This is the most logical and simplest explanation for Egyptian Pyramid construction that I have ever read. It also amazingly answers the question of how Coral Castle was built by one man in Florida.

They say that any technology, sufficiently advanced, seems like magic.

I say now that any technology, insufficiently recognized, also seems like magic.

On Proving Ancient Megalith Construction

Coral Castle is an unsolved megalith whose secrets of construction can be uncovered and proved using only information found on the Internet. This article presents the proof and links the methods used to construct it to a scientist's proof of Egyptian pyramid construction that was rejected several decades ago.

1 Introduction
This step-by-step proof was written for everyone. Prior experience with science is unnecessary as everything is explained in detail.

Several Hyperlinks to other websites are provided as a means to confirm sources of information but need not be visited while reading unless that is your preference.

This section begins with explanations of a scientific principle known as the principle of parsimony and of the standard used to measure the quality of proof. These two important tools are referenced throughout. Next, two obstacles are identified that prevent Egyptian pyramid construction from being proved. Section 2 is the main body that focuses on removing the second obstacle. Section 3 discusses the heaviest stones ever lifted by ancient man. Section 4 briefly describes a scientist's proof of Egyptian pyramid construction, focuses on removing the first obstacle, and summarizes. A Frequently Asked Questions section follows the proof.

The terms hypothesis and theory are treated as synonyms, and the term pyramids refers to the Egyptian pyramids.



1-1 The principle of parsimony
“Pluralitas non est ponenda sine necessitate.” ---William of Ockham

The principle of parsimony, also known as Ockham's Razor, translates from the Latin as pluralities should not be multiplied without necessity. It means that truth is most often simple and lies are most often complex.

Parsimony states that when two or more theories are presented that propose to solve the same problem, the simplest that gives the most complete and satisfying explanation has priority to be studied in detail as it is the most probable. If during study the simplest is found to be flawed, then it is excluded, multiplying pluralities becomes necessary, the next simplest gains priority, and so on.

For example, imagine that a family lives on the equator, and a store they custom is located 30 miles west of their home. There are many ways they could travel to it, but parsimony states that it is more probable that they use a route that incorporates some means of traveling 30 miles west to enter the front door than that they travel 25,000 miles east and circumnavigate the globe to enter the back door. Either method will work, but parsimony gives the 30-mile theory priority to be studied.

When problems remain unsolved after sufficient time has passed in which they reasonably could be expected to have been solved, this is the prime clue to beware of deception. Deception comprises missing and/or misleading information. It relies upon limitations of human perception, causes problems to be solved incorrectly or not at all, and it plays no favorites; all can be deceived. To overcome deception, the missing and/or misleading information must be discovered.

A technique that often is useful for overcoming deception is to behave as a rat does when it encounters a dead end in a maze. It turns around and moves in the opposite direction rather than persisting in the forward direction, remaining stuck, and starving to death. Thinking and visualizing in terms of characteristics o

That's intriguing. I think I'll read it when I'm not drunk.

Translation: I'll likely never read it.

j/k

If I didn't have a plane to catch, I'd read it now my own self. Maybe I'll remember about this some time next week.

Or not.
