably actually a list of food offerings.
People continue to be drawn to the Pyramids, and many, including ourselves, come away with amazing stories of their experiences while inside.
