The great belief in the afterlife was the basis for the creation of the pyramids during their lifetime by the Egyptian pharaohs. Being "gods" during their lifetime, the ancient Egyptian pharaohs hoped to remain them in the "kingdom of the dead." And for this they had to "please" the god Osiris, who has power over the dead. Therefore, the mummies of the pharaohs were surrounded by gold and jewelry, and access to the treasures was closed by the grandiose structures of the correct geometric shape - pyramids - built above them.
More than 130 pyramids have survived in Egypt today. From the smallest to the most famous - the Cheops pyramid at Giza. Giza is a suburb of Cairo, which can be reached by regular bus from the center of the capital of Egypt. For more than 4 thousand years, this man-made structure was the tallest in the world, reaching 147 meters during construction.
Time is relentless. Forces of nature, vandals are to blame, but now in the world of the seven wonders of the world only one remains - the pyramid of Cheops in Egypt. You can start your acquaintance with this miracle from the hotel window, located not far from the pyramids. Particularly mesmerizing is the view from the window across the wall, when the times of day change each other. Someone will like the pyramids in the early morning, with the rising rays of the sun, someone will forever be remembered at sunset, and someone will witness nighttime declarations of love!
To finally get acquainted with the pyramids, you need to go to meet them on foot early in the morning. They are so large that they are visible from almost every place in Giza. The closer to them, the more majestic and mysterious they are. How many more secrets do they keep?
Internal structure of the pyramids
Under the multi-ton vaults of each pyramid there are from one to three rooms connected by long narrow corridors. Moreover, the premises were located not only in the body of the pyramid, but also underground. In one of the rooms there was a sarcophagus with the pharaoh's mummy, the next room was, as a rule, for his wife.
To protect access from unwanted guests - treasure robbers, several degrees of protection were provided. First, the entrance to the pyramid was closed with multi-ton stone slabs installed in grooves so that hundreds of people could not lift them without special devices. Secondly, the final access to the sarcophagus passed through a special "storage room" with alternating slabs installed in the likeness of the entrance.

Pyramid building
The total mass of the Cheops pyramid is more than 5 million tons. It is almost impossible to imagine how such a structure can be built without the use of technical means. Moreover, this construction was carried out even before the invention of the wheel.
Previously, it was believed that slave labor was used in the construction of this pyramid. However, the latest discoveries of archaeologists and Egyptologists show that this structure was erected by free, the most skillful and literate citizens. As a technical innovation, a system of ramps was used, both internal and external. At present, models of pyramid construction processes have been created, calculations have been made of the number of construction participants and the materials used. But in this area there are still many secrets.
New hypothesis of the purpose of the pyramids
When examining the pyramids, the following questions remained unanswered:
- Why is the number of rooms in the pyramids different?
- Why do the faces of the pyramids have different angles of inclination?
- Why are pyramids of different heights?
To get answers to them, and take a different look at the purpose of the pyramids, you need to get to the town of Dakhshur, located about 30 km south of Cairo. You can get to it by minibus.
In Dakhshur there are pyramids built during the reign of Cheops' father, Pharaoh Sneferu. The highest (101 m) is the Polyline, which received this name due to the changing slope of the side faces of the pyramid. The second is Pink, the color of the limestone outside the pyramid.
Interestingly, both pyramids have one interior room. In Lomanoy's room there was a sarcophagus with the mummy of Pharaoh Sneferu, and in Pink there was an empty room, 30 m below ground level.
For the ancient Egyptians, the main event after death was a meeting with the god Osiris, who judges the dead, weighing their hearts to determine their future fate in the afterlife. Since Osiris is the god of the dead and lives under the Earth, that is why the "court" room in the Pink Pyramid is so deep. And in order to deceive Osiris a little, the deceased pharaoh must get into the meeting room with him from heaven, as if from other gods. Therefore, the Broken pyramid, consisting of two "steps", is a kind of transmitter, teleporting the pharaoh or his soul to heaven. And Pink is a receiver with a courtroom!
What happened, according to the ancient pharaohs, after their death? Their bodies were washed, cleansed, mummified - prepared to meet the gods. Then they were placed in the upper room - the prototype of the spacecraft. The top of the pyramid is very accurately oriented to a certain star, at its own time for each deceased a portal to Heaven was opened, a rocket with a pharaoh or his soul, launched to the gods. In Heaven, the Pharaoh, having a sufficient amount of wealth, received from the gods from Heaven "letters of recommendation" for the god Osiris. The movement from Heaven to Earth was carried out according to the same principle, but only to another pyramid - the receiver. In this pyramid, deep under the Earth, in a special courtroom, the pharaoh met with Osiris and made a decision on his future fate from him. But, having recommendations from the highest gods, even in the case of an unrighteous life, he received the necessaryyou must understand the royal office. Thus, the pyramid is a portal for connecting the Earth and Heaven!
Cheops is an innovator
Having inherited from his father knowledge in the field of the purpose and construction of pyramids, knowing how expensive it is, Pharaoh Cheops combined a transmitter and a receiver for teleportation in one pyramid, saving money on construction. Therefore, the lower room in the Cheops pyramid, located below the level of the Earth, is nothing more than a judicial room for the meeting with the God Osiris. According to one of the existing hypotheses, this room is just a construction mistake.
It remains to answer the question about the decreasing size of the pyramids. In the 60s and 70s of the last century, computers occupied several rooms, and the most powerful ones even occupied several floors. Then there was a decrease in the element base, construction principles. And the mainframe first turned into a personal computer, then into a laptop, a tablet. Nowadays, an ordinary smartphone performs the same functions as a computer before.
So the ancient Egyptian pharaohs, improving their knowledge and preserving the basic principles of teleportation, were able to first combine the properties of the receiver and transmitter in one pyramid, and then significantly reduce the size of the pyramids themselves.
Thus, from the analysis of the latest research by Egyptologists, a hypothesis follows about the purpose of the pyramids as portals for movement in space. What a miracle these grandiose man-made structures are, and everyone can touch these wonders!
