How Did Redford Build The Pyramids

How were the Egyptian pyramids built ? Egyptian pyramids were built originally for the burial of the kings of the Pharaohs at the time. There were about 138 pyramids built in Egypt and the largest of the pyramids is the pyramid of Cheops in Giza, which is one of the seven ancient wonders, and since then mystery has surrounded on how the Egyptian pyramids were built. Scientists have long puzzled and stood helpless in front of the issue trying to uncover the secret of its construction. Some researches say that the pyramids were built of clay and heat, some others say that there may have been machinery, equipment and instruments hid we did not know about. Did scientists find a solution to the puzzle of building the pyramids in ancient Egypt

They would force in wooden pegs at the bottom into slots they had cut, and filled the slots with water. The pegs would expand, split the stone, and the block was then slid down onto a waiting boat. Men used to drag stones on a slipway which was lubricated with oil. Once on the construction site, ramps were built to get them into place on the pyramid. They were rounded not straight. Redford says, "because in laying the upper layers of a great pyramid, the gradient necessary for a straight ramp would be impossible". Redford believes that if they raised the ramp constantly as the teams drag their blocks up they would get into place easily because if just 20 of his workers are capable of pulling up a two and a half ton granite block then its not impossible for men to drag stones back at the time as

Benjamin explains that rocks were carried from as far as 600 miles away in Aswan and transported to Giza, probably on rafts down the Nile during the rainy season. A level surface was prepared and a causeway was built from the Nile toward Giza. The stones were pulled on sleds or over rolling logs near the pyramid, where stonemasons prepared the slabs. Once the four sides of the foundation of the pyramids are set, each layer is added respectively higher off the ground. According to benjamin there are a couple of ways to add the heavy
