The Heart and Soul of Civilzation

Engineering is the discipline of applying knowledge from basic scientific research in the design of structures, machines, devices, or systems that accomplish a specific objective. In the broadest sense, engineering is the act of creating the artificial for the benefit of society and civilization. Without the discipline of engineering civilization would not exist.

Reverse engineering is an aspect of engineering where the technical principles of a device or system are discovered through the dismantling or modeling of that device or system. It is this process of reverse engineering that has been utilized to determine the function of the subterranean portion of the Great Pyramid.

If a structure or device from antiquity has been engineered for a specific purpose is not always obvious. However, there are telltale signs that engineering and design have taken place. First, there is an apparent order to the object. In the case of the subterranean chamber an entrance shaft plus a second blocked shaft and a pit all within relative alignment exhibit planning. Furthermore, there is also geometry in the chamber’s layout. Why it has been misconstrued as an unfinished chamber is because of the erosion the rooms has been subjected to.

Second, there is an architectural context to the structure or device. In the case of the subterranean chamber, the pyramid structure above it supports the concept that it was intended to be device with a specific function. This is supported by the great deal of design that went into the construction of the uppermost chamber as well as the pyramid itself. Looking at the complexity of the Great Pyramid’s internal design, half of which is underground, it is common sense to assume the pyramid was designed for a specific utility.
