Another ‘New’ Pyramid Theory
Two years ago, I got an email: ten years of 3D models, diagrams, and calculations—and one line that rewired everything: “the pyramids weren’t built… they were unbuilt.”
This video tests that “cannibal construction” idea against the big contenders: external ramp theory, spiral ramp sightlines, and Jean-Pierre Houdin’s internal ramp with the Grand Gallery counterweight.
We explain muon tomography (a CT-scan of density) and the void above the Grand Gallery, then confront the Apex Problem—how 51.84° geometry, edge visibility, and workable 7–8% inclines make finishing the top so hard.
Finally, we zoom out to the Giza Plateau as a closed-loop system: overbuild → carve down → reclaim stone, plus masonry clues like bonding/keying stones—and why “missing evidence” might be design, not decay. Here’s more from Dami Lee, an architect, living in Vancouver, who makes videos focusing on architecture and creativity.
