SCIENTIFIC INTELLIGENCE.
Curious Facts Concerning the Great
Chfxeh Pyramid.

The recently discovered corner stone OF the
great Ghizeh pyramid. the first and largest OF the
Egyptian pyramids was found by the discoverer,
an English clergyman, to have the same remark
able relations to geometry that had been ascer.
tanned, by the Astronomer Royal Of Scotland and
other mathematician, to exist in the pyramid as
a whole and in various Of its parts The csrnef
stone, which had escaped by being covered, the
general stripping OF the stone facing OF tho
pyramid was found IN stu, to measure multiples
five inches on all Its lines, and the angle
curacy, the ratio Of the diameter to the permeter
OF circle. The pyramdal cubit Is exactly
O00O 0OO01 OF tile shortest radius OF the eartn and
the height OF the restored pyramid, 222 cubts, the
OO00 900 0001 of the distance OF the sun from the
EARTH according to the lately corrected value Of this
distance. Similarly the socaled sarcophagus inside
the pyramid has been found to be accurate
measure OF contents, based on the pyramidal cubit
relation to the mean density OF the earth Is also
found to exist and IL is curious fact that the unit
OF measure adopted by the builders OF the pyramid,
supposed TO be al least 5000 years old and to have
been erected ny race anterior to the
historical Egyptians possesses a geometrtca
accuracy which does not exist In the French one,
which, as IL known, is not what its designers IN
tended 1t to oe, In exact decimal relation with the
meridian, owing TO errors in the arc. whoever the
builders OF the Ghizeh pyramid astonemy must
have been far advanced among them 10 enant6
them to calculate the distance OF the sun ~ tno
amended figure ~ which 1t has been rcduceo ony
within the last three or four years.
