    The great pyramid has an octagonal base.

    Not like a full equitable octagon, but quarter is split into two sides via a small concavity.

    I think the attached picture is the original one in RAF pilot took at dusk when he noticed that the shadow wasn’t uniform across the face of one side.

  Oh, so you think that you’ve got anything better to do with your civilized time? Like drink more room-temperature, unfiltered beer while playing even more senet net hab deep into the night-_wenut_s?

    I hear of places, neb, where frozen water floats in the sea that can cool our beer. Though I do not know what foul sorcery is needed to obtain it. Perhaps we shall gain wisdom from Osiris, whose limbs are intact.

  They should have traded one for Stonehenge to really fuck with modern-day antiquarians.

  Pff, kids these days. Back then we had Amun, Min and Re as separate entities. And we were happy with it.
