OSIREION
The House that Giants Built
Figure 1: The monstrous blocks of the Osireion, seen here with author Graham Hancock.
The sheer size of this structure speaks for itself. As seen in figure 1, the Osireion was built using massive red sandstone blocks, some thicker than 5 metres, and dwarfing any mere mortal. This raises the age-old question; how did they move these megalithic blocks of stone?
In figure 2 can be seen an overview of the layout of this structure. Surrounding the edifice was a moat that was fed by a natural spring, a truly remarkable design.
