Graham Hancock – FINGERPRINTS OF THE GODS Map showing the geometric conception of Egypt, with the Great Pyramid at the apex of the Nile delta. The Egyptians traditionally thought of south as ‘up’. Geodetic marker Whatever else it may be, it has long been understood by mathematicians and geographers that the Great Pyramid serves the function of a geodetic marker (geodetics being the branch of science concerned with 414
Graham Hancock – FINGERPRINTS OF THE GODS determining the exact position of geographical points and the shape and size of the earth 1 ). This realization first dawned in the late eighteenth century when the armies of revolutionary France, led by Napoleon Bonaparte, invaded Egypt. Bonaparte, who had cultivated a deep interest in the enigmas of the pyramids, brought with him a large number of scholars, 175 in all, including several ‘greybeards’ gathered from various universities who were reputed to have acquired ‘a profound knowledge of Egyptian antiquities’, and, more usefully, a group of mathematicians, cartographers and surveyors. 2 One of the tasks the savants were set, after the conquest was completed, was to draw up detailed maps of Egypt. In the process of doing this they discovered that the Great Pyramid was perfectly aligned to true north—and of course to the south, east and west as well, as we saw in Part VI. This meant that the mysterious structure made an excellent reference and triangulation point, and a decision was therefore taken to use the meridian passing through its apex as the base-line for all other measurements and orientations. The team then proceeded to produce the first accurate maps of Egypt drawn up in the modern age. When they had finished, they were intrigued to note that the Great Pyramid’s meridian sliced the Nile Delta region into two equal halves. They also found that if the diagonals running from the pyramid’s apex to its north-eastern and north-western corners were extended (forming lines on the map running north-east and northwest until they reached the Mediterranean), the triangle thus formed would neatly encapsulate the entire Delta area. 3 Let us now return to our map, which also incorporates a triangle representing the Delta. Its other main components are the three parallel meridians. The eastern meridian is at longitude 32° 38’ east—the official eastern border of Ancient Egypt from the beginning of dynastic times. The western meridian is at longitude 29° 50’ east, the official western border of ancient Egypt. The central meridian is at longitude 31° 14’ east, exactly midway between the other two (1° 24’ away from each). 4 What we now have is a representation of a strip on the surface of planet earth that is exactly 2° 48’ wide. How long is this strip? Ancient Egypt’s ‘official’ northern and southern borders (which bore no more relationship to settlement patterns than the official eastern and western boundaries) are marked by the horizontal lines at the top and bottom of the map and are located respectively at 31° 06’ north and 24° 06’ north. 5 The northern border, 31° 06’ north, joins the two outer ends of the estuary of the Nile. The southern border, 24° 06’ N, marks the precise latitude of the island 1 Collins English Dictionary, p. 608. 2 Secrets of the Great Pyramid, p. 38.
