Let’s just say that’s exactly the purpose, to preserve in stone what angle to spear fish. What a terrible way to communicate a simple idea.

You’d think all the other parts of the world where they do it just by practicing would have built them too if it helped somehow.

Any context for what the heck this is supposed to mean?

No, it’s a pyramid they sort of fucked up on by putting on an unstable foundation and had to chance the slope of because of it.

To be fair, it was a precursor of the Great Pyramid, so they didn’t really know what they were doing yet.

Except for the pyramid but and the Bible bit, it’s accurate.

It would actually work pretty well as a missionary metaphor, to describe how you can’t argue from your own cultural bias and expect to catch many fish in a different culture, even works well with that quote.

Then they had a stroke and started talking about bent pyramids.
