I would love to see a documentary where they rebuild just one pyramid today using only man power and basic construction.... I'd rather that than send a rocket into space
Agreed plus they dont show everything the astronauts do while they're in space so its boring but a documentary of building a pyramid today would be awesome plus probably years of entertainment in episodes of a documentary and learning awesome facts about the pyramids and possibly they could find out some of the mysteries of how the Egyptians built the pyramids by trying to build it ourselves today. Would be very interesting and entertaining to watch. If I had the money and it wasn't over priced I might even pay to see it.
that is totally different, building rockets is useful in a few ways. Most importantly the technology developed can be used to build missiles, send satellites, secondly not many countries can send people to that kind of heights (more about the rarity), is like when countries were still trying to build the tallest building in the world, the building is not particularly useful, but the message behind it, is what matters.
@@lukewatson1636 I honestly think people in those days had smarter methods in doing things. There are many things that people in the olden days can do but we simply can't. Technology might have advanced, but skills in problem solving might have gone backwards.

There is no where on this Earth than Egypt ... the most beautiful part of the world and connects your soul to ancient history. I love visiting Egypt and miss it.
Go to puma phunku or theoanaco the pyramids are closer to most Europeans.. but information is crooked by Arab culture & immensly sad information saying humans built this on their own before Bronze Age hahahahaha ( without areal view) let alone leave the weight of these blocks 😕👻👻👻👻 no we evolved from fish and bacteria haha , this Egypt dude is a horrible person & a crook!!!!!! the religious idiots should never mix with what humans find in the ground
they were build by hands ancient humans were not dumb and were hardworking.This experts will simply make assumptions like built by alien , magic powers etc.
The interesting thing to me is how exact the location and measurements are. It shows such an advancement in mathematics and superb planning and execution. I'm not convinced humans even built it.

@@UsmanAli-bb2oq The Chinese did not build the Pyramids at Giza (or any other Pyramid in Africa or the Americas) nor have they ever claimed that they did. The Classical Greek historian, Herodotus, said in his Histories, that the Egyptians built the Pyramids at Giza. He also described the Egyptians. He said they had “Black skin, broad noses, thick lips and woolly hair.” This is who the Egyptians were before Egypt was invaded and overrun by the Southern Europeans. The Chinese did not create the concept of Yin/Yang either. The Principle of the Fundamental Unity of Opposites, was one of the core teachings of The Memphite Theology, again from the Egyptians. The invaders so admired the Africans (who were the original founders of Athens), that they imitated them. But, the scientific and cultural achievements of the African Nile Valley High Culture, were in existence thousands of years before any Southern European and Asiatic people arrived there.
This seems odd to me: the pyramid architects came up with the complicated engineering of designing and building the pyramids, but the concept of a wheel escaped them.
The wheel was invented in the 4th millennium BC in Mesopotamia; they inserted axles into solid discs of wood. In 2000 BC the discs began to be hollowed out to make a lighter wheel.

i just arrived home to Australia after visiting the pyramids. They are mind boggling. I went up the inside but it scared the shit out of me. How did they build these?
@LTrain45 45 It almost certainly _was_ known in *Egypt* but would have been impractical there at the time. The terrain wasn't firm enough for narrow-tyred wheels at that time.
As an Egyptian we have developed a huge amount of theories about the pyramids construction or the design methods and the purpose but I have to tell you it will be always the Earth Mysterious Mission Ever
@@Traitorman..Proverbs26.11 younger dryas impact theory, look it up it’s kinda cool. In a sentence, a meteor impact caused a giant flood amongst other issues about 13,000 years ago. Some believe the Sahara desert sands show signs of massive waves and flooding, as well as the sphinx and a few other ancient sites in Egypt having possible ancient water erosion wounds on them, which would align with the impact theory and years and years of flooding/rainfall, which makes some think the pyramids are much much older than we believe
I love how Kufu, a guy with an ego so big, his deathmark on this earth, stood as the largest structure on it for 32 centuries, only has one statue of himself that stands a staggering 4 inches!

@@sanfranciscobay I have no faith whatsoever, that mainstream egyptologist have a clue who built these monuments.. I believe that they know quite a bit about those who occupied them thousands of years ago, but zero factual knowledge of who built them and why!
@@sanfranciscobay pure speculation good sir.. there's no blueprints, no defined claim of ownership, nor claim of credit for workmanship, there's never been a body found in any pyramid, and last but not least, the numerous Greek explorers reported that they were a complete mystery to them then, which was a time when reading and writing hieroglyphs was still very much prevalent in Egypt, which clearly suggests that they were not the culture that deserves credit for the pyramids. So, with all due respect, I can't agree with the antiquated Egyptologists view/timelines, that are based primarily on confirmation bias!
I’ve always wanted to go to Egypt and see the pyramids of Giza. This is pretty cool to see the history of the pyramids. I’ve always been so fascinated at the pyramids ever since I was a kid.
@@sirfer6969 None of the comments are stupid. It's simply a matter of opinion. My friend went to the Pyramids and was so disappointed. She she it was totally under-whelming, and boring, and didn't get anything from it that you wouldn't get from a photo. She also was HARASSED the entire time she was there, by men, and by people selling souvenirs. She said she couldn't even take the time to try apprecaite anything, because of the constant harrasment by local men. She also said it was dirty, drab, and filthy. I'm not surprised that she had issues with the local men. That is exactly one of the reasons I'd never go to a country like this. I did go to Stongehene, though, and THAT was worth seeing. It was amazing.
@@Alexa-dt8fm That was what really blows my mind more than anything about the pyramids. That is waaaaay too specific of a number to be coincidence. But how... and why... it's crazy
@@Alexa-dt8fm How would the ancient Egyptians have known the speed of light in metres per second? The metre was developed towards the end of the 18th century in France. Actually based on some inaccurate measurements for the circumference of the earth. Ancient Egyptians using the metre is a non-starter. Ancient Egyptians being able to measure the speed of light is ridiculous. They had no scientific theory of what light even was. The "co-ordinates" do not match the pyramids at Giza. They do not line up with any of the pyramids. This fantastical theory you mention, is nonsense.
@@dustinclouse6888 Too much of a coincidence? Many people believe that we came to be by chance, so why would it be so difficult for them to believe this about pyramids?
Yes, the ancient Egyptians employed chariots in war - but that came quite a while after the time the Great Pyramid was built. There was a beautiful chariot found in Tutankhamun's tomb in The Valley Of The Kings.
@@homersamson2635 Why would you assume that a civilization capable of engineering feats of such incredible magnitude would not have had the wheel at the same time? It is almost like saying the abacus was invented after personal computers. Keep in mind that most of the claims about what the ancient Egyptians knew or did not know were made by predominately European sources seeking to mystify these people and their works rather than actually give them credit for their accomplishments.
@@Argonova Your facile rationalization about the use of wheels - while comical - is incorrect. So follow the white rabbit Neo: 1 - look at those chariots found in Tutankhamen's tomb who live more than 1,200 years after the Old Kingdom. Note their flimsy construction as well as they are held together with leather straps. Do you honestly believe they could support much weight???? 2 - the war chariot was introduced to Egypt by the Hyksos who overran northern Egypt after the fall of the Middle Kingdom and controlled it for about century before the Egyptians - using those same chariots - drove them out = ushering in the New Kingdom. That was centuries *AFTER* the time of the pyramids. 3 - meanwhile a wheel focuses all of the weight into a narrow area of ground. This is why peoples of the Arctic Circle even today employ sleds rather than wheeled transport as a sled which is low to the ground disperses the weight over a wider area = allowing it to move over soft ground without sinking it as wheels do. 4 - also the weight of a wagon is held by the axles. This means that for wheeled transportation to be viable in heavy construction you need paved or packed road surfaces + more importantly you need strong metal to reinforce the wagon such as iron or steel..............which the Egyptians of the Old Kingdom lacked. Without these things a wagon with say a 10 ton load would quickly collapse under the weight or else sink into soft or broken ground. Moral of the story: so we see the Egyptians using sleds to transport heavy objects while those sleds were pulled by teams of men and/or oxen. An ox can pull more than 2X its own body weight so that a team of oxen can pull a multi-ton load. Now coincidentally we have actual Egyptian wooden sleds in museums as well as depictions of them using them + the worker village at Giza contained many tens of thousands of cattle bones which shows that cattle were there during the period of the pyramids. So assume less = and follow the actual evidence more. It is not enough to simply know of a "wheel". You must also have the technology to make said wheel viable for use in heavy construction. There is zero evidence to support the use of wheels in Egypt until as noted we see the time of the Hyksos. Better luck next time.
@@varyolla435 Reading comprehension is key. I never said that the Egyptians moved around massive stones using their chariots. I said that their chariots were proof they had discovered the wheel. Think it through next time.

This is better than a comedy. One of the best things I like about it is how they made these pyramids for literally no reason at all. Basically every word from their mouths is hilarious
No credible counterpoint then........ Just trite commentary from a newly created sock puppet account about how they are supposedly wrong = absent one iota of evidence to support that conjecture....... Who'd a thunk it. 🥱
The picture at 30:09 shows us that cement was used to encase a pile of small bricks. The same technique should be prevalent in ancient times to build megaliths and walls and columns. Therefore I believe ancient people would not quarry, carve, cut, transport, and lift huge natural stones to build any structures. It is very unfortunate that a researcher walked by but failed to see the big trove of information.
“Hadn’t discovered the wheel” has definite “thought the earth was flat” vibes. Do we really think nobody noticed a rounded rock was easier to move than a flat one
Seriously!!! They had been using Chariots pulled by horses for Millennia!! No, the issue here is the established archeological/historical sequence of events. Once precedence has been established, nothing short of absolute evidence will overturn the conceptual historical sequence; that does well to establish a baseline from which all other historical ideas or sequences are categorized. However, because the founders of this baseline are considered the "Fathers of Archeology", it becomes extraordinarily difficult to challenge the preconceived notions of the Past, regardless of how compelling the new information is. The same was the case when a Theoretical Physicist and Scientist name Albert Einstein contended to publish his theories into the scientific Journal of the times. His theories directly challenged Sir Isaac Newton's theories which didn't sit well with the scientific community at the time; after all, Isaac Newton is considered a Father of Science, Physics, and Mathematics. Eventually, Einstein's theories were proven vital to our understanding of Physics and Astro-Physics and was proven to be correct through countless experiments. So, yea. My point is the Archeological timeline could be super inaccurate but there is nothing that can be done to correct it because of the scientific community; unless overwhelming evidence is tested and presented.
A rounded rock is not a wheel yet. You need an axle, guided in a bearing. (A wheel basically is a rotating lever, reducing the length that the surfaces sliding relative to each other must travel)

Hey everyone i'm a archaeologist, and for all the DIY google and Wikipedia "scholars" i would recommend you guys leave challenging the statements and facts to professionals in the field. I totally support you guys having your own opinions, erroneous or not i wouldn't scoff at a high budget documentary with real consultants if you aren't in the field because it makes you seem ignorant.
Your comment is especially relevant if one is incapable of constructing a simple English sentence. My comment is not directed to other language speakers commenting in English.

"Leave it to the professionals" Lol seriously fuck you dude.
Your statement makes you seem ignorant. You don't know what these geniuses do for a living or there life experience. Who cares if you are archeologists, which you can't even spell! Besides the fact Your supposed field of study is so much guess work.
What if you go back just to find that 4500 ago they are already built and starting to turn into a ruin...? Like it was already thousands of years old back then and kings were trying to turn them into thombs or making myths about it. 🤣
Then there are the cuts in the stone that show the round edges of whatever it was that cut them. High speed saws is what it looks like cut into the stone before it was discarded.
It wasn't a simple technology, but advanced stone masonry technology. When you are dealing with stones only for thousands of years, you'll develop many technique to master it. No alien hocus pocus, just pure ingenuity. The fact no record of how they build it, maybe a sign that the technique is not so special for Egyptian because its just common technique for the period.
_The fact no record of how they build it, maybe a sign that the technique is not so special for Egyptian because its just common technique for the period_ Sure bud, keep being delusional. The Egyptians did not built them !
Great documentary. With strong motivation we can achieve wonders. Power of humanity's common effort is astonishing. If we could work all together. We already have personal world communicators. How amazing is that!
I really hate it! I don't see the point of spinning around the people really fast like that. Are they trying to make an optical pyramid around the person and turn them into a god?
1. Perhaps the Egyptians felt no need to record how they build the pyramid. Within the community who built them, the process could have been common knowledge. 2. The process could have been a religious/state secret. Any writing of the process could have been destroyed after the pyramid era was finished and pharaohs were entombed in the Valley of the Kings. 3. The papyrus on which they were written turned to dust. 4. The papyrus on which they were written are buried someplace.
@@crand20033 it is known why they were built, the corrupt few keep it from the people. When you understand what they are about you realise that the bigger secret was kept from the few. It's almost amusing when you think what the architect had to do to achieve civilisation, and it's still at work today.
Perhaps they didn't want it to be known and worked hard to keep it a secret. I've always wondered about the free Masons and if maybe they know how they were built and are in charge of keeping the secret from common folk. The most logical explanation I've heard is that they used some sort of concrete technique and actually poured the stones instead of cutting. Who knows though...all the theories have their holes.
Note to naked science...if you feature zawi hawass in your program, you lose all credibility. He was suspended and indicted for a good reason, fraudster and only out for personal gain. If only he was seeking the truth...like us!
They couldn't have been stolen centuries ago by grave robbers could they?? Listen, since it was well known the pharaohs took great wealth with them into their tombs (including gold masks on their mummified bodies) it goes without saying thieves broke into them long before modern history started studying them. Are you for real??
They may have been intended for the purpose of a tomb but were evidently transferred to the Valley of Kings...grave robbers may or may not have played a role.
My dear Eric ! You showed the simple cooper tools have been used for block stones preparing. Can you prepare a single block stone using these simple tools ? How many time you need for a single block ? Now multiply with 2.3 millions and calculate how many people worked to cut, carry and placed them in the right position in the pyramid. And give an estimation for total time ... AND how they have cut the basalt block or granit ? The angle measured with a rope and a small stone has an error much bigger than final result of construction. An error with 2 cm for length of pyramid basis, at 230 m, each, it means 8.69 mm/100m. At your tool, the rope only is thick of 3 mm ... What we talking about ? In engineering the measurements quality is more then half of a good work. And at the Great Pyramid is a lot of Engineering. A lot ! PS: Let's say that cooper and sand could be solution for granite cutting in outside ... BUT inside ?
Your post is gibberish I'm afraid. Also you might want to first look at the actual evidence at hand before making sweeping inferences about supposed impossibility. lol! In case you missed the memo = Egyptologists work with subject-matter experts. That means engineers, geologists, etc. who upon analysis of the evidence we see conclude that the Egyptians indeed could work stone and build with the technology they had. Evidence is all that matters and not nonsensical mathematics and conjecture. Better luck next time.
Also very few blocks needed to be carefully cut and in some cases polished. Most of the pyramids if you bothered to look at photos of them are basically stacked rubble. In other words a hodgepodge of assorted blocks of crudely hewn limestone which is what you would expect to see from workers who were simply fracturing off approximate size chunks of stone based upon the natural layers of the limestone bedrock. As the video shows all you need to do is drive some chisels a little way in at intervals = and the bedrock will continue to fracture along the line creating an approximate sized block - or exactly what we see on the pyramids and in the quarries. ruclips.net/video/v-NsirLXUMk/видео.html
The Pyramids are truly an architectural wonder, but I think the ancient Egyptians used a "Mud" Brick for construction too, as well as Limestone. Truly amazing is that what they accomplished without the Wheel and Electronics. Truly HAND MADE, I'd say.
Depends on the pyramid. The first pyramids were made entirely of stone. As time went along however the Egyptians began to experiment using different techniques - likely to save time and money as quarrying enough stone to make an all-stone pyramid was expensive and required a lot of resources. So later pyramids had mud brick cores + cores made of smaller blocks and mortar + or they created "boxes" filled with earth and quarry debris which were covered over with layers of cut & polished stone.
no way ,this guy is nuts. i have spent decades building ,fitting stone and cutting and i can tell you this guy is blowing hot air. obviously he has no experience doing this kind of work.
Yurek Hunt All those people claiming that they were not tombs have no good arguments, often use false facts, and the best they can do is screaming that they were not tombs...
Tal Rasha You provided a source, something that most people don't do, so congratulations for that. However the video is full of false facts. Jimmy is quite enthusiastic, but he does a a very weak research (you should get informed properly before trying to debunk the official explanation ) I already saw it and commented on it, so I will paste my previous comment here. "Sorry, but this video is full of false facts 1) the mainstream archaeology tell us that the step pyramid of Djoser is the first Egyptian pyramid. The differences can be easily explained by evolution. There are the "failed" pyramids (Meidum and Dahshur) which are an intermediate phase between the step pyramid and the perfect pyramid 2) the detailed lineage of the pharaohs does not date back to 30.000 years, it usually dates back to the first dynasty. Also there are multiple royal lists and the tendency is to omit the less important or the controversial pharaohs. 3) there are 23 or 24 confirmed royal tombs in the Valley of the kings, I don't know were you got that 68 number. Note that most of the tombs in the valley are not royal. There is no reason the believe that there are hundreds of others to be found since the valley was used between the dynasties XVIII-XX and most of the pharaoh were identified. 4) Yes, the Valley of the kings is well attested as being founded at the beginning of the New Kingdom, the pyramids were built in the Old and Middle kingdoms. There were internal security systems both in the pyramids and in the valley, but they were different because the structure type is different. The large corridors (which exist only after the end of the XVIII dynasty) are dug this way in order to fit the sarcophagus which gets bigger and bigger with time. In the pyramid you don't need that since it can be added before the completion of the room. 5) the entrances were hidden until Ramses II and all current entrances of the tombs are modern. 6) Not all the royal tombs in the valley have elaborate paintings (see KV 39, 38, 20) the decoration evolved and it really got spectacular after Seti I. Likewise the first pyramids are not inscribed, but there is actual texts in the burial chambers after Unas in the 5th dynasty, the so called "pyramid texts". By the way, the Great pyramid and the Valley of the Kings are around 1000 years apart. 7) Tutankhamon was by no means an important pharaoh. He's so famous because his tomb was found sealed since the bronze age. 8) No one was buried in pyramids after the Middle kingdom (I'm not talking about small pyramid shaped tombs like in the 25th dynasty), for security reasons. In the periods of internal crisis the pyramids became targets. 9) there is a graffiti inscription in the last chamber above the burial chamber in the Great pyramid which was sealed until the XIX century, which bears the name of Kufu. 10) the sarcophagus is bigger then the entrance to the funerary chamber, therefore the only way to insert it into the burial chamber is before it's completion. 11) granite looks better, is more resistant and more expensive, it's a luxury item. Even today people use unnecessary materials for the same reason. You didn't show any evidence that proves that the pyramids were not build by the ancient Egyptians as tombs (and I am talking about all of them from Djoser till Ahmosis , even though the last one was a cenotaph) To use your own words, your theory "it's not backed by evidence what so ever, which contradicts what science is all about""
Clark Gable The Egyptians were able to cut granite and move massive blocks of stone, it's a well attested fact. There is no reason to believe that the sarcophagi from Serapeum predate Egyptians, especially since they are inscribed (and there's nothing amateurish about that). And there are plenty of arguments for them being tombs. 1) the Egyptians told us that they were tombs. You can find the information not only in Egyptian texts, but also at the Greek writhers like Herodotus. 2) they contain a sarcophagus and various sealing mechanisms (usually stone slabs), both of which are used in tombs since the Old Kingdom till much later. 3) pyramids were surrounded by a mortuary complex with temples and secondary tombs 4) the pyramid was used as a funerary symbol a long time after they were no longer built. 5) there were human remains found inside of some pyramids 6) most of them have a simple internal layout (unlike the great one) which ends with a chamber - a very intuitive structure for a tomb, attested not only in Egypt but in the whole world basically 7) the structural evolution can be easily observed from mastaba to step pyramid to failed pyramid and then to perfect shaped pyramid. 8) the custom of including a cone like structure above the grave it’s attested trough the whole ancient world (the pyramid tomb of Qin Shi Huang Di, beehive tombs in the mediteranean world or the tumulus tombs all over Europe) 9) there are scorch marks on some sarcophagi (for instance the one of Amenemhat III). The burning of the inner coffins was a well attested measure used by the grave robbers in order to extract the gold from the mummy. 10) and at last, there are the so called “pyramid texts” that are found inside the burial chamber from the 5th dynasty onwards. They talk about the dead pharaoh and about his journey in the afterlife. So why do we believe that is the same with Kufu? 1) the Egyptians told us so 2) it has a huge structural similarity with the other pyramids (the layout is more elaborate then usual, but you’ve got the same structural concept, shape, burial chamber, sarcophagus, sealing mechanism etc) 3) the name of the pharaoh is inscribed in the last small chamber above the burial chamber. It was sealed until the XIX century when it was entered by the aid of explosives. 4) it has a surrounding funerary complex with temples, secondary tombs, even secondary satellite pyramids (some of which are no longer standing)
Removed either by tomb robbers long ago or archeologists in more recent times and are now sitting in some storage area..........how facile and superficial is the "logic" of some. Most tombs are not open to the public. Those where bodies were found in modern times still have bodies/bones within them with the tombs are sealed under guard. Yet many early explorers would remove the bodies/bones and those that survived are now in museums. A few such as Tutankhamen still contain his body in a sealed sarcophagus under a plastic cover for public viewing. Meanwhile the bodies of his children buried with him was stored in a Cairo hospital for decades until the Dept. of Antiquities took control of them and put them in preservation. Lastly the Egyptians themselves towards the end of the New Kingdom opened multiple tombs and moves the mummies into central caches to try to protect them from tomb robbers. So it is sadly clear you have no clue about what you lament. Better luck next time.
I would love to know all the ways--how, why, what for, when, where--ancient Egyptians employed water. Additionally, to observe and receive a lesson or two of their swimming techniques...
I agree. The assumption being that their scientific discoveries are based on false assumptions, such as,.. they didn't have technologies that we are only discovering a fraction of today.
lmao its insane how they actually believe millions of accurately worked stones were formed using "simple hand tools". insane. constructions dont work that way. larger the structure, the construction methods must adapt to a largee scale.
I just want to laugh at and openly mock the idiots in the comments saying "we couldn't build it today". I work in stone masonry and we could build this - better and more accurately - in 5 years, if cost were no option. Laser sight-lines, diamond tip cutting, trucks, cranes, GPS mark-up's and on it goes...the physical construction of a pyramid utilising modern construction technique's is technically and easy job.
Absolutely we could build it today = much quicker and better in fact for the reasons you noted. Cost however is the true limitation given the economics today as you alluded to. Modern union wage scale for a skilled workforce of several hundred craftsmen over a 5 year project life would be in the tens of millions of dollars alone. If you used 300 union craftsmen and paid them 60K a year that would amount to almost 100 million dollars over the life of the project.
@@davidczerniak8418 How can you compare with a civilisation that passed 4,500 years ago lol if they're civilisation carried on then yes they would have been more advanced than we are today.
If they had said "Giant tesla coil usd to wirelessly broacast electricity over great distances" I too would not have lost interest. Egyptologits are full of shit.
The museum in Cairo has a glass case with a statue of kufu, and a little hammer. But some say that tosh (enoch) built the great pyramid. The quarry was 20 miles away. There is no way they cut, loaded, and fault the currents all the way back, and completed this in 20 years.
The quarry at Aswan where they brought the granite from, for the so called kings chamber (and many other monuments etc in and around Giza) was around 677 km away. How they managed that is just mind blowing.
The sheer number of enormous stones that would have been required to be cut, transported, lifted into place, and fitted would have been multiples every hour. With no record of how, use of wheels, or known tools.
@@number1bobo I totally agree with you. I have been around the world over twenty times, and have seen many strange things that I know man could not have built. And, I went to those places with the United States Army, Navy, and Marine corps. Some of the biggest, and strongest people in the world. With all of our technology, and strength, we new that it would be impossible for us to build. My Marine unit was assigned to Beirut Lebanon, and in southern Lebanon there is this stone of the pregnant woman. That's crazy big.
They were working nonstop, they had the tools to do such things, moving it was all done by slaves and mammoths or elephants pulling while they had them placed over logs, some places they would float them over water. People back then are masters of the architects.
28:06 ''but we should not underestimate the scale of their achievement'' says the narrator, after the dude explains how it would take us 4 years to make them, instead of 23 years, which was how long it took egyptians to build. What are you talking about? Who would underestimate that? I find that extremely impressive that it took them only 4 times longer(roughly) than what we can do now.
If it only takes 4 years I wonder why no billionaire tried building a new one, thats one hell of a legacy to leave, and 4 billion dollars aint that much really for some people

Gotta love how he denied permits to dig around the sphinx to uncover the hidden tunnels there on several occasions to several different parties that had applied for them. Publicly laughed at the idea. Then sneakily getting his own teams to do night time digs for those same tunnels later on. People started to notice random holes around the sphinx and later a vent shaft with a screen over it on one of the hind legs. Exactly where the permits he denied were proposed to excavate. Then when excessively questioned about the covered shaft, he denied and had the shaft covered up the same night. There’s things that were found around that complex that we will possibly never know about because of hawass. Simply because it would shatter every stubborn childish theory he ever had. Now the egyptian government cannot just release that information to the public as it would be too embarrassing to admit that even they were duped by this man child
@@michaeltrumph121 Ok, if they didn't, then some other humans did. Not humans at all? Then why not conclude that they build themselves? I mean, many people believe that humans and entire universe came to be that way, so why not anything else?
One day when I open a video about Egypt, it won't contain the Zowie Hawass and the Main Stream Archaeology Quakademia explanation for all things ancient.
Thank you for debunking yourself in the very first sentence: "Built as gargantuan tombs of shining white limestone..." It is truly an insult to intelligence itself to attribute these colossal structures, the Great Pyramid in particular, to savage barbarians only slightly removed from their primate lineage.
The pyramids were not built by chisels from a bedrock, as is implied in the video of slaves chiselling away the pyramid sides.. Those heavy tough blocks were quarried and transported. And to precisely position those blocks on that height and shape and sophisticated interior needed an engineering technology that relies on something higher than chisels. Isn't it obvious, Mr Hawass?

I believe the Egyptians inherited the pyramids. They may have made the mud brick ones. These masterpieces along with the stone bowls and such were heirlooms.
_"I believe........."_ = honestly you could have stopped there....... Moral: enjoy "your beliefs" if that is your wont. Unfortunately facts remain facts notwithstanding such subjective "musings". p.s. - perhaps one day you will wake up from your fever dream of "belief" to realize = "you" are not the arbiter of validity here - the experts are. That is why we have experts after all as they are the ones who study all the evidence to determine what is plausible and what is not = whereas you watch some video and make assumptions..... Think about that.
Pharaohs had chariots long after the pyramids were built. Don’t forget that the Egyptians civilization existed for many 1000s of years, and the pyramids were built early. But, I wouldn’t be surprised if the had early wheels, which we’ve never found evidence of.
Chariots were from greeks. Thats why u see in the bible they always say chariot of fire blah blah. History the way its told is bs. . Those were some smart niggas who built that shit. Very awesome.
There are leather remains of what may have been an Old Kingdom chariot, but chariots weren't popular for another thousand years. Try "We had wheels but no roads".
@@SonOfThineHandmaid Actually they didn't. They had the Nile and canals. The flood waters of the Nile reached to the Giza escarpment where a harbor was built just to receive supplies for the projects.
right, amazing i often could not figure out their claims, the egyptians chased the hebrews toward the red sea in chariots. but no wheels in construction toward building the pyramids ? something is not right here.
@@jodyguilbeaux8225 The story is probably a myth. No pharoah drowned and there's no archaeological evidence for the Exodus. The expulsion of the Hyskos may have inspired it. The Hyskos introduced the war chariot when they invaded Egypt but that was about a thousand years after Khufu's pyramid was built. Wheels would have been useless for hauling heavy loads in soft sand and they didn't yet have metal strong enough for the axles. Sledges, ropes, barges and canals worked quite well and that's what they used.
You will never convince me that these structures were built using basic tools and dragging rocks over hundreds of miles. I don't care how many slaves were used or how much determination they had. That's just impossible.
@Christopher Perry take your meds schizo fuck. what are the pyramids then? beacons made to summon superpowers? or maybe a type of signal that you finally left your mother's basement and your father that left to get milk can finally return?
Yes, and where is the ruins of the city that would have been needed for building the bent pyramid and the red pyramid. There's nothing. No mention of that absence. But one has to be there right? ...since one exists at Giza. Maybe the one at Giza only involved the construction of the Menkaura pyramid and not the two great ones. It was a huge undertaking...some 350 or so feet high. Maybe it was build ages after the first two, -or before.
Have you heard of the man in Japan that specialist in Stone wall construction...not even a credit card can slip through the cracks too...his knowledge might be of help in this documentary
It is really weird that there are no records of how they were built as the Egyptians obviously had the ability for many many years yet the fact that they recorded written records for everything else besides how to build their most sacred tombs is very odd. Why wouldn’t they record it so they ensure they can continue to be built long after they’re gone
To help solve the mystery of the pyrymids always look at the Gods that the egyptian used to worship back in those times.....the sun God was one of them the reson the phyramids align perfect eith the starts and when they were brand knew the shine as the sun

@@UsmanAli-bb2oq The Chinese did not build the Pyramids at Giza (or any other Pyramid in Africa or the Americas) nor have they ever claimed that they did. The Classical Greek historian, Herodotus, said in his Histories, that the Egyptians built the Pyramids at Giza. He also described the Egyptians. He said they had “Black skin, broad noses, thick lips and woolly hair.” This is who the Egyptians were before Egypt was invaded and overrun by the Southern Europeans.
The Chinese did not create the concept of Yin/Yang either. The Principle of the Fundamental Unity of Opposites, was one of the core teachings of The Memphite Theology, again from the Egyptians.
The invaders so admired the Africans (who were the original founders of Athens), that they imitated them. But, the scientific and cultural achievements of the African Nile Valley High Culture, were in existence thousands of years before any Southern European and Asiatic people arrived there.
This seems odd to me: the pyramid architects came up with the complicated engineering of designing and building the pyramids, but the concept of a wheel escaped them.

3:15 The ancient Egyptians had absolutely discovered the wheel. You can see their chariots in the museums.
Yes, the ancient Egyptians employed chariots in war - but that came quite a while after the time the Great Pyramid was built. There was a beautiful chariot found in Tutankhamun's tomb in The Valley Of The Kings.
@@homersamson2635 Why would you assume that a civilization capable of engineering feats of such incredible magnitude would not have had the wheel at the same time? It is almost like saying the abacus was invented after personal computers. Keep in mind that most of the claims about what the ancient Egyptians knew or did not know were made by predominately European sources seeking to mystify these people and their works rather than actually give them credit for their accomplishments.
@@Argonova Your facile rationalization about the use of wheels - while comical - is incorrect. So follow the white rabbit Neo:
1 - look at those chariots found in Tutankhamen's tomb who live more than 1,200 years after the Old Kingdom. Note their flimsy construction as well as they are held together with leather straps. Do you honestly believe they could support much weight????
2 - the war chariot was introduced to Egypt by the Hyksos who overran northern Egypt after the fall of the Middle Kingdom and controlled it for about century before the Egyptians - using those same chariots - drove them out = ushering in the New Kingdom. That was centuries *AFTER* the time of the pyramids.
3 - meanwhile a wheel focuses all of the weight into a narrow area of ground. This is why peoples of the Arctic Circle even today employ sleds rather than wheeled transport as a sled which is low to the ground disperses the weight over a wider area = allowing it to move over soft ground without sinking it as wheels do.
4 - also the weight of a wagon is held by the axles. This means that for wheeled transportation to be viable in heavy construction you need paved or packed road surfaces + more importantly you need strong metal to reinforce the wagon such as iron or steel..............which the Egyptians of the Old Kingdom lacked. Without these things a wagon with say a 10 ton load would quickly collapse under the weight or else sink into soft or broken ground.
Moral of the story: so we see the Egyptians using sleds to transport heavy objects while those sleds were pulled by teams of men and/or oxen. An ox can pull more than 2X its own body weight so that a team of oxen can pull a multi-ton load. Now coincidentally we have actual Egyptian wooden sleds in museums as well as depictions of them using them + the worker village at Giza contained many tens of thousands of cattle bones which shows that cattle were there during the period of the pyramids.
So assume less = and follow the actual evidence more. It is not enough to simply know of a "wheel". You must also have the technology to make said wheel viable for use in heavy construction. There is zero evidence to support the use of wheels in Egypt until as noted we see the time of the Hyksos. Better luck next time.
@@varyolla435 Reading comprehension is key. I never said that the Egyptians moved around massive stones using their chariots. I said that their chariots were proof they had discovered the wheel. Think it through next time.
The ancient Egyptians would have to place a two ton block in place every 4 minutes or so 24/7 for twenty years. What an achievement. Impossible.

“Hadn’t discovered the wheel” has definite “thought the earth was flat” vibes. Do we really think nobody noticed a rounded rock was easier to move than a flat one
Seriously!!! They had been using Chariots pulled by horses for Millennia!! No, the issue here is the established archeological/historical sequence of events. Once precedence has been established, nothing short of absolute evidence will overturn the conceptual historical sequence; that does well to establish a baseline from which all other historical ideas or sequences are categorized. However, because the founders of this baseline are considered the "Fathers of Archeology", it becomes extraordinarily difficult to challenge the preconceived notions of the Past, regardless of how compelling the new information is.
The same was the case when a Theoretical Physicist and Scientist name Albert Einstein contended to publish his theories into the scientific Journal of the times. His theories directly challenged Sir Isaac Newton's theories which didn't sit well with the scientific community at the time; after all, Isaac Newton is considered a Father of Science, Physics, and Mathematics. Eventually, Einstein's theories were proven vital to our understanding of Physics and Astro-Physics and was proven to be correct through countless experiments. So, yea. My point is the Archeological timeline could be super inaccurate but there is nothing that can be done to correct it because of the scientific community; unless overwhelming evidence is tested and presented.
A rounded rock is not a wheel yet. You need an axle, guided in a bearing. (A wheel basically is a rotating lever, reducing the length that the surfaces sliding relative to each other must travel)

It is through magnetism. We know this stuff. It's not some fucking mystery.

"based on a Magent expert. And I mean, expert"
How are you able to determine that one person is right while the others are all wrong? Again, this is the realm of fucked up people. We don't count on the views of one person to find answers.

Then there are the cuts in the stone that show the round edges of whatever it was that cut them. High speed saws is what it looks like cut into the stone before it was discarded.
Looks like Portland cement.. the blocks were cast. Case closed
It wasn't a simple technology, but advanced stone masonry technology. When you are dealing with stones only for thousands of years, you'll develop many technique to master it. No alien hocus pocus, just pure ingenuity. The fact no record of how they build it, maybe a sign that the technique is not so special for Egyptian because its just common technique for the period.

Egypt engineering: How sophisticated do you want the building to amaze modern people?
Faraoh: Yes
The biggest mystery about the pyramids is the story on how they were built. How does that story not get passed on to each generation
Thats exactly my question. There is no way that there are no records or stories of pyramids being builts in Egypt.
I don't believe they were built by humans. We haven't even figured out the reason for their existence.
1. Perhaps the Egyptians felt no need to record how they build the pyramid. Within the community who built them, the process could have been common knowledge.
2. The process could have been a religious/state secret. Any writing of the process could have been destroyed after the pyramid era was finished and pharaohs were entombed in the Valley of the Kings.
3. The papyrus on which they were written turned to dust.
4. The papyrus on which they were written are buried someplace.
@@crand20033 it is known why they were built, the corrupt few keep it from the people. When you understand what they are about you realise that the bigger secret was kept from the few. It's almost amusing when you think what the architect had to do to achieve civilisation, and it's still at work today.
Perhaps they didn't want it to be known and worked hard to keep it a secret. I've always wondered about the free Masons and if maybe they know how they were built and are in charge of keeping the secret from common folk. The most logical explanation I've heard is that they used some sort of concrete technique and actually poured the stones instead of cutting. Who knows though...all the theories have their holes.
Egyptian builders of the great pyramid are laughing at the ideas of modern engineers of how they built them
Well Said.
Unless the Pyramids are older than the Egyptian empire, could be why they left no record on how they were built, because they didn't do it.

They couldn't have been stolen centuries ago by grave robbers could they??

"Dark secrets of the dead for eternity" - naf said. I'm done after 10 secs.
My dear Eric ! You showed the simple cooper tools have been used for block stones preparing. Can you prepare a single block stone using these simple tools ? How many time you need for a single block ? Now multiply with 2.3 millions and calculate how many people worked to cut, carry and placed them in the right position in the pyramid. And give an estimation for total time ... AND how they have cut the basalt block or granit ? The angle measured with a rope and a small stone has an error much bigger than final result of construction. An error with 2 cm for length of pyramid basis, at 230 m, each, it means 8.69 mm/100m. At your tool, the rope only is thick of 3 mm ... What we talking about ? In engineering the measurements quality is more then half of a good work. And at the Great Pyramid is a lot of Engineering. A lot !
PS: Let's say that cooper and sand could be solution for granite cutting in outside ... BUT inside ?
Your post is gibberish I'm afraid. Also you might want to first look at the actual evidence at hand before making sweeping inferences about supposed impossibility. lol! In case you missed the memo = Egyptologists work with subject-matter experts. That means engineers, geologists, etc. who upon analysis of the evidence we see conclude that the Egyptians indeed could work stone and build with the technology they had. Evidence is all that matters and not nonsensical mathematics and conjecture. Better luck next time.
Also very few blocks needed to be carefully cut and in some cases polished. Most of the pyramids if you bothered to look at photos of them are basically stacked rubble. In other words a hodgepodge of assorted blocks of crudely hewn limestone which is what you would expect to see from workers who were simply fracturing off approximate size chunks of stone based upon the natural layers of the limestone bedrock. As the video shows all you need to do is drive some chisels a little way in at intervals = and the bedrock will continue to fracture along the line creating an approximate sized block - or exactly what we see on the pyramids and in the quarries. ruclips.net/video/v-NsirLXUMk/видео.html
How to build the right Egyptian pyramids - from an Egyptian contractor
ruclips.net/video/GaEWqMwEvis/видео.html
The Pyramids are truly an architectural wonder, but I think the ancient Egyptians used a "Mud" Brick for construction too, as well as Limestone. Truly amazing is that what they accomplished without the Wheel and Electronics. Truly HAND MADE, I'd say.
Depends on the pyramid. The first pyramids were made entirely of stone. As time went along however the Egyptians began to experiment using different techniques - likely to save time and money as quarrying enough stone to make an all-stone pyramid was expensive and required a lot of resources. So later pyramids had mud brick cores + cores made of smaller blocks and mortar + or they created "boxes" filled with earth and quarry debris which were covered over with layers of cut & polished stone.
no way ,this guy is nuts. i have spent decades building ,fitting stone and cutting and i can tell you this guy is blowing hot air. obviously he has no experience doing this kind of work.
Why do you say that?
Any video on the pyramids that consult Hawas cannot be taken seriously. He still insists on the pyramids as tombs.

ruclips.net/video/k5PXRKEdtvs/видео.html
Tal Rasha You provided a source, something that most people don't do, so congratulations for that.
However the video is full of false facts. Jimmy is quite enthusiastic, but he does a a very weak research (you should get informed properly before trying to debunk the official explanation ) I already saw it and commented on it, so I will paste my previous comment here.
"Sorry, but this video is full of false facts
1) the mainstream archaeology tell us that the step pyramid of Djoser is the first Egyptian pyramid. The differences can be easily explained by evolution. There are the "failed" pyramids (Meidum and Dahshur) which are an intermediate phase between the step pyramid and the perfect pyramid
2) the detailed lineage of the pharaohs does not date back to 30.000 years, it usually dates back to the first dynasty. Also there are multiple royal lists and the tendency is to omit the less important or the controversial pharaohs.
3) there are 23 or 24 confirmed royal tombs in the Valley of the kings, I don't know were you got that 68 number. Note that most of the tombs in the valley are not royal. There is no reason the believe that there are hundreds of others to be found since the valley was used between the dynasties XVIII-XX and most of the pharaoh were identified.
4) Yes, the Valley of the kings is well attested as being founded at the beginning of the New Kingdom, the pyramids were built in the Old and Middle kingdoms. There were internal security systems both in the pyramids and in the valley, but they were different because the structure type is different. The large corridors (which exist only after the end of the XVIII dynasty) are dug this way in order to fit the sarcophagus which gets bigger and bigger with time. In the pyramid you don't need that since it can be added before the completion of the room.
5) the entrances were hidden until Ramses II and all current entrances of the tombs are modern.
6) Not all the royal tombs in the valley have elaborate paintings (see KV 39, 38, 20) the decoration evolved and it really got spectacular after Seti I. Likewise the first pyramids are not inscribed, but there is actual texts in the burial chambers after Unas in the 5th dynasty, the so called "pyramid texts". By the way, the Great pyramid and the Valley of the Kings are around 1000 years apart.
7) Tutankhamon was by no means an important pharaoh. He's so famous because his tomb was found sealed since the bronze age.
8) No one was buried in pyramids after the Middle kingdom (I'm not talking about small pyramid shaped tombs like in the 25th dynasty), for security reasons. In the periods of internal crisis the pyramids became targets.
9) there is a graffiti inscription in the last chamber above the burial chamber in the Great pyramid which was sealed until the XIX century, which bears the name of Kufu.
10) the sarcophagus is bigger then the entrance to the funerary chamber, therefore the only way to insert it into the burial chamber is before it's completion.
11) granite looks better, is more resistant and more expensive, it's a luxury item. Even today people use unnecessary materials for the same reason.
You didn't show any evidence that proves that the pyramids were not build by the ancient Egyptians as tombs (and I am talking about all of them from Djoser till Ahmosis , even though the last one was a cenotaph)
To use your own words, your theory "it's not backed by evidence what so ever, which contradicts what science is all about""
Clark Gable The Egyptians were able to cut granite and move massive blocks of stone, it's a well attested fact. There is no reason to believe that the sarcophagi from Serapeum predate Egyptians, especially since they are inscribed (and there's nothing amateurish about that).
And there are plenty of arguments for them being tombs.
1) the Egyptians told us that they were tombs. You can find the information not only in Egyptian texts, but also at the Greek writhers like Herodotus.
2) they contain a sarcophagus and various sealing mechanisms (usually stone slabs), both of which are used in tombs since the Old Kingdom till much later.
3) pyramids were surrounded by a mortuary complex with temples and secondary tombs
4) the pyramid was used as a funerary symbol a long time after they were no longer built.
5) there were human remains found inside of some pyramids
6) most of them have a simple internal layout (unlike the great one) which ends with a chamber - a very intuitive structure for a tomb, attested not only in Egypt but in the whole world basically
7) the structural evolution can be easily observed from mastaba to step pyramid to failed pyramid and then to perfect shaped pyramid.
8) the custom of including a cone like structure above the grave it’s attested trough the whole ancient world (the pyramid tomb of Qin Shi Huang Di, beehive tombs in the mediteranean world or the tumulus tombs all over Europe)
9) there are scorch marks on some sarcophagi (for instance the one of Amenemhat III). The burning of the inner coffins was a well attested measure used by the grave robbers in order to extract the gold from the mummy.
10) and at last, there are the so called “pyramid texts” that are found inside the burial chamber from the 5th dynasty onwards. They talk about the dead pharaoh and about his journey in the afterlife.
So why do we believe that is the same with Kufu?
1) the Egyptians told us so
2) it has a huge structural similarity with the other pyramids (the layout is more elaborate then usual, but you’ve got the same structural concept, shape, burial chamber, sarcophagus, sealing mechanism etc)
3) the name of the pharaoh is inscribed in the last small chamber above the burial chamber. It was sealed until the XIX century when it was entered by the aid of explosives.
4) it has a surrounding funerary complex with temples, secondary tombs, even secondary satellite pyramids (some of which are no longer standing)
Tombs but not a single bone was found. How epic.
Removed either by tomb robbers long ago or archeologists in more recent times and are now sitting in some storage area..........how facile and superficial is the "logic" of some. Most tombs are not open to the public. Those where bodies were found in modern times still have bodies/bones within them with the tombs are sealed under guard.
Yet many early explorers would remove the bodies/bones and those that survived are now in museums. A few such as Tutankhamen still contain his body in a sealed sarcophagus under a plastic cover for public viewing. Meanwhile the bodies of his children buried with him was stored in a Cairo hospital for decades until the Dept. of Antiquities took control of them and put them in preservation.
Lastly the Egyptians themselves towards the end of the New Kingdom opened multiple tombs and moves the mummies into central caches to try to protect them from tomb robbers. So it is sadly clear you have no clue about what you lament. Better luck next time.
Either stolen or the corpse was put in another tomb

lmao its insane how they actually believe millions of accurately worked stones were formed using "simple hand tools". insane. constructions dont work that way. larger the structure, the construction methods must adapt to a largee scale.
Dragging stones and flipping them at the precise time will form a perfect square.
Agree.
I just want to laugh at and openly mock the idiots in the comments saying "we couldn't build it today". I work in stone masonry and we could build this - better and more accurately - in 5 years, if cost were no option. Laser sight-lines, diamond tip cutting, trucks, cranes, GPS mark-up's and on it goes...the physical construction of a pyramid utilising modern construction technique's is technically and easy job.
Absolutely we could build it today = much quicker and better in fact for the reasons you noted. Cost however is the true limitation given the economics today as you alluded to. Modern union wage scale for a skilled workforce of several hundred craftsmen over a 5 year project life would be in the tens of millions of dollars alone. If you used 300 union craftsmen and paid them 60K a year that would amount to almost 100 million dollars over the life of the project.

The museum in Cairo has a glass case with a statue of kufu, and a little hammer. But some say that tosh (enoch) built the great pyramid. The quarry was 20 miles away. There is no way they cut, loaded, and fault the currents all the way back, and completed this in 20 years.
The quarry at Aswan where they brought the granite from, for the so called kings chamber (and many other monuments etc in and around Giza) was around 677 km away. How they managed that is just mind blowing.

People started to notice random holes around the sphinx and later a vent shaft with a screen over it on one of the hind legs. Exactly where the permits he denied were proposed to excavate.
Then when excessively questioned about the covered shaft, he denied and had the shaft covered up the same night.
There’s things that were found around that complex that we will possibly never know about because of hawass. Simply because it would shatter every stubborn childish theory he ever had.
Now the egyptian government cannot just release that information to the public as it would be too embarrassing to admit that even they were duped by this man child
Naked science, best documentary series ever.
There is a record about the giza pyramids and it says: "it was the gift of the Nile" according to the ancient Egyptians hieroglyphs carved in stone.
Yea, they probably floated the stones up to the top.

They didn't float anything, since they did not build them.
"made in China" on the bottom yeah
@@michaeltrumph121 Ok, if they didn't, then some other humans did. Not humans at all? Then why not conclude that they build themselves? I mean, many people believe that humans and entire universe came to be that way, so why not anything else?

Thank you for debunking yourself in the very first sentence: "Built as gargantuan tombs of shining white limestone..." It is truly an insult to intelligence itself to attribute these colossal structures, the Great Pyramid in particular, to savage barbarians only slightly removed from their primate lineage.
The pyramids were not built by chisels from a bedrock, as is implied in the video of slaves chiselling away the pyramid sides.. Those heavy tough blocks were quarried and transported. And to precisely position those blocks on that height and shape and sophisticated interior needed an engineering technology that relies on something higher than chisels. Isn't it obvious, Mr Hawass?
Wtf would you know about this shit? Stick to collecting starwars figures Larry

Very obvious
Almost hurts to see these magnificent structures crumble as time marches on.
There is an old saying... " Time Fears the Pyramids ".
They arent crumbling anytime soom. At least 10000 years and g9ing strong.

I believe the Egyptians inherited the pyramids. They may have made the mud brick ones. These masterpieces along with the stone bowls and such were heirlooms.
_"I believe........."_ = honestly you could have stopped there.......
Moral: enjoy "your beliefs" if that is your wont. Unfortunately facts remain facts notwithstanding such subjective "musings".
p.s. - perhaps one day you will wake up from your fever dream of "belief" to realize = "you" are not the arbiter of validity here - the experts are. That is why we have experts after all as they are the ones who study all the evidence to determine what is plausible and what is not = whereas you watch some video and make assumptions..... Think about that.
They didnt have the wheel but the pharaohs had charriots
Interesting !!
Pharaohs had chariots long after the pyramids were built. Don’t forget that the Egyptians civilization existed for many 1000s of years, and the pyramids were built early. But, I wouldn’t be surprised if the had early wheels, which we’ve never found evidence of.

Chariots were from greeks.
Thats why u see in the bible they always say chariot of fire blah blah.
History the way its told is bs. .
Those were some smart niggas who built that shit. Very awesome.
"We had chariots but no wheels." Laughed all ancient Egyptians from their graves. C
There are leather remains of what may have been an Old Kingdom chariot, but chariots weren't popular for another thousand years. Try "We had wheels but no roads".
@@SonOfThineHandmaid Actually they didn't. They had the Nile and canals. The flood waters of the Nile reached to the Giza escarpment where a harbor was built just to receive supplies for the projects.
Lol
right, amazing i often could not figure out their claims, the egyptians chased the hebrews toward the red sea in chariots. but no wheels in construction toward building the pyramids ? something is not right here.
@@jodyguilbeaux8225 The story is probably a myth. No pharoah drowned and there's no archaeological evidence for the Exodus. The expulsion of the Hyskos may have inspired it. The Hyskos introduced the war chariot when they invaded Egypt but that was about a thousand years after Khufu's pyramid was built. Wheels would have been useless for hauling heavy loads in soft sand and they didn't yet have metal strong enough for the axles.
Sledges, ropes, barges and canals worked quite well and that's what they used.

You will never convince me that these structures were built using basic tools and dragging rocks over hundreds of miles. I don't care how many slaves were used or how much determination they had. That's just impossible.

Yes, and where is the ruins of the city that would have been needed for building the bent pyramid and the red pyramid. There's nothing. No mention of that absence. But one has to be there right? ...since one exists at Giza. Maybe the one at Giza only involved the construction of the Menkaura pyramid and not the two great ones. It was a huge undertaking...some 350 or so feet high. Maybe it was build ages after the first two, -or before.
@@redwoodcoast under the sand like most of their history 🤔
The Egyptians did not built them !
Have you heard of the man in Japan that specialist in Stone wall construction...not even a credit card can slip through the cracks too...his knowledge might be of help in this documentary
It is really weird that there are no records of how they were built as the Egyptians obviously had the ability for many many years yet the fact that they recorded written records for everything else besides how to build their most sacred tombs is very odd. Why wouldn’t they record it so they ensure they can continue to be built long after they’re gone
You are 100% correct.
