I stand corrected.
My understanding now is that Origyptian is claiming or hypothesising (I am not sure which) that the Dynastic Egyptians could not have built the Great Pyramid of Giza because they did not have the means to do so, but it could have been designed and built by pre-Dynastic Egyptians who did have the means to do so.
This, to me, means that Origyptian holds that the hieroglyphs in the Great Pyramid’s Chambers of Construction/Relieving Chambers (that I pointed to as evidence that the GP is Dynastic Egyptian) are not Dynastic Egyptian but possibly are pre-Dynastic Egyptian.
In a nutshell, and as I now understand it, Origyptian is claiming or hypothesising (again, I am not sure which) that the Great Pyramid of Giza might have been/could have been/was (take your pick) built by Egyptians pre c. 3,000 B. C.

I wonder, somewhat fancifully; were the pre-Dynastic Egyptians who could, allegedly, have designed and built the Great Pyramid of Giza different to the Dynastic Egyptians who could not, allegedly, have designed and built the Great Pyramid of Giza?
If memory serves, Origyptian has suggested/implied/hypothesised (take your pick) in the past that the Lost Ancient Civilisation could have been/might have been/was (take your pick) ‘peopled’ by non-Humans.
This conjures up in my mind a situation in which we have pre-dynastic Egyptians being Extra-terrestrials and Dynastic Egyptians being Homo Sapiens Sapiens, and both being seen simply as Egyptians, i.e. one and the same.

I know very little about hieroglyphics and their history, consequently I cannot comment on the remainder of Origyptian’s post.
No, let me rephrase that: I know absolutely nothing about hieroglyphics and their history, consequently I cannot comment on the remainder of Origyptian’s post.
