CURIOUS FACTS CONCERN
ING THE GREAT GHIZEH
-.. PYRAMID.
rs 1850

The recently discovered corner
stone of the great Ghizeh pyramid,
the first and largest of the Egypt an
pyramids, was found by the discov-
erer, an English clergyman, to have
the same remarkable relations to ge-.
ometry that had I been ascertained.
by the Astronomer Royal of Scot
land and other mathematicians,
to exist in the pyramid as a whole
and in various of its parts. The
cornerstone, which had escaped,
by being covered, the general strip
ping of the stone facing of the pyra-
mid. was found in stu, 10 measure
multiples of the pyramidal cubit "a
little more than twenty-five inches)
on all its lines, and the angle of its
outer slope to express, with mathe-
matical accuracy, the ratio of the
diameter to the perimeter of a circle.
The pyramidal cubit is exactly O..
600, O0O,01 of the shortest radius
of the earth, and the height Of the
restored pyramid, 222 cubits. the
100000 000,1 of the distance of
the sun from the earth, according to
the lately corrected value of this dis
lance. Similarly the so.called sar-
eophagus inside the pyramid has
been found to be an accurate meas
ure of contents, based on the pyra
midal cubit. A relation to the mean
density of the earth is also found to
exist, and it is curious fact that
the unit of measure adopted by the
builders of the pyramid, supposed to
be at least 5000 years old, and to
have been erected by race anterior
to the historical Egyptians, possess.
es a geome:rical accuracy which
does not exist in the French one,
which, as is known, is not, what its
designers intended it to be, in exact
decimal relation with the meridian,
owing to errors in the arc. Who.
ever the builders of the Ghizeh pyr
amid, astronomy must have beer
far advanced among them to enable
them to calcula tie the distance of the
sun at the amanded figure to which
[ it has been reduced only within the
last three or four years.
