Fingerprints of the Gods: The Evidence of Earth's Lost Civilization

by Graham Hancock

Very few modern buildings, even the houses we live in, have corners that consist of perfect ninety degree right angles; it is common for them to be a degree or more out of true. It doesn’t make any difference structurally and nobody notices such minute errors. In the case of the Great Pyramid, however, I knew that the ancient master-builders had found a way to narrow the margin of error to almost nothing. Thus, while falling short of the perfect ninety degrees, the south-eastern corner achieved an impressive 89° 56ʹ 27˝. The north-eastern corner measured 90° 3ʹ 2˝; the south-western 90° 0ʹ 33˝, and the north-western was just two seconds of a degree out of true at 89° 59ʹ 58˝.
