This investigation of the purpose of the Great Pyramid at Giza and similar monuments of the Ancient Egyptian Fourth Dynasty takes a new look at previously overlooked aspects of the civilization that built them, and comes to conclusions about the symbolism of the pyramids and the meaning of dramatic discoveries made recently at Giza.
