Hidden Egyptian Perimeter hides i the gnomon “B”. Gnomons remain when a corner consisting of four numbers is taken out. For “B” corner consists of the four numbers in the lower left hand corner. Five numbers remaining frame the corner with numbers four, nine, two, seven and six.
Numbers found in this gnomon offer the perimeter around the square base in feet.

Now for the main course: Finding the Hidden Egyptian Perimeter. How do we find the perimeter by number of 3 in gnomon “B”? Twenty-four defines the gnomon total by addition: Four plus nine plus two plus seven plus six is twenty-eight. Twenty eight becomes the second perfect number after six; but it falls way short.
Before offering the answer, I must introduce the concept of “colel” .One may be added to a total without altering its essential numerical meaning. John Michell amply explains the concept. I feel colel comes from the essence of magic squares: Examining the 3 x 3 magic square sets the pattern for all the other magic squares. The 3 x 3 consists of the numbers one to nine set in a grid so that only two opposite numbers total ten.
Above diagrams are revealing: Eight opposites two. Eight plus two equals ten. Another example: One is opposite nine. One plus nine equals ten. In other words, there is always a plus one factor in the magic square with all opposite numbers!
Keeping colel in mind, multiply the numbers in gnomon “B”: We have 3,024. Read as feet at the Great Pyramid!
