20 years after the best seller book: The Pyramids: an enigma solved,after 20 years of new research, and new discoveries,you will understand why the theory is more alive than ever, why more and more scientists agree, simply because it is the truth.

At the 1980, 1981, 1982, and 1984 Symposia on Archaeometry, Joseph Davidovits showed the possibility of fabricating ceramics by Low Temperature Geopolymeric Setting between 50°C and 500°C. The results obtained with LTGS have been surprising and very interesting from the archaeological point of view, e.g. the fabrication of ceramic whose surface is covered by [...]
The pyramids stones are man-made (synthetic, artificial)
Cast in molds
The Pyramids at Giza have more than 5 million blocks of limestone, until now believed to be CARVED stones, new evidences shows they were CAST with agglomerated limestone concrete.
The website reveals how Ancient Egyptians built the pyramids using man-made stones, which look exactly like natural rocks.
The limestone [...]
The scientific proofs
The “Lauer” sample under the optical microscope.
This photo shows a sample of the casing from the ascending passage of Kheops great pyramid, given by the French egyptologist Jean-Philippe Lauer in 1982 to J. Davidovits. Now, the cross section is characterised by the presence of organic fibers and air bubbles that do [...]
Why do geologists see nothing?
This is due to the geological glue, which, though artificial, is seen by the geologists either as an impurity, and therefore useless to study, or as a natural binder. At best, the analysis tools and the working methods of geologists consider the glue as a perfectly natural “micritic binder”. A geologist [...]

Summary of the Conference
by Joseph Davidovits
Vth International Congress of Egyptology, Cairo, Egypt,
Oct. 29-Nov.3, 1988.
Egyptologists have long claimed that no records exist which describe how the Pyramids were built. A stone stele is engraved on a rock at the island Sehel, near Elephantine, Egypt, north of Aswan. It was discovered in 1889 by C.E. [...]

Concrete experts talk today about how to make concrete durable. Many ancient Roman concrete buildings are still in use after more than 2000 years. For these modern concrete [...]
Fabrication of stone objects, by geopolymeric synthesis, in the pre-incan Huanka civilization (Peru)
Joseph DAVIDOVITS and Francisco ALIAGA
Abstract of a paper presented at the 21st International Symposium for Archaeometry, Brookhaven National Laboratory, New York, USA, 1981 (page 21).
It is now agreed, that the TIHUANACO civilisation is modeled on the pre-incan HUANKA civilisation revealed by an extraordinary [...]
