Secrets of the Great Pyramid by Peter Tompkins. Occult. Mysticism.

Description: Secrets of the Great Pyramid by Peter Tompkins. Does the Great Pyramid of Cheops enshrine the secrets of a lost science? This richly illustrated book investigates the millennial mystery evoked by the last survivor of the Seven Wonders of the World. Peter Tompkins recounts the explorations and adventures of the archaeologists, treasure-hunters, soldiers, scientists and eccentrics who have tunnelled into and studied the Pyramid over many centuries. He analyses the various theories as to how and why the Pyramid was built, and its relation to other monumental structures of antiquity, including Stonehenge and the ziggurats of Babylon. He presents the fascinating theory that the Great Pyramid was constructed as a highly sophisticated scientific instrument - to serve as an almanac, a surveyor's theodolite, a compass, a geodetic marker, a celestial observatory, a scale model of the northern hemisphere by an Egyptian culture far more advanced than is generally thought to have existed. There are 350 illustrations from sources ranging from the twenty-volume survey of Egypt commissioned by Napoleon to the first photographs taken inside the Pyramid in 1865; and an appendix by Professor Stecchini on the relations of ancient measures to the Great Pyramid.
