If you enjoyed Joseph Davidovits’ book, Why the Pharaohs Built the Pyramids with Fake Stones, then you will definitely find Margaret Morris’ book, The Great Pyramid Secret to be equally thrilling. In my opinion, it goes into more detail and depth than Davidovits’ book. Both are worth a read.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that their ideas explain the key to the success of the Egyptians in building objects from diorite, hard limestone, quartizite, etc… The simple, but elegant solution of Geopolymers.

I think Jean-Pierre Houdin’s theory about the spiral ramp would be perfect, except change his theory from carved rocks to agglomerated stones.

Who would have thought?!?! Davidovits’ argument, evidence, and overall logic for Egypt’s Old Kingdom construction of sacred tombs and statues from geopolymeric stone (similar to concrete) convinces me that we have answered the question, “How were the pyramids built?” Warning! I am no Egyptologist, however, the evidence exists and the pieces of the puzzle fit nicely into place. Both in terms of the physical construction and the religious aspects of Khnum vs. Amun. The Old Kingdom Egyptians were master alchemists and could create high quality artificial stones thanks to their excellent skills and suitable geology/environment. Davidovits provides more details, examples, and experiments in his second book, Why the Pharaohs Built the Pyramids with Fake Stones.

There are several videos and more information at the Geopolymer Institute.

There are some interesting theories about Egyptians and Cymatics. Check this link for more information. Perhaps the Egyptians knew about the formation of such patterns (as can be seen in this video) and thought them “holy.”
More information and links here.
