The pyramid inch is a now discredited unit of measure formerly claimed by pyramidologists to have been used in ancient times. The first suggestion that the builders of the Great Pyramid of Giza used units of measure related to modern measures is attributed to Oxford astronomy professor John Greaves (1602–1652), who journeyed to Egypt in 1638 to make measurements of the pyramid.
