A London publisher named John Taylor also a gifted mathematician desiring to analyze the pyramids astronomical elements. He studied it's measurements being seriously interested in the results from a mathematicians point of view.

From his findings he deduced that it was not possible that the Great Pyramid was built by the Egyptians. He tried to find a correlation between the inner chambers and corridors of the Great Pyramid, and believed that one day there would be discovered a relationship that would connect those measurements with history and Biblical prophecy.

Piazzi Smyth, a Scottish Astronomer, and student of Taylor, decided to affirm, or if possible to refute the findings of Taylor. Consequently, he lifted the investigation and study of the Great Pyramid into the realm of applied science. But the only way he could do so conclusively was to go to Egypt and do his own measurements.

The results of his work was published and highly regarded. Smyth summed up his investigation: "The Great Pyramid revealed a most surprisingly accurate knowledge of high astronomical and geographical physics..."

Smyth's work began to stimulate a growing belief that the ancient pillar of stone had about it something more than a mere tomb for a rich and ambitious Pharaoh. Something infinitely more than was ever in the power of the Egyptians to originate, or even to understand.

Flanders Pertrie, a mechanical engineer, was the next in line to try to either substantiate or refute the work of Taylor, and Piazza Smyth. His approach was with superior measuring instruments allowed him to measure to 1/1000 of an inch.

Although Petrie belittled Smyth's basic contention about the Pyramid's perimeter incorporating the length of the solar year, it was Petrie's meticulously careful measurements that observed a definite hollowing of the core masonry on each side of the Pyramid. This discovery led to the astronomical features of the Great Pyramid, thereby confirming Smyth's conclusions.
