So, nothing you are willing to share, just gut feelings?
I've posted pages of evidence about who built the pyramids and why. We are now on page 183. Do you really want me to do it all over again? Why should I?

How about carbon dating which proves the pyramids were built when archaeological research says the were? I suppose you'll have an issue with that as well.



 
no point discussing this with you further as you clearly have not got the slightest knowledge
It's quite simple. You posited an idea that the Egyptians suddenly developed the ability to build structures that lasted centuries.
Amazing how throughout history building techniques have got better and better and more sophisticated as time moved on .
But in the case of the pyramids they hit the ground
running went from building the greatest structures on earth out of stone and managed to incorporate rooms in them supporting millions of tons above them capable of surviving earth quakes etc .
And then progressed to making them out of mud bricks that then collapsed strange they went backwards or where they just trying to unsuccessfully copy something that was already there
I said there were logical explanations.
so go on what are the logical explanations
You asked what they were.
The buildings that didn't last, that predate the pyramids, are lost in the desert.
I have pointed out that in developing the ability to build pyramids, they probably spent many, many years perfecting their technique.
But as their techniques wasn't yet perfect, their previous attempts have been lost in the successive centuries, and are now lost in the sands of the desert.

In considering why they stopped building them, as well as Denso's presented arguments, there might be the simple reason that the number of people available and prepared to undertake such massive projects couldn't be bothered anymore.
Or they developed greater understanding of man's fallibility. They realised that there isn't an afterlife after all.

Fraid so....

They radio carbon dated seeds, fine, that is the age of the seeds, but it only dates when the seeds were last alive, and put there. The actual building, the pyramids, must have been there when the seeds were put there, and therefore older than the seeds, but how much before, how much older.

If the pyramids were built on top of the seeds, then that would be an entirely different matter.

A reasonable theory, if you only knew a tiny amount about the subject.

Previous radiocarbon dating often used the mortar used to construct the pyramids. However that is less accurate as the age of the carbon is fixed at the time the tree grew, not when it was used in construction. Those dates had significant error margins and more range than scientists and historians liked (100 year range).

The seeds don't have that problem, they would have been placed there 'fresh' and they grew in a single year. That means you can have a lot more confidence in the date it gives you being the date the pyramid was actually filled.

The mortar radiocarbon dating gave a range that matched the seeds.

I am pretty sure you know what your talking about
Now explain where the results of these many many years of perfecting the techniques are .
Lost in the sand are you struggling where evidence of ancient structures are actually found and what evidence of those have been found .
As for people not being avialable to build them was this a global thing then with all the other pyramids
 
I don't believe you.
dont believe me all you want show me all those treasures from the pyramid burials that are on display in museums the world over ........This one will be interesting
 
No, yahoo it.
Yeah the world over is full of pyramidal treasures , you are a clown . some bits of wood found in aberdeen is your treasures .
,,,,,,,,,Quick google it but surely you already knew that ......My ar5e your knowledge of ancient egypt is gained by daily googling
 
There you go then, glad we agree.
can you tell me when the next major display of treasures from the pyramids are ?
You know like the Tutankhamun treasures that have been regularly displayed over the past century

Read what I wrote again, I don't doubt the carbon dating of the seeds, was accurate.
