Have you ever wondered how the pyramids were built? The events surrounding the construction of the pyramids is most likely a unique event in history that would be difficult to reproduce. There are no supporting documents detailing construction methods but certain discoveries near the labourer's necropolis may give us a clue. I apologise for the amateur quality video, but watch the video and judge for yourself... Don't forget, this is only a theory, so I welcome all other suggestions!

  • RE: Wooden sides, wooden tracks, log rollers, wooden sleds etc.....

    The great pyramid would have required one block to be set in place every minute, 24 hours a day, non stop for 20 years. That's a LOT of wood.

    The only trees around are palm trees which are also needed for everyday things like food, cooking heating, building, boats etc. (especially if there is also a 'city for the builders')

    Palm trees also make rubbish building materials (relative to most trees). And they grow very slowly.

  • @theawecabinet seems unbelievable but they achieved it. They did it somehow, and we'll never know for sure. The Egyptians were masters in using their physical environments as tools to their advantage, such as the laws of gravity. Some theorists say that they even harnessed the power of electricity with the use a granite as a conductor, but the discovery of the pinion pulley (as shown in the video) would be a reasonable possibility as ONE of the methods used to move these large blocks.

  • YOU ALWAYS HEAR "THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE WHEEL BACK THEN" BUT THEIR CHARRIOTS HAD WHEELS ON THEM RIGHT ?

  • @HEARTHEANGELSVOICES who knows you may be right, but look at it this way, the Sumerians have many artifacts depicting the use of the wheel, before the pyramids were built (so they say) but 2000 years later they had to re-invent the wheel in a country just a few borders away? Doesn't make sense...

  • Google four lobe pinion pulley

  • @titaniumtube That's good info, I'm confused as to why this information isn't taken seriously by historians.

    But the evidence suggests pyramids pre date the Egyptians. The obvious precipitation erosion on the sphinx and surrounding enclosure could not have occurred lass than 10,000 years ago.

    It makes sense to built the complex on the banks of the Nile which DID used to be there but has since migrated 8 miles to the east over a LONG period of time. Plus the whole complex mirrors Orion/M Way/ Leo as they were 12,500 ago.

    Also no hieroglyphics inside pyramids. And they were NOT tombs!

  • The Egyptians didn’t build the Pyramids Chuck Norris did !!!
