Official word from Robert Bauval’s publisher (Century/Random House) is that his much anticipated – though delayed – book The Egypt Code will be released in a few weeks time, on October 5th:
“The Egypt Code” develops the pyramid-stars correlation, challenging the long held assumption by many Egyptologists that the pyramids were tombs principally meant to house the bodies of dead kings. In addition to this theory, Robert Bauval also reveals an amazing ‘Grand Unified Plan’, which involves the wonderful temple of Upper Egypt. “The Egypt Code” is unlike any other book before it and covers the whole of Egypt’s ancient civilisation in a manner never before attempted. Much has been written as to ‘how’ the Egyptians might have aligned their monuments with such high precision, but the question that has always remained unanswered is ‘why?’- why did the ancients put so much emphasis on astronomical alignments? And what could be the function, practical or symbolic, behind these mysterious alignments?
I’m hoping to get a bit more info over the coming weeks, and perhaps an interview with Robert, so stay tuned. You can pre-order the book from Amazon US and UK.
