Orion and the pyramids

The two passages in the pyramid of Khufu's tomb were once considered as ventilation tunnels, leading directly to the outside of the pyramid. However, Egyptian archaeologists generally believe that there was no ventilation system in the pyramids of the fourth dynasty in ancient Egypt at the same time, so these two passages facing south and north may not be ventilation holes, but are related to astronomical and religious implications.

Astronomers calculated that the northern passage pointed to the then (about 4600 years ago) Draco Alpha. At that time, Tianlong α was in the position of today's North Pole Star, and the stars revolved around it. Khufu and his former Egyptian pharaohs both claimed to be sun gods. The moral of "The Passage to the North" may be that the veterans of France won eternal life, shared the glory with the stars and continued to be surrounded by them. Nantong Road points to one of Orion's famous "Three Stars". In ancient Egypt, Orion represented Osiris, the god who ruled life and death and reincarnation. Its religious implication is that it is hoped that Pharaoh and Osiris will jointly take charge of human solar terms and make them last forever. The three largest pyramids, headed by pyramid of khufu, not only correspond to the "three stars in the belt" in position, but also show the different luminosity of the three stars through the size of the pyramids. In addition, if the Great Pyramid is aimed at the belt of Orion's three stars, then five of the seven pyramids of the fourth dynasty just correspond to the positions of the other five stars of Orion. What is particularly mysterious is that if we compare this map of the sky, the position of the Milky Way in the sky just corresponds to the Nile River in Egypt. Orion and pyramid of khufu correspond to each other in the sky and underground, and the Milky Way and Nile are also symmetrically distributed on the horizon.
