Using computer simulations of the ancient skies to crack the millennial code that the monuments transcribe, the authors set out a new theory concerning the Pyramid Texts and other archaic Egyptian scriptures.

Challenges the assumption held by various Egyptologists that the pyramids were tombs principally meant to house the bodies of dead kings. This work also reveals a 'Grand Unified Plan' which involves the wonderful temple of Upper Egypt. It also covers the Egypt's ancient civilisation.
