| "Congratulations on completing The Egyptian Pyramid Mystery
Is Solved! I read every page with great interest. It is at once
tremendously compelling, entertaining, well written and also structured to hold
one's attention. It is logical to think that, if properly published, this
intriguing work is certain to be a book of enormous popular appeal that will
make a permanent and very positive impact on people's thinking. A number of
best-selling books on ancient technology have captured the public interest over
the years, but none of them has made a favorable impression on the academic
community. In contrast, the research that your work captures in such a
fascinating manner combines good science, a unique and revolutionary point of
view, and academic material that you have simplified beautifully for the broad
public. |
| |
| "No one should make the mistake of thinking that your work is just
another book on the Egyptian pyramids. Rather, this material holds the
potential to open a whole new field of thought and investigation for both
academia and the general public, as it introduces and fully explains a
heretofore unknown and intriguing aspect of ancient technology with very
important ramifications for today and for the future. Your work presents a
whole new view of ancient materials science and the only logical solution to
certain difficult enigmas of the remote past, especially the construction of
the Great Pyramids. |
| |
| You have presented those enigmas so that their true scope is, for
the first time, really fully apparent. Most especially, in learning of the
secret you reveal for solving these puzzles of antiquity, your readers are in
for a very special treat. I do sincerely hope that The Egyptian Pyramid
Mystery Is Solved! will see the light of day soon." |

"Robert H. Stebbins, former Manager of EXXON's Minerals Division and a good
friend of mine, likes to observe that good data, persistently and persuasively
presented, usually win. The Egyptian Pyramid Mystery Is Solved!
certainly fills that bill. It should cause those otherwise pragmatic scientists
and Egyptologists who have judged your previous work on the basis of personal
bias to reconsider their positions. |
| |
| I
hope the book is published soon and widely circulated so that continued debate
regarding the significance of facts you have presented can become more focused
on fact and less on personal bias. |
| |
| It is a piece of good work!!" |

| Dr.
Joseph Davidovits |
| Dr. Joseph Davidovits, founder of the

wrote the following: |
|
|
|
| |
| "During my last visit, I had the pleasure to read your new
manuscript The Egyptian Pyramid Mystery Is Solved!
I find your
eye-opening approach very appealing. First, you shatter traditional thinking on
how the Great Pyramids of Egypt were built. Your clearly written work shows
that, despite what is assumed by scholars and educators alike, the construction
of Egypt's Great Pyramids poses a super-mystery. The Egyptian Pyramid
Mystery Is Solved! will leave readers unfamiliar with the solution
scratching their heads until the point in the work at which you begin exploding
myths and opening up a whole new way of thinking about the
problem. |
| |
| Your long dedication to the relevant knowledge is quite apparent,
and your own efforts over the past several years have greatly facilitated the
progression of this important line of scientific research. It does not require
an Egyptologist to see that the material presented represents advanced thinking
and clarifies a matter that until now has posed many enigmas." |

| "Finally, the long awaited breakthrough for Egyptology and
archaeology. Ms. Morris's scholarly, well researched definitive answer to
Pyramid and monument construction is a breath of fresh air in the technically
handicapped arena of Egyptology. The answer that is both technically feasible
and scientifically demonstrable, appears in the form of an old art practiced
throughout the ancient megalithic stone building world. At last, all the pieces
of the puzzle fit perfectly. The historical timeframes, existing technology,
and manpower are as Egyptology has stated; only the materials and construction
technology change as the result of the translation of an existing stelae that
described the process and ingredients and the recent independent rediscovery of
the process. No stone has been left unturned in this stunning piece of
detective work. |
| |
| This book is a "must read" for the archaeologist, history buff,
scientist, builder, and general reader alike. In a world crying for new
building materials and technologies, this book is destined to become a classic.
I cannot recommend it highly enough!" |

| George A.
Havach |
| George Havach is an On-Line Technical Editor for the
U.S. Geological Survey. After reading "The Egyptian Pyramid Mystery Is Solved!"
he wrote the following review on December 28, 2000: |
|
|
|
| |
| "The soundly researched theory of pyramid construction you present
certainly deserves worldwide attention at this time of "New Age renaissance"
and revival of interest in all things anciently mysterious, and I hope your Web
site will continue to attract hordes of the intelligent and
curious. |
| |
| I
find that the cumulative body of evidence you muster to substantiate your case
is truly overwhelming. I guess it really needs to be so, in order to overcome
the sheer weight of customary prejudice, within traditional archeology in
general and classical Egyptology in particular, regarding the methods used by
the ancient pyramid builders. |
| |
| Your book has authoritatively answered an immense number of
nagging questions in my mind about the building and embellishment techniques
employed in ancient Egyptian monumental architecture. You have decisively
dispelled the longstanding muddle of bewilderment and senseless speculation
about ingenious implements, supernatural scenarios, and extraterrestrial
intervention. All that your book offers has meant a significant breakthrough in
my personal understanding of our cultural inheritance from ancient Egypt; I
have never before been able to glimpse the sublime significance of this "wonder
of the ancient world" so realistically and relevantly. |
| |
| What I find truly puzzling is the degree of stubbornness, even
stupidity, that you and Joseph Davidovits have been met with so far in
attempting to explain the merits of your case to credentialed members of the
scientific and technical establishment--who, I'd say, should know better than
to fall such easy prey to snap judgment, selective thinking, and confirmation
bias (the sorry example of Christopher Dunn, author of The Giza Power Plant,
comes immediately to mind). |
| |
| Again, thank you for allowing me to participate in the
dissemination of these valuable and compelling ideas by hopefully contributing
to their masterful presentation within the pages of your excellent
book. |
| |
| Please keep me informed on the progress of your Web site and your
publishing efforts!" |

|
|
|
| |
| "It is said
that one must fight fire with fire. Morris trumps faulty scholarship about the
pyramids with superior scholarship. Like a relentless detective in a whodunit,
she examines in painstaking detail what has been written about the Great
Pyramid of Khufu, following each thread to its traditional and unsatisfactory
conclusion. Then all suspects gather in the drawing room and the real lost
secret is unveiled. It isn't a secret of transportation, or of cutting, or of
massive labor, or advanced technology misplaced in time. It's a secret of
.....well, read her book and celebrate human observation, experimentation and
persistence from the dawn of recorded history. Know as well that flaming
geniuses from early times have left their fingerprints on human civilization.
Although deified in their time, they were not gods. |
| |
| I'm an
engineer, arrived late on the scene. I can say that I greatly respect the
detail and honesty of her scholarship, even when it involves technical matters
far afield from her primary strength as a
historian." |
