Halefiyet:<\/strong> Abisi Djedefre’nin \u00f6l\u00fcm\u00fcnden sonra tahta ge\u00e7mi\u015ftir. Eski teoriler Khafre’nin abisini \u00f6ld\u00fcrd\u00fc\u011f\u00fcn\u00fc iddia etse de, Djedefre’nin ailesine (\u00f6zellikle k\u0131z\u0131 Neferhetepes’e) iyi davran\u0131lmas\u0131 ve onlara maa\u015f ba\u011flanmas\u0131, ge\u00e7i\u015fin sorunsuz oldu\u011funu g\u00f6sterir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Y\u00fckseklik \u0130ll\u00fczyonu:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ger\u00e7ek:<\/em> Khafre’nin piramidi (143.5 metre), Khufu’nun piramidinden (146.6 metre) yakla\u015f\u0131k 3 metre daha k\u0131sad\u0131r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hile:<\/em> Khafre, piramidini platonun babas\u0131n\u0131nkinden 10 metre daha y\u00fcksek<\/strong> bir zeminine in\u015fa ettirmi\u015ftir. Ayr\u0131ca e\u011fim a\u00e7\u0131s\u0131 daha diktir (53 derece). Bu sayede uzaktan bak\u0131ld\u0131\u011f\u0131nda Giza’n\u0131n en y\u00fcksek yap\u0131s\u0131 gibi durur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Har\u00e7 kullan\u0131lmadan, ta\u015flar\u0131n birbirine ge\u00e7mesiyle in\u015fa edilmi\u015ftir. Sadeli\u011fi ve br\u00fctalist yap\u0131s\u0131yla b\u00fcy\u00fcleyicidir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
