The three Giza pyramids, cased white with gold caps, rising from a tropical forest beside a flooded valley, seen from the air.

Seked

The Giza plateau rebuilt from the survey, path traced in five eras from the First Time of 10,500 BCE to today. Every "encoded mathematics" claim about the pyramids is computed live from the measurement database, so you can see a claim and test it in the same place.

The exhibit

The case for an older Giza, narrated in ten chapters across the plateau: the argument of West, Schoch, Bauval and Hancock at its strongest, the archaeologists' reply after each step, and what would settle it. About ten minutes. Press Play and it runs itself; stop anywhere to look around, drag between the eras, or open the evidence.

Five eras, one plateau

The same stand, the same survey numbers, five moments. Today is the survey and Giza as built the conventional reconstruction. The two oldest eras follow Hancock, Bauval and Schoch's case that the plateau is far older than 2500 BCE, from the water-worn Sphinx enclosure to Orion's belt in 10,500 BCE, and draw it at its strongest.

The three pyramids, white and gold-capped, above tall grass and tropical trees.
Theorized

The First Time

c. 10,500 BCE. Polished casing and gold caps in a green Sahara, as the lost-civilisation reading has it.

The pyramids weathered and rain-streaked in a wooded valley.
Theorized

The long rains

c. 7000 BCE. The Sphinx enclosure worn by rain, Schoch's case for an older Sphinx.

The pyramids in fresh white limestone casing with small gilded caps over a desert plateau.
Reconstruction

Giza as built

c. 2500 BCE. The plateau as its Fourth Dynasty builders finished it, cased and capped, temples and causeways standing.

The pyramids stripped of most of their casing, with sand drifted around them.
Reconstruction

Stripped and buried

c. 1800 CE. The casing quarried away for Cairo, the Sphinx in sand to the chest.

The pyramids today, stepped core blocks with Khafre's casing remnant at the top.
Survey

Today

2026. The plateau as measured, with the modern city behind it from Open Buildings.
