Mystery of Ancient Pyramids | How were they really built?The Great Pyramid of Giza remains the tallest structure in the world for
over 4,000 years. Built around 2,500 BC, it is said to weigh 6 million
tonnes. The pyramids are designed to hide the dark secrets of the dead.
Back then people didn't have cranes, bulldozers or modern technology.
Even so, they built a monument that still stands. There are said to be a
total of 118 pyramids of varying shapes and sizes. Many of them have been
eroded by the weathering and very few are in good condition. The Great
Pyramid of Giza is one of the most well-preserved. The Pharaohs are
buried inside the pyramids to prepare for the afterlife. Conspiracy
theories are often so bizarre that they make no logical sense. If light
bulbs did exist in ancient Egypt, why have we not found any evidence
proving it ? Another popular theory claims that the pyramid was a granary
to store the crops. Ben Carson said the pyramids were built by Jesus
Christ ’s father.

rafts that floated on the river to move stones from quarries. And once
the stones were at the Pyramids, they were stacked on top of each other
using sledges over wet ground. This is an interesting theory discovered
recently in a study in 2014. The basis of this theory is a painting found
at the tomb of Djehutihotep. It was suggested that they might have used
levers to stack stones on top of each other. Scholars believe that a
similar system existed in Egypt for millenniums. But the inconsistency
arises in the form of construction time. We know that the Pyramid was
completed within 20 years. If 20,000 people transported each stone like
this, a stone needs to be placed every 3 minutes.
In 1989, Robert Bauval came up with the Orion Correlation Theory. He
claimed that the three pyramids in Giza were aligned similarly to the
three stars of the Orion 's Belt. He believed that the alignment was
intentional. And that the ancient Egyptians knew Astronomy. That they
would track the stars at night and study them. And accordingly, they
harvested various crops at certain times. Historians believe this to be a
Fringe Theory.
