Papers on the Great Pyramid is a book written by St. John Vincent Day that delves into the mysteries of the Great Pyramid of Egypt. The book includes a critical examination of Sir Henry James' notes on the pyramid, which were published in 1870. Day's work provides a comprehensive analysis of the pyramid's construction, its purpose, and its significance in ancient Egyptian culture. He explores various theories surrounding the pyramid's design, including the possibility that it was used as an astronomical observatory or as a tomb for the pharaoh Khufu. Day also discusses the pyramid's alignment with the stars and its relationship to other ancient monuments in Egypt. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and architecture of ancient Egypt, as well as for those who are fascinated by the enduring mysteries of the Great Pyramid.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
