I have a theory: There never was a capstone on the Great Pyramid. It was
never finished because it is the Tower of Babel. Zech 5-translate it from

>At the end Of 1995, as reported in Chapter 6 and Chapter 7, the position of

>the
>southern shaft of the Queen's Chamber was apparently one of official

>Gantenbrink would not be involved and 'another robot' -- not Upuaut--would

>In 1993-4 (see Chapter 2 and Chapter 5) Dr Zahi Hawass appeared to be
>adamantly opposed to the notion that the Sphinx might be far older than

>University,
>and the seismologist Thomas Dobecki (who was to identify a large
>rectangular
>chamber concealed in the bedrock at a depth of about twenty feet beneath
>the
>front paws of the Sphinx).
>
>The NBC documentary linked the Sphinx to Atlantis and suggested that the
>chamber of Thomas Dobecki's seismograph had detected beneath its paws might
>have some sort of time capsule of Atlantean wisdom and history. Hawass
>called these claims: 'American hallucinations. West is an amateur. There is
>absolutely no scientific base for any of this. We have older monuments in
>the same area. They definitely weren't built by men from Atlantis. It's
>nonsense and we won't allow our monuments to be exploited for personal
>enrichment. The Sphinx is the soul of Egypt.'5
>
>An article in the Egyptian press responding to the NBC film quoted Dr

>on his further reasons for expelling John West and his team from the Sphinx
>enclosure: 'I have found that their work is carried out by installing

>In 1983 Hugh Lynn Cayce died and the management of the Edgar Cayce group

>completed his education in the United States and returned to Egypt to be

>In March 1996 Dr Hawass announced that the Egyptian scientist Farouk El Baz
>(whose name...translates into ancient Egyptian as Horus) had been chosen to
>lead a team to open the secret door inside the Great Pyramid at the end of
>the southern shaft of the Queen�s Chamber. The reader will recall that
>Amtex, the Canadian company participating in the project, claim to be
>�working with Spar Aerospace� to devise a tool to open or �go straight
>through� the door. Spar Aerospace are better known for manufacturing
>hydraulic arms used in NASA Space Shuttles. As we noted at the beginning of
>this appendix, Dr El Baz, a graduate of Cairo�s Ain Shams University, is a
>NASA consultant. He has been involved for many years with studies of
>geological formations on the Moon and on Mars and he is a one-time personal
>friend of astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong. It was El Baz,
>nicknamed King by his NASA colleagues, who in 1969 chose the spot for the
>Apollo 11 Moon landing. El Baz is the founder of Centre of Remote Sensing
>at
>Boston University and presently serves as its Director. 24

>Also in March 1996 the EAO [Egyptian Antiquities Organization] granted a
>one-year renewable license for the project at the Sphinx -- see above --
>financed by Joseph Schor. Project members include Boris Said, Thomas
>Dobecki, and four senior geologists from Florida State University, who
>began
>to work with a million dollars worth of ground-penetrating radar and
>seismic
>equipment at their disposal. It was reported to us that team members had
