The Great Pyramid--mysteries abound . . . For example: Why was the subterranean chamber apparently abandoned and yet it is larger than the Queen's Chamber and the King's Chamber combined? Why is there a pit in the floor of the subterranean chamber, and why does the narrow passage that snakes south off the subterranean chamber come to a sudden end after 53 feet? Why was sand from the Sinai hidden behind the wall of the horizontal passage to the Queen's Chamber, and why is there a sudden drop in that passage? Why was the Grand Gallery built so large in comparison to the ascending passage, and why are the slots in the ramps of the Grand Gallery empty? Why was the antechamber to the King's Chamber built with both limestone and granite blocks, and what purpose could the so-called Granite Leaf have served? Egyptologists, pyramidologists, and others outside these two camps have attempted to explain such anomalies. Their theories are examined and compared to a new vision that answers not just some of the questions about the Great Pyramid but all of them as revealed in Books Written in Stone: Enoch the Seer, the Pyramids of Giza, and the Last Days.

In addition Charles Rigano provides new ideas on: How Khufu was interred in his Great Pyramid. How the first robbers gained entry and robbed Khufus pyramid. How Caliph Al Mamun in 820AD really penetrated the Great Pyramid. Why Heterpheres tomb is at Giza. Why there is a field of stone bases near Khafres Pyramid. The initial smaller plan for Khafres Pyramid. Conclusive evidence that ties the Sphinx to Khafre. How Menkaures Burial Chamber and Inclined Passage were built.
