Death of the Pyramids

Pyramids are bloody cool structures. Indeed and readers of the classic “Supernature” by Lyall Watson will know of their magical properties. Place blunt knives or razor-blades under a pyramid and they will sharpen.

However, they were both expensive and time consuming to build, and highly labour intensive, As the Ancient Egyptians moved down southwards (easy for looting in what is now Sudan) an alternative was sort.

Enter Al-Qurn (Horn) mountain. A natural pyramidal shape, it became a quality symbol and appropriate location for the creation of the Valley of the Kings.

And there you have it.
