The Giza Power Plant : Technologies of Ancient Egypt by Christopher P. Dunn

In writing The Giza Power Plant, mechanical engineer Christopher Dunn reverse-engineered the Great Pyramid at Giza to discover its use.

Dunn concludes that the pyramids were built with a technology superior to any presently in use and that they were "the power plants of the ancient Egyptians." He says the builders of the pyramids used them to convert the Earth's "vibrational energy into microwave energy." That energy "was most likely used for the same reasons we would use it today--to power machines and appliances."

Photographs and illustrations explain and support his theories.

Riddles of the Sphinx by Paul Jordan

Jordan details everything we know about the Sphinx--its structure, its geology, its place in Egyptian history, the cultural context in which it was made, the place of the Sphinx in Egyptian society thereafter, etc. etc. In this sense, the book is especially valuable in explaining in a highly readable fashion the scientific and historical basis for placing the origin of the Sphinx at about 2500 BCE. You will not find a clearer account of how such scientific reasoning works. At the same time, Jordan is quite fair in admitting where scientists and historians are simply guessing, or where they know nothing at all.

Secret Chamber by Robert Bauval

"Unusual, provokative and Pure Hermetic Magic! Secret Chamber is an unusual and provokative work, bringing into focus the complex but magical notions of Hermetic Thinking and its origins in very ancient Egypt. It weaves a strange plot across the ages which, as if by enchantment, find its way to the peak of the Great Pyramid on the eve of the Millennium. Many will criticise this book. Many will love it. It is that kind of book. It stirs the mind and the soul and induces them to magical thinking. Love it or hate it. That's the sort I thrill to read. A wonderful Hermetic journey awaits those who are endowed with the ability to be awed by this world and it's past. There is magic at the Pyramids, and Bauval has sniffed it out. Well done!"

Voices of the Rocks : A Scientist Looks at Catastrophes and Ancient Civilizations by Robert M. Schoch Ph.D

Asked to investigate the Sphinx at Giza, Schoch was troubled to find evidence of a much greater age than the 4,500 years suggested by Egyptologists. This led him to examine the possibility of a lost civilization dating back to at least 10,000 B.C. Looking at linguistic, geological, and archaeological evidence from around the world, he proposes an outline of prehistory that differs markedly from our received wisdom--after all, if the Lascaux cave paintings really are star maps, then we've got a lot of catching up to do. Schoch's willingness to dismiss implausible evidence and to use Occam's razor to cut away unnecessary complications is admirable and refreshing in a field in which credulity pays and skepticism is viewed with deep suspicion. Ending on a note of warning, Voices of the Rocks reminds us that by weakening the planet, we have made ourselves much more vulnerable to the next global cataclysm, which may come at any time.

The Orion Mystery : Unlocking the Secrets of the Pyramids by Robert Bauval, Adrian Gilbert

Bauval and Gilbert have spent over ten years investigating the mysteries of the pyramids.
Their conclusions have split the academic establishment

Best on the Subject
I have read many "wacky" theories on the pyramids over the years. I thought that this would be one more. Instead, I found it to be well researched, and quite logical. It brought me into a deeper meaning of the religious beliefs of ancient Egypt. There were no alien or U.F.O. theories, or outlandish claims. It was a refreshing , and in my opinion, valid theory regarding the thoughts and ideas behind the building of a "wonder of the world".

The Message of the Sphinx : A Quest for the Hidden Legacy of Mankind by Graham Hancock, Robert Bauval

In this riveting account of historical and archaeological investigation, the authors present hard evidence that the Sphinx, the Pyramids, and the other monuments at Giza are of far more ancient origin than previously believed. Complete with evidence of a conspiracy between the Egyptology establishment and various confidential organizations to keep the secrets of the Pyramids from the world, The Message of the Sphinx is also a modern-day detective story. Lots of photos.

The Serpent in the Sky : The High Wisdom of Ancient Egypt by John Anthony West

"Serpent in the Sky" is primarily concerned with popularizing the otherwise inaccessible work of R.A. Schwaller de Lubicz, who spent a great deal of time making exhaustive measurements of the Temple of Luxor and subsequently incorporated his findings into a comprehensive reinterpretation of ancient Egypt known as "Symbolism." A final chapter and a pair of appendices summarize West's investigation of an offhand comment of Schwaller de Lubicz that the Sphinx appears to be weathered by water, with the conclusion that such weathering necessitates a redating of the Sphinx's carving to at least 5000-7000 BCE and perhaps much further in the past.
