Related, physicist Kurt Mendelssohn’s The Riddle of the Pyramids is a great read. It proposes that the “bent” pyramid has its shape because of the catastrophic collapse of another pyramid being built at the same time, which led to choosing a safer angle for the remaining portion of the bent pyramid. It took away a lot of the marketing “mystery” of the pyramids for me, instead taking a very practical engineering, scientific, and analytical approach to investigating the pyramid phenomenon.
