Hello Sirfiroth:





In the published caption associated with the above upper image, Peter Tompkins wrote:

”Petrie found no evidence of hollowing along the lower-level casing stones, running along the base of the Pyramid…

…A recent survey by two Italian scholars, Maragioglio and Rinaldi, indicates the casing stones above the base may have been slightly sloped toward a center line.” *

All three support a square base, resulting in a three (3) face faceted side, hence ensuing a twelve (12) sided pyramid.

The lower image of British Structural Engineer David Davidson’s Plan, reflected above three-dimensionally, illustrates the possibility of a five (5) face faceted side, ensuing a twenty (20) sided pyramid.
