Figure 19 - Planetary Correlation of the Giza Pyramids ‒ P4 Program Description
Cross section of the original state of the Great Pyramid with details of the "Mars position" and its environment (upper inset) during the astronomical events in the year 3088 AD. The levels of the courses were measured by W. M. F. Petrie [6, Map VIII]. The shape of the blocks of stone around the opening of the southern air shaft is taken from a drawing of Maragioglio and Rinaldi [9, part IV, map 2, Fig. 2]. This drawing, where we find also the numbers of the courses, was published in 1965. Today, in the year 2014 some more blocks have been removed around the mouth of the air shaft. So, the reader can compare the state of 1965 with the situation at present.
