Surely the Great Pyramid is much more that just a Water Pump?!?!?!?
Water has a very high value in the center of a desert. It is the source of life and prosperity. Egypt in ancient times was the granary for the ancient world. Food was plentiful and cheap. The Great Pyramid was and is many many things. But first and foremost it is a great machine. It is a machine that can transform the barren desert into a bountiful harvest. It is a machine that changed wasteland into land that groaned with crops or blossomed with roses. The Pyramid Pump meant freedom from want, abundant food, a glorious conquest of environment, and social security. The Great Pyramid was the Ancient’s high water mark in mind over matter! The largest structure now in the Nile valley was built and is used to pump water. This structure is called the Aswan High Dam and it generates electricity used to pump water. In 1947 the largest structure on earth built by man was a self contained, self powered water pump. That structure is called the Grand Coulee Dam.
