Hi Audrey
If you will forgive this "fresh thinking" I'll try to offer an opinion

I think what you are looking at is windward and leeward, wind and subsequent rain stain
The wind if it strikes a corner like that creates high and low pressure areas and turbulence on the leeward side.
Dirt would accumulate close to the upper part of the corner crease. Just like if you have seen autumn leaves do the same on pitched roofs or
the old combi van with dirt above the back windscreen.
When it rains it will wash it down but it (especially if wind) will cause that stain pattern. Particularly if occurring over
4500years PLUS!

That is a long time for weathering to find the weak spots in the casing stone!
Amazing its not worse IMHO!

Wasn't there supposed to be a little pyramid on top. That likely had a stem that fit into the middle of the layer?
That would be the most unstable block in the whole thing and any sort of earth temour the pyramid would shake the top the most.
What is very interesting to me if you look closely is the T shaped interlocking of the blocks.
I reckon that was cast! OMG!
