This slide is from a presentation I made to several groups this year. It is a composite of photos I studied of three pyramid sites around the world and the constellation Orion, specifically the three stars comprising Orion’s Belt.
Teotihuacan, to the far left of the photo, is a famous pyramid site northeast of Mexico City. I was there in 2005 with George Erikson co author of the excellent book Atlantis in America. Here is the link through Amazon. Buy this book. It is amazing.

Xian, in the center, is a four pyramid grouping near Xian, China. I have not yet visited this site, so I don’t know too much about it.
Giza, is the famous Giza Pyramids in Egypt just west of Cairo. I was there October 2008 and was invited to present my research to the Supreme Council of Antiquities on a possible chamber beneath the middle pyramid of Giza. They appear to be hunting for the same thing, one pyramid down.
Graham Hancock’s excellent book Fingerprints of the Gods describes Robert Bauval’s discovery of the Al Nitak, Alnilam, and Mintaka Pyramids at Giza matching the layout of the three stars of Orion.
Graham went on to discuss the possible matching of Teotihuacan and Xian to Orion.
I laid out the three pyramid groupings and Orion side by side:
They appeared to align. But not precisely. I had questions. Why were there four pyramids in the Chinese set? Why was a temple used in the Mexican set, the Temple to Quetzalcoatl? Why was the Giza set upside down? I show the Giza set rotated south to north to line up with the other two in this photo.
When I began reading about speculation that there was a fourth pyramid foundation discovered between the Sun and Moon pyramids of the Mexican set, I wondered if the alignments were meant to be compared as four pyramid sets instead of three.
So back to my original slide. Notice how much better the three pyramid sites align when they are shifted to allow for an extra pyramid in the Giza and Teotihuacan sites? I then wondered if there used to be a fourth star in the Belt of Orion. It turns out that there was a fourth star. It exploded around 8000 to 12000 years ago according to an Astronomer friend of mine. I included his reply post to me in the slide. The remnants of the stars explosion can be seen as a curve of gas known as Barnard’s Loop.
To my knowledge, no one else has made this connection.
I predict that there is a fourth pyramid foundation waiting to be discovered under the the city of Giza. It would be larger than the foundation of the Great Pyramid. I believe it is about three hundred feet below street level.
Hi,
Re;- orion-4th star.
I’m sure I read somewhere years ago that orion has a small 4th star, only discovered relatively recently (last 200 years) and only visible with a telescope.
To me this ties in with the 4th “small” pyramid at Giza.
Question is…….
If you can only see it with a telescope, how did the egyptians know to build 4 pyramids at Giza – 3 large, and one smaller one?
Regards
Steve.
Hi Steve,
Can you send me a link on the info you saw about this fourth star? Regarding your question about how the Egyptians could see a star that small, I did some research in Palenque, Mexico that seems to indicate the Maya knew about the telescope. In fact I learned that Dutch surveyors were with the Spanish when they found the ruins of that city. It was an astronomy city for the Maya. A few years after Palenque was explored, a Dutch scientist “invented” the telescope. I wonder if he reverse engineered it.
Hi,
Just wanted you to know, in case you didn’t, there is a 2003 book out (mine is a 2nd Print 2005 PB I received on 4-10-07) titled ‘The Secret in the Bible’ by Tony Bushby (see chapter 7). It goes into the 4th Pyramid or the Pyramid of the Moon aka the Pyramid of Sin (Egypt gods mythology) also noted as the “Black Pyramid” that is in Cairo & was dismantled in the Middle Ages. It may not be as big as you are noting, but again there may be a deeper base lower, which is sometimes the case of building a new edifice over an older & previous one. The Great Pyramid being the Pyramid of the Sun, make it & the missing 4th Pyramid of much greater interest. And of course now, more intriguing of it being 4 pyramids in relation to the 4th belt star of Orion.
Also, you might want to check out another person’s research blog to which I have added several comments down below.

I am founder & overseer of *The Academy*, a private email group in line with Plato’s & Einstein’s version. This is the 3rd round, unique as it is by internet. At one time since 1997, we had up to 3 websites. I have one set aside to rebuild most of what we lost, but have not had the time, nor my webmaster. We made the mistake of allowing others to host us, then became hostage to their whims.
Also, I am founder & overseer of another group called “The School” (also by email). However, in this one, I have set it up similar to chapters in a “SchoolBook”. It is tied to *The Academy*, but separate. However, all Academy members are automatically in *The School*.
Hope you find it interesting,

Hello Lynn (Catfish) Thank you for the information on the black pyramid. Do you have any photographic evidence of the pyramid’s existence? Is there anything indicating its location relative to the other three. If so, does it align with my diagram?
All the best,
JF Althouse
There is an account of a black 4th pyramid that was pulled apart by the scottish masons only thing left is the base 100 yards west of the middle pyramid. The account has two eyewitnesses one english and one arab from the 1750’s. This is noted in the book 39000 bce egypt…
Hi JF
Very interesting! I’d looked futher on this subject and came across this image:
http://www.design-laorosa.com/2012/03/ancient-pyramids-match-alignment-of.html
On this scale, were would be the 4th pyramide? Something tells me, but i’m not sure, that it comes to the underwater pyramids in japan.
I’d like to hear your view about this.
Greetings,

Groeten uit Amerika Sander ! I looked at the image. It was very interesting. They did not notice the fourth pyramid however. I made a new page and posted it on my website. Here is the link:

Feel free to look me up on facebook. I would enjoy corresponding with you. I was in Holland last summer for another visit. Love your country!
All the best. Jack
Hey this is very interesting stuff you’ve got. I was wondering about where exactly this fourth pyramid should be located in Giza. What is currently at the proposed base location? Do you have a more clear picture of this? Have you been able to do more research on this subject since the last time you updated this website? Very cool stuff. Thanks,
Justin
Hello Justin,
Find me on Facebook. I am in contact with the archeologist heading the dig.
Jack
Very true David.I am sorry that last dialogue I brugoht heat and not light on the issue of claimed parallel between Jesus and other pagan myths.I did not understand your position before I disagreed with you David. I am super sorry.
Hello JFALthouse
Is there any new news regarding to the fourth pyramid?
I am doing some research on the Giza pyramids and it is really interesting.
Mac.
Interesting, though Barnard’s Loop is way too big to be the remnants of so recent an explosion. My copy of Uranometria 2000 shows no nebulae in the area of your fourth star. What I do not know is do all supernovae create nebula, such as the relationship between SN 1054 and the Crab Nebula.
No news yet. I have to get back to Egypt and meet with my friends at Giza. They aren’t going to say anything publicly until the site is completely safe from vandalism and theft.
Hi James,
Thank you for the comment. Can you give me some more information about what size the nebulae should be? Regarding location, I did have that checked with some astronomer friends and it seemed plausable as far as line of sight goes, not relative distance to any of the other stars in the belt. Thanks though!
Hello Mac,
Sorry for getting back so late. Recession had me bogged down keeping the office and home going.
Latest news on the fourth pyramid at Giza is that my friend arrested two nationals who were digging in the town of Giza. The dig was illegal. My friend took over security for the site and moved the artifacts to a safe storage location west of Saqqara. He apparently has secured the site and is possibly continuing excavations.
