Study finds Great Pyramid's secret 'code' reveals tomb's true purpose

Key Points:

• Independent researcher Sefy Levy claims the Great Pyramid of Giza encodes a secret numeric system in its proportions, linking its measurements to lunar, planetary, and calendar cycles, suggesting it was designed to preserve ancient knowledge beyond being a funerary monument.
• Levy's analysis found that key pyramid dimensions correspond to important astronomical intervals, such as the lunar perigee cycle and the disappearance of the star Sirius, as well as mathematical constants like pi and the golden ratio.
• Testing 100,000 computer-generated pyramid models, Levy found only 2.4% matched these patterns, supporting his argument that the Great Pyramid’s design intentionally encodes this knowledge.
• He proposes the pyramid was built as a monument to Benben, a primordial mound from Egyptian mythology, linked to the Eye of the Sahara in Mauritania, theorizing ancient Egyptians migrated from there after a drought, though no evidence currently supports this.
• This theory joins other recent pyramid-related claims, including Italian researchers' suggestion of a hidden Sphinx and subterranean citadel beneath the Giza pyramids, though these remain speculative.
