> The pyramid sits at 29.979234 degrees north latitude, a number that closely resembles the speed of light, 299,792,458 meters per second, when the decimal is shifted. The paper speculated the similarity may have been intentional.
The meter was defined like 3300 year later.
I'm not sure if they already were using fay/24/60/60 as a unit if time.
Africa moves like 2.5cm per year due to the tectonic plates, so like 80 meters (270 feet).
The difference between 29.979234° and 29.9792458° are like 2.5 meters (8 feets).
