Pyramids in Egypt are among the mysteries of most unresolved mysteries in the world. For centuries, scientists and researchers have tried to understand how and exactly when the pyramids were constructed. Many on the pyramids have come to light, archaeologists make new discoveries almost every day, but the fact is that much more about these wonders are wrapped in mystery.
Here are some incredible discoveries that scientists and archaeologists have done over the years Gize pyramids.
20 years, 20,000 people
The Great Pyramid, the credit for construction that goes to Pharaoh Khufu and is considered built around 2550 AV. J.-C. has long been the most important construction in the world. If the history should be believed, the Egyptians only used wood and strings to build the pyramids.
But does it even be possible? This is the question that scientists have tried to respond during the ages. If we think everything has been done by manual work, the calculations say that 20,000 workers and 2o years to build the Great Pyramid.
No roulette involved?
Some researchers think that granite tells that the pyramids are built with were transported and dragged 5,000 miles without wheels. The blocks came via the Nile and weighed 2.5 to 15 tonnes. To give you an idea of what is, a normal car weighs about 2 tons. So, how did these people dragle with stones weighing more than a car for 5,000 miles!? At the moment the Egyptians discovered the presence of the wheel, the pyramids have long been constructed. In addition, they used no steel or iron.
Shiny as a diamond
You would be surprised to know that the great pyramid did not have the dusty look, as if it makes sand from the desert, it is supposed to be in the heart of the pyramid.
Back in the day, the outside of the pyramid was covered with polished shiny limestone that made it twinkle. This limestone was given cuts to make it appear flat under the sunlight.
How did it come like that today? It is said that there was a massive earthquake in 1303 ad that caused stones outside to loosen and crack; These have finally been reused to manufacture fortresses and mosques leaving the sand core of the exposed pyramid.
Eight sides - not four
From the pattern, it seems that the great pyramid like each other pyramid has four sides, but that's not true. The aerial view of the large pyramid of Gize shows that it has 8 sides as can be seen on the photo so observed carefully. Some researchers think this has been done to prevent the stones of change.
Then there are others who believe that the eight sides have been created because of erosion and that the planned parts were actually 4. It is difficult to believe this theory as the indentation on each side is precise, The wind eroding the pyramid with such precision?
The location
In 1877, Dr. Joseph Seisss made a discovery of commitment. He made calculations and, according to them, the great pyramid of Gize lies when the extended lines of latitude and longitude intersect. In simple words, it is located in the center of end of the earth.
Do the Egyptians knew? But how could they? But could they? This is another unresolved mystery with respect to pyramids and Egyptians.
The Egyptians had electricity?
History would have thought we would believe that the Egyptians were a primitive society and the pyramids were constructed as an inhumation space for kings and pharaohs. But the enigma is how a primitive society could have built these structures and these rooms inside with simple wood tools?
Therefore, the conclusion of torsion of the Spirit is that the Egyptians may not be as primitive as we think. Some scholars went so far as to offer that they had electricity, that too wireless! Some old sculptures show that the Egyptians hold torches.
