The Puzzle of The Pyramids, ‘An Enigma Solved’ by Davidovits, no other theory of the construction of pyramids would be efficient enough. The ingredients needed for the construction in this specific process, were plentiful. The necessary elements for this project were found near the build site and were easily accessible. This theory is the only one suitable with the time frame of the Pharaohs life. With the other theories, the pyramid would not have been constructed until many years after the Pharaoh was dead. Additionally, the make of the Pyramid blocks not only look different, the density and make of them are different from the blocks mined from the quarries. This explains again why ‘An Enigma Solved’ is the best theory to how the pyramids were manufactured. One of the main reasons why this theory is the most plausible one, is because all of the ingredients that were needed to fulfill the project were plentiful in the surrounding area. As stated here, in two different sources, the materials needed for the cement like substance was easy …show more content…

”Density of pyramid blocks is different from that of the blocks found in quarries.. Quarry blocks contain cracks filled with calcite, whereas similar cracks are missing from pyramid blocks.” Therefore presenting the fact that Davidovits theory is valid. ”Carved blocks exhibit tool marks; pyramid blocks do not. Pyramid blocks were set to ten standard lengths and laid in different patterns throughout the pyramid.” It is logical that with this evidence, that these pyramids blocks could not have been mined but instead were poured on site. ”In natural stone, fossil shells are layered horizontally; in the pyramid blocks, they are jumbled throughout.” In conclusion, Davidovits theory is the only one that makes sense since the blocks that were mined in quarries consist of different materials and make of than that of blocks found in the Great
