Reply to comment by jamesgelliott in TIL Most archaeologists now agree the Orion Correlation Theory — the idea that the pyramids specifically aligned with the three stars of Orion's Belt some 10,000 years ago — is a fringe idea. by clayt6
Maybe that was the point? An inverted expression to represent the constellation, mirroring the heavens on earth.
Haha, it’s easy to be either a dreamer or a denier. Much of archaeology is about speculation using what evidence you have available.

Yes, it was supposed to be flipped. That's a feature, not a bug.

Maybe but where's the evidence??
Remember, science doesn't LOOK for coincidences.

Sorry, let me be clear! In Bauval's theory they're meant to be flipped. That's not a hole in the theory, that's part of it.
That said, I do not agree with the Orion alignment theory.
