Dr. Edward Henry Dowdye,
Jr., Physicist, Engineer
Lecture/Seminar on the Great Pyramids and scientific
investigations on the Advanced Ancient African Civilization responsible for
construction of the Pyramids.
Gross omissions from the historical archives pertaining to significant
contributions of ancient African civilizations to the sciences, Mathematics,
Astronomy, Physics, etc., especially that pertaining to the Great Pyramids
of Giza, Egypt, are scientifically examined. Focus is made on solid
archeological evidence, most recent findings, astrophysical alignments,
precision stone cutting techniques of technological methods unknown to
modern technical means. Biblical references are cited. Myths, fabrications,
Hollywood depictions, stone-dragging portrayal of pyramid construction
techniques and other unsupported beliefs pertaining to The Great Pyramids
are examined for their inconsistencies using the scientific method, modern
archeological evidence and biblical references.
