There is a secret… A secret that has been kept for 5000 years. Some have called it the “Riddle of the Ages.” How was the Great Pyramid built? What purpose did it serve? It has baffled scientists, philosophers and dreamers. Now… what if there was a man… A visionary, a creative genius, an engineer… Who had a theory. A theory so revolutionary, so controversial, so simple, Nobody dare believe it. No colossal ramps, no monstrous contraptions,  no lost civilizations, and no aliens… A theory that defies the lifelong beliefs of even the most famous scientists and Egyptologists. This visionary dedicated his life to proving it… and died an outsider, an unknown, an outcast. But now, what if new evidence could be found… What if his theory could be demonstrated… What if new technologies could reveal the truth… What if this simple man had solved… the Riddle of the Ages!
