Matt Sibson Claims Lost Egyptian Sacred Book Holds Secret of the Pyramids

3/30/2019

26 Comments

 
​As a reminder, for the next week, I am reducing my blog output as I work on reviewing Graham Hancock’s America Before.
 
Last week, The Daily Star, ran a piece (picked up within hours by Sputnik) about ancient Egypt alleging that a lost book contains all of the secrets of the pyramids. The claim comes from Matt Sibson, the blogger and YouTuber whom we met last year when he alleged that the hoax Zeno map was actually an antediluvian chart of Atlantis. In his latest brain dropping, he misunderstood his sources and mangled yet another effort to understand ancient history, this time the Great Pyramid of Giza:
​After building the structures, Khufu was said to go on to “write a sacred book” which later came into the possession of Manetho – an Egyptian priest and scholar. […] Manetho also said that Suphis wrote a Sacred Book, which Manetho then came to be in possession of. But, as Matt revealed, there is "no mention" of this book in any later works "and it seems to have disappeared from history".
 
“I have a feeling that this book holds the answer to all the things we are looking for regarding the history of the pyramids of Egypt," he added.
​The reference in question is not actually from Manetho, at least not directly. Instead, it is found in George Syncellus’s ninth century discussion of Sextus Julius Africanus’s third century summary of Manetho’s account of Egyptian history. Syncellus quotes Africanus as follows:
Suphis [I], for 63 years. He reared the Great Pyramid, which Herodotus says was built by Cheops. Suphis conceived a contempt for the gods: he also composed the Sacred Book, which I acquired in my visit to Egypt because of its high renown. (trans. W. G. Waddell)
​A second version of the passage exists, recorded by Eusebius in the section of his fourth-century Chronicle that survives only in Armenian. Syncellus preserved this passage in Eusebius’ original Greek:
Of these the third was Suphis, the builder of the Great Pyramid, which Herodotus says was built by Cheops. Suphis conceived a contempt for the gods, but repenting of this, he composed the Sacred Book, which the Egyptians hold in high esteem. (trans. Waddell)
​Sibson is obviously relying on the second version, but while Eusebius lived four centuries before Syncellus, it was Syncellus who quoted Africanus more accurately. Eusebius, working from different copies, minimized Africanus’s personal details, but we know—ironically from Eusebius himself (Church History 6.31.2) that Africanus did indeed travel to Egypt to study with the Bishop of Alexandria. (Wikipedia similarly misreads Africanus to claim Manetho bought the book, though an Egyptian priest obviously did not need to visit Egypt.) While Eusebius ran the two thoughts together and tried to connect them with a Christian-style repentance narrative, there is no indication in the more accurate version that Manetho attributed a sacred book to Khufu. A plain reading is that Africanus described his own experience in Egypt on his own authority.
 
Africanus tells us that he purchased a book written by Suphis, Manetho’s name for Khufu, which the Egyptians of the third century held in high esteem. What Sibson fails to note is that books like this are not suppressed, forgotten, or otherwise hidden to protect pyramid secrets. By the Late Period of Egypt, Khufu was seen as a magical figure, whose name served a talismanic function. In the wisdom-literature of the Hellenistic and Late Antique periods, Khufu’s name was attached to magical texts much the way alchemical books bore the fictitious ascription to Hermes Trismegistus.
 
Africanus almost certainly described picking up one of these books passing under Khufu’s name, which he likely mistook for a genuinely ancient Egyptian text, just as his contemporaries mistook Hermetic books for antediluvian lore.

Let's take a look at the sarcophagus of Khufu, where traces of drills have been found, with a diameter of 11 cm
(Denys Stocks, Experiments in the Egyptian Archaeology, page 42). This are the measurements of the sarcophagus
(page 172): Exterior:228/98/105 cm ; Interior: 198/68/87 cm; wall thickness ~ 20 cm

The drill has a diameter of 11 cm and we will assume a thickness of 0.5 cm (as this is the maximum thickness used in the drilling and cutting experiments, page 117)
This gives us an exterior area (of the drill) of 95 square cm and an interior area of 79 suare cm. Therefore the area of the metal ring is 16 square cm.

Let's assume a 10 hour workday (even though the workday may be longer if necessary)

Let's calculate the cutting time (12 cubic cm/hour, page 115):


the long side= 228 cm x 105 cm = 23940 square cm
23940 square cm x 0.5 cm = 11 970 cubic cm that must be cut
short side 105 cm x 98 cm = 10290 square cm
10290 square cm x 0.5 cm = 5145 cubic cm that must be cut
bottom & lid 228 cm x 98 cm = 22344 square cm
22344 square cm x 0.5 cm = 11172 cubic cm that must be cut

2 sides can be cut at the same time by 2 teams

cutting time for long sides: 11 970 cubic cm : 12= 998 hours - 100 days
cutting time for short sides: 5145 cubic cm : 12 = 429 hours - 43 days
cutting time for lid & bottom: 11172 cubic cm : 12= 931 hours - 93 days




The inner perimeter of the sarcophagus can be achieved with 44 holes (page 173, I suggest you check the diagram, drawn to scale)
Stocks proposes that the core was weakeaned by 18 holes (62 total) before being snaped
Let's also double that number, just for the sake of argument: 36 holes (80 total)

Now let's calculate the drilling by 2 methods:

1) by speed:
cutting rate 6cm/20hour (page 115)

one hole till bottom (87 cm): 290 hours =29 days because x=(87x20)/6
80 holes till bottom: 290 x 80 =23200 hours =2320 days = 78 months = 6.5 years (1 team) ==> 3.2 years (2 teams)
62 holes till bottom:290 x 62 =17980 hours = 1798 days = 60 months = 5 years (1 team) ==> 2.5 years (2 teams)

2) by volume:
cutting rate 5 cubic cm/hour (page 115)
one hole till bottom (volume): 16 (ring area) square cm x 87 cm =1392 cubic cm
one hole till bottom (time): 279 hours - 28 days
80 holes till the bottom: volume: 111360 cubic cm; time - 22272 hours - 2228 days - 75 months ~6 years (1 team) ==> ~ 3 years (2 teams)
62 holes till the bottom: volume: 86304 cubic cm; time - 17261 hours -1726 days - 58 months - 4.8 years (1 team) ==> 2.4 years (2 teams)

Sequence of events:
1) cutting of the top - 93 days
2) cutting of the lateral 4 sides (~5 months) and drilling ( 3.2 years, assuming the 80 holes, again, for the sake of argument) = 3.2 years
4) cutting of the lid (assuming it was cut at the end from the bottom part) - 93 days
TOTAL= 3.2 years + 0.5 years = 3.7 years

Let's add 1 more year for the dressing of the interior and for all the time errors I didn't took into a count ==> 4.7 years

This proves that a sarcophagus alike the one of Khufu can be attained in less then 5 years, from start to finish. I used the available data.

Keep in mind that:
1) different sand and abrasives may give better rates
2) the bigger the sarcophagus, the more drilling teams can work at the same time (like the ones of Tutankhamun)
3) the lid can be worked from another stone, saving time

Feel free to check all the calculus.

Many times when a reference is made to the pyramid there ensues a flurry of conversation about its age and the technology involved in its construction. I would assume that this is an instance of someone getting their shot in early.

I had a dispute with someone who claimed that Egyptians couldn't possibly make granite sarcophagi, so I made this, posted it here and sent him the link. Although you are right, perhaps I should have clarify this since the beginning.

The operative words here may be 'Daily' and 'Star'. This is not a good newspaper. In fact, here in the UK it is seen as a joke.If you are not interested in reality tv shows and soaps, horoscopes or bare breasted beauties it has little to offer. Its impossible to imagine this piece being run under any reputable editor.

"Suphis"...Does this have anything to do with "Sophia"... AKA...Wisdom??? Many Fringe writers like to play word similarity games.

I have actually lost count of alleged "Lost Books". They all contain "Wisdom of the Ancients" or "Secrets of the Ancients". Most books of Woo repeatedly use these phrases, mixed with pictures of the Pyramids, architectural remnants, religious artifacts, iconography, and exquisite works of ancient craftsmanship, and art. Leaving the reader's imagination to fill in the gaps. Basically, a picture book full of quotes from other Woo authors, with less than two paragraphs of original thought.

There are at least two Trademarked symbols carved into the white quartz of NewGrange. I didn't do it!
There are numerous examples of the same "Hooked X" within Egyptian wall art, showing Astronomy lessons. I did not put them there.
I did not carve the KRS, NRS, or the SPRS. I wasn't born yet.
I did not build the Newport Tower. I did not carve Pentadic numbers, Runic symbols, Religious Expressions, or the "Hooked X" onto said tower. They are just there.

I am curious as to WHY?

Once in a while I would get a student in class whose first or last name started with O who would turn the O into a smiley face when submitting written work. Would imagine that this happens anywhere where people use a letter O. I can't help but think that two thousand years from now, someone will come across examples of this and then start expounding on the ancient secret global smiley face cult and then get upset when people suggest that it is JUST A FRIGGIN SMILEY FACE!!

Doc Roc,

Within the context of homework, your argument stands. In the context of the Winter Solstice, the Trademarked symbol, found in conjunction with structures designed to capture the light of both the Sun, and Venus on this particular day...That speaks to a specialized knowledge. Not known to a "hundred billion" people. Just a select few. Did this symbol retain the same meaning over 5,000 years span?
Possibly...IF... The underlying meaning is Astronomy/celestial cycles.

I have no idea why people started capturing the light of the Sun and Venus. This is what I wish to understand. This practice still continues. I think it's cool.

Kent

"structures designed to capture the light of both the Sun, and Venus on this particular day"

Given Venus's 8 year cycle I'd be interested in hearing your ideas on how the light of the Sun and Venus was captured on the Winter Solstice. I'll tell you upfront that references to books you can't remember will be rejected out of hand.

An important first step in getting into WHY a pattern exists is to establish that one actually exists. Call me close-minded but I'm not really interested in self-published research by non-specialists that plays the "this here kinda looks like that over there so they are clearly connected" game. Or, "if you squat down and squint your eyes at dusk you can see briefly see something that kind of looks like an X at this spot." Sorry.

Maybe there is some good objective legitimate published research out there that I haven't seen yet. If not, maybe some day someone will do it. In the meantime, I will be in the lounge.....

"Uriel's Machine" Knight, Lomas
"Rosslyn Revealed" Butler, Ritchie

The only two books I'm aware of which even briefly discuss this topic.

EXACTLY!!! I know what y'all are thinking. This is why, I am seeking the interest of legitimate authorities. No one is going to take a BA in Psychology seriously. I am not writing a book. I haven't had anything published since college. That was Poetry not a work of Scholarship, or Woo.

EXACTLY!!! If you think people take your posts here seriously that's another example of your pareideolia.

Uriel's Machine is what is called 'woo', pseudoscience. But it happens to fit your religion.

Rosslyn Chapel's 'light-box' has no basis in historical fact as it was installed in the 1860s, along with all the stained glass visible today. The original medieval stained glass was forcibly removed at the Scottish Reformation (1560), the wooden screens taken out, the altars razed to the ground, the church plate and vestments and liturgical books destroyed by marauding bands of Reformers.

The Chapel as we see it today is a victim of well-meaning Victorian 'restoration' and the equally well-meaning interior paint applied by the Ministry of Works in the 1950s. The Freemasonry symbols were also added by the Fourth Earl in the 1860s when damaged stone carvings were replaced.

As for the Knights Templar, the Sinclairs were Crusaders - Templars had to swear vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, while the Sinclairs were rich, married and not committed to any religious monastic Rule. There is no American Corn, the Apprentice pillar is a widespread popular cautionary tale. For more on this, read 'Rosslyn Chapel Revealed' (Sutton Publishing Ltd., 2007).

"Uriel's Machine is what is called 'woo', pseudoscience."

Yes, however, this work introduces people to the ideas of Latitude Lozenges, capturing light, and Time tracking using day/night ratios.

"But it happens to fit your religion."

There you go assuming again. What is my religion? I didn't know I had one.

How do you explain Castle Acre, Winchester Cathedral, and Trinity Church just to name three.

"As for the Knights Templar, the Sinclairs were Crusaders - Templars had to swear vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, while the Sinclairs were rich, married and not committed to any religious monastic Rule.

I NEVER mentioned the Knights Templar. You have me confused with someone else.
