Abstract
An eighteenth-century pyramid near Brussels contains intriguing mathematical ratios that suggest they were influenced by Egyptomania of the period. Jesuit priest Athanasius Kircher published several books on mysticism and symbolism that were typical of the times. He also wrote a book on acoustics and described the “whispering gallery”, an effect which can be observed inside the Wespelaar pyramid.
