Radio Interview with Jeff Rense on January 25, 2018

Hour Two

Hour Three

The Symmetry and Precision of the Ramses Statues

ram1

The Luxor Temple

ram2

View of Ramses in the Temple from the Nile Corniche

ram3

Entering the Ramses Hall, visitors are faced immediately with extraordinary features cut in hard granite

ram4

The White Crown of Upper Egypt toppled from Ramses head in antiquity

ram5

The nooks and crannies in the Ramses Hall reveal extraordinary attention to detail

ram6

An "in relievo" figure of Nefertari pushing against the back of Ramses' calf to keep him moving

ram7

The White Crown: Smoothly finished and apparently to strict specification

ram8

A copied reverse transparency to compare one side of the crown to the other

ram9

A surprising symmetry is discovered on the crown

ram10

Comparing sides of a different crown to the same radius

ram11

Is it possible that the crowns are crafted using the geometry of an ellipse?

ram12

It appears that the crowns were modified ellipsoids

ram13

Coming face-to-face with Ramses outside the Temple

ram14

Creating a reverse image transparency and comparing one side of the face to the other

ram15

Using the extraordinary geometry of the mouth, a Pythagorean Triangle grid finds correspondences with other features of the face

ram16

A different Ramses statue in the British Museum displays the same symmetry

ram17

Applying approximate computer measurements to the jawline

ram18

An error in the cutting where the tool dug into the corner of the mouth. Note that the lips were cut deeper to compensate

ram19

A close up of the mouth showing the rectangular toolmarks

ram20

An approximate comparison right to left. As a reference point, both photographs were taken
by aligning the camera so that the tip of the nose grazed the outline of the cheek

Further studies need to be made of the Ramses' statues using 3-D scanning equipment
