Egypt pyramids: Scientists may have solved mystery behind construction
Scientists say the ancient wonders are likely to have been built along a now-dried up branch of the River Nile.
Believe it or not, no aliens were likely involved! Just some very smart humans and a massive amount of labor.
Scientists may have solved the mystery behind transporting some of the materials to the pyramid site: a dried-up a river
Fixed the title for you.
The construction of the Giza pyramids is still baffling. Some of the stones are purported to weigh 80 tons. That's four or five times more weight than what modern trucks can pull on paved roads.
It's not so farfetched to presume that this ancient civilization employed technology that is lost to time. I'm not talking about aliens and laser beams, but good ol' fashioned mathematics. They could have exploited a principle of leverage and incline that we simply don't understand or recognize. Or perhaps something entirely different from our six simple machines...
The problem with this theory, of course, is that we like to believe that humanity is always progressing and that we are superior to our forebears by default. That is ultimately a subjective opinion.
I'm really curious when and how quickly the route changed.
The hell? No JS and you see nothing. Allow JS and you get a weird overlay covering half of the screen, grey text and some kind of block selector(?) on mobile dark mode.
