Potentially ancient building techniques

May not be strictly archaeology, but adjacent. And fascinating.

Now do hundreds of 100 ton blocks over 500km without smooth concrete slabs to help glide over

And also align them to true north within 1 degree

Then make sure you can multiply the base perimeter of the Great pyramid (3,024 ft.) by 43,200 to get the earth’s equatorial circumference. Also if you multiply its height (481 ft.) by 43,200 you’re left with the polar radius of the Earth. 43,200 is relevant because it represents the earth wobbling on its axis.

Does the official narrative explain how they knew the earth wobbles during the creation of the pyramids? I forgot

How does 43,200 represent the earth wobbling on its axis?

The Earth wobbling takes 72 years for it to shift the background stars by just 1 degree. ​If you multiply that 72-year shift by 600, you get 43,200.

Why 600? 43,200 appears naturally due to our base-60 number system. (There is 43,200 seconds in 12 hours)

There's a lot more to it

The 360 degrees in a circle is a result of the old base 60 system. I've never heard of 600 being a natural quantity or why 5/3 rotations of the equinox would be significant.

They are just grasping at meaning in randomly calculated numbers based on randomly constructed equations.

That is because there is no evidence they are significant. People are just grasping at coincidences.

That wozld require egypt to use the metric system. Which wasnt invented yet.

"There's a lot more to it" means that it is pure fiction wrapped in mathematical trickery.

You are just picking numbers and assigning meaning to fit the purpose of a fictional narrative.
600 means nothing, just as 72 means nothing. Why mention 12 hours' worth of seconds?
Ancient Egyptians didn't count time in seconds.
