Just a quick question. Your measurements use inches, a scale that was nonexistant at the time of the building of the Pyramids. Why do you use inches instead of scales used at the time, cubits for example.

Re: Just a thought about proving guilt

I'm wondering if the more familiar notion of American jurisprudence about "innocent until proved guilty" with the notion that the accuser must provide evidence to convict or the accused goes free is resulting in this kind of error of logic?
This is a problem, if this is in fact what is going on. In the realm of science, the scientist asserting a theory is the prosecutor, and therefore must present evidence "beyond a reasonable doubt" as to the claims being given. As an analogy, the prosecutions "case" is what is being supported, and the Enoch Circle, by analogy, is the prosecutions case. Enoch's Circle must then be cross-examined by the "Defense", as are all scientific theories.

Re: Just a thought about proving guilt

Heaven and any one who can read, can see that I have painstakingly detailed every inch from the entranceway to the Kings Chamber in specific inches, and given the graphics to make it easier to understand, and yet some are still hung up in the Ante Room haven't started thru the passageways, so be it.
Since you are making the case, perhaps you can give us the evidence that Enoch was responsible for the design. As Percy has also mentioned, you also need to give us the margin of error in the measurements. Is the margin of error 365 +/- 6 inches, or is it more precise than that? This is important. If the margin of error is several inches when calculating the circumference the 365 inch measurement is not fulfilled. The problem that these type of arguments run into is post hoc theories. That is, you are pulling out one possibible outcome from many possible outcomes and arguing that only one specific outcome was intended.
Also, why is the circumference important? Why aren't you using the volume of the chamber instead? Is it because the circumference fits your already assumed theories? Why don't you use the square footage of the room, the height of the chamber, the diagonal length, etc.? This is another problem, the very fact that you pick some measurements as having meaning without first justifying why other measurements were not intended to have meaning.
Thirdly, and I don't think it has been mentioned but it may have, the pattern of the three pyramids at Giza exactly match the star pattern and star size of Orion's Belt. Not only that, but many of the other features of the pyramids also line up with astrological points of significance.
