Exactly. These kind of documentaries produced by major networks like History Channel or Discovery are such trash.

What hieroglyph or papyrus scroll are they reading that edict or diary entry from, exactly? And not only did they not answer the original question about granite as you said, but they even showed how exceedingly impractical it was to cut limestone with steel tools and even admitted that it would be almost impossible within the completely arbitrary timetable.

[@jefft6802]

The Samarian Tablets discussed the Pyramids thousands of years prior to the birth of Kufu. There is an Pyramid agenda to keep the Egyptian narrative going at all costs when in fact, these great pyramids were built approximately 10,000 years earlier, ....LONG before the reign of the Egyptians. The Sphinx has deep water grooves along it's base which strongly supports this time line. This article discusses TRUTH regarding history which is always kept secret because the Elite Cabal possess some of the ancient knowledge unknown to most regarding ancient aliens, free energy (which was produced by the Pyramid), healing, levitation and plasma based energy required for dimentional space travel. Some of all that stuff is disclosed below in the linked article, and some of this material will be further disclosed to us (the masses) later this year when the Central Banking System collapses, the Cabal falls, and many of the ELITE are rounded up for prosecution related to the Covid-19 scandal and Crimes Against Humanity!

Any stone mason or master builder will tell you it is impossible to cut granite or drill holes straight through with the tools that had been around at that time. This was not done by slaves. It was done by an advanced group of people at the peak of their skill. The pyramids were not built to house tombs either as no bodies have ever been recovered inside.

Things to remember: 1 - quarries do not typically cut stone "on demand". Quarries run in continuous operation and thus = they should have partially quarried blocks on hand at any given time. 2 - the Egyptian engineers would have known how much granite was required before the foundation of the pyramid was even laid out. 3 - so the quarry such as Aswan would have had literally years to quarry what granite was needed and transport it to Giza before it would need to be placed in the pyramid. 4 - what granite you see in Old Kingdom pyramids = basic shapes - typically blocks. 5 - so blocks could be obtained from the bedrock via dolerite pounders and fire. More precise cutting could be done using weighted copper saws and an abrasive such as sand or corundum. Polishing would be done via flat blocks and an abrasive. A sarcophagus could be cut using saws to obtain the exterior shape which is then polished smooth. The interior could be removed via chipping out using gneiss stone tools and/or possible copper tube drills to remove cores of stone. The inside would then be polished smooth the same as the exterior. Yes it is time consuming = but they had the time. Work on the sarcophagus which would have taken the longest time to fabricate likely began soon after Khufu assumed the throne - which is when work on a Pharaoh's tomb typically began. It then would have been placed in the King's Chamber before the walls went up much the same as a bathtub is installed in a room when it is wider than the door and the room constructed around it. Next to Khafre's valley temple adjacent the Sphinx was once a deepwater harbor. Merer's diary relates how during the months of the annual Nile flood is when stone from distant quarries would be transported to Giza via a system of canals and dikes they created to channel water to the harbor so as to allow heavily laden ships to access it. So granite and other basalts along with the white Tura limestone casing stones would be shipped in on barges to Giza during this time of high water each year.

The granite at the time it was acquired, was still malleable. Once it was fashioned into position, laid on a dry surface with the sun cooking it in extreme heat, the curing process would have happened within months. As this was happening, more internal stone could be 📐 set, built upon, added upon and smoothed out, as everything they were working with was soft and malleable. It being assembled in much smaller pieces, would have welded together, creating a finished product of great size. Never assume that what you are looking at today, was how it was at it's creation. Take for example a 100 year old wooden house. At the time it was built, the wood contained a lot of moisture and easiest to cut and shape, but today, it's dry as a sun bleached bone 🦴 and very hard to cut and shape. Firewood is another example, being green and full of moisture when cut, but seasoned and it's dry and ready to burn.

[@impro420]

[@Mythographology]

Do the maths add up? Mark Lehner is on record as saying that the pyramid was built in 85 years. If Kufu reigned for 36 years then how did he order the pyramid to be completed by his death? Also, let's look at the maths on a very simplistic level. First, we turn 85 years into minutes: 85 x 365 x 24 x 60 = 44,676,000 (being the number of minutes in 85 years). Then we divide those minutes by the number of stones placed within the structure. Many accept the number to be 2.3 million stones. Let's be generous, let's say 2 million. All we have to do now is divide the number of minutes in 85 years by the number of stones laid and we will get the time in minutes it took to lay the stones. 44,676,000 divided by 2,000,000 = 22.33. What this means is that the Egyptians, working on the model presented in this film, quarried, transported and installed a block of stone, some weighing 7 tons or more, every 22.3 minutes, 24 hours a day for 85 years. The film itself states at 08.05 that experts believe it would have taken the craftsmen half a day just to square the stone off. Half a day excluding the quarrying, transportation and installation. Let's bear in mind two other factors. 1. That we believe the blocks were transported on the Nile and that possibly can only happen when it is in flood. This means that transportation of blocks, which would have to go on day and night if we accept the thesis of this film, probably could not be conducted year-round but only in certain months. 2. These figures concerning the 2 million stones does not include the building of the infrastructure of the pyramid and nor does it include the extensive work done in preparing the foundations. If we accept the thesis of this film then we can start by multiplying the number of stones by 6 hours (half a working day): 2.3 million x 6 = 13,800,000. That is 13,800,000 hours just to shape the blocks by the film's own demonstration. Divide this by 24 gives us the number of days and divide by 365 gives us the number of years. 13,800,000 divide by 24 divide by 365 = 1575. That's one thousand, five hundred and seventy-five years just to shape the blocks. And let us remember that this film production is using steel tools for the task they can only complete in half a day. According to the same experts, the Egyptians only had copper tools which were weaker and much less effective than steel. The final assumption that a technique of rubble infill for the internal structure speeds up the build time cannot possibly be true because that infill is not counted in the 2 million stones used to construct the main architecture. The figures above still apply but you have to try and work out how much extra time they took creating the rubble infill. In that calculation, you also have to take into account that a lot of the internal structure is actually precisely fitted and built. If a degree level student in engineering tried to propose such an idea it is doubtful they would obtain any qualification. The real problem here is whether we can ask if this film represents a woeful lack of scholarship. All we are doing is looking at the numbers and I ask you whether you think they add up? I am not proposing any other theory about the pyramids, I am not suggesting any radical ideas, all I am saying is that if we do the maths then the whole premise of this film has to be questioned severely. But why is it that supposedly intelligent people are running with a theory which is so questionable? More worryingly, what on earth is going on in academia when archaeology faculties cannot question their own established histories and apply critical thinking?

[@Mythographology]

@Rob Arthur Seriously Rob Arthur? Photographic evidence??? What about actually counting them? People have counted them and that's why Egyptologists recognise between 2.3 and 2.5 million stones as being the number in the pyramid. Even Wikipedia states: "The Great Pyramid was built by quarrying an estimated 2.3 million large blocks weighing 6 million tonnes in total." . I have to conclude that you do not know what you are talking about.

[@Mythographology]

@@j.folder8276 Well that is an accolade I probably do not deserve. None of what I have said is original to myself, this is all a well known and well worn critique which is dismissed by archaeology departments around the world as a 'conspiracy theory'. Amazing really! I am a trained historian and do not deal in anything I can't prove or mount credible questions about. Yet I have been told that 'doing the maths' like this is a conspiracy theory. Why? Well I have my own perspective on this but it is little more than speculation. Undermining the received history about Egypt and the pyramids then brings into question a western civilisation model propagated for the last two hundred years in elite western universities. Nobody in the senior common room warming their feet by a log fire whilst sipping a brandy wants that sort of enquiry to stand ground. Better the history we teach than the history that is there in the bricks and mortar!

I have been inside the great pyramid. As a carpenter by trade, I placed my face against the wall and looked up the 45 degree tunnel. The perfection of the smooth, straight rock was amazing. The only word that came out of my mouth was - IMPOSSIBLE.

@@rafttherogue3692 It just really annoys that archaeologists will not hear the voices of engineering and trade professionals because, and this has been quoted to me, "...they are not trained archaeologists and therefore not qualified to talk about such things.". Being dismissed as 'conspiracy theorist' is also insulting. I am a trained and working historian. I was trained to evaluate sources, to grade information, to eschew propaganda and always, always, always to ask questions of my own conclusions.

0:22 One tries to suggest a relatively primitive processing of the contact surfaces of the Giza quarry limestone blocks by drawing with large gaps at the joints. Other drawings show an accuracy of the structure in the range of half a Millimeter. However, CAT drawings such as those made by Gantenbrink show the accuracy of the structure. Some take this picture of the outer walls which was destroyed by two thousands of years, of quarrig work on the site, as an example of the quality of the inner block structure. But if, as in the drawings shown here, there should only be a 5 mm gap between the stones, the number of blocks would result in settlements in the 10 meter range. The outer skin of the Tura limestone casing would have caused by settle movements of the structure crumble and fallen off by itself after a few hundred years.

[@kypatriot3625]

I studied the Great Pyramid extensively in Architecture school. Its widely theorized that in order to prepare the large multi-acre base, it was first partially excavated, down several feet. Then in order to level the whole area equally, a grid of water channels was dug turning the whole base in a giant oversized "tic tac toe" grid. Water was then brought to fill all these intersecting small grids and once filled, a team of workers was responsible for leveling their individual grid to marks made along the channel edges as wet by the water. Once all the grids were leveled individually to these marks, then the grid channels could be backfilled again. This was presented as the best possible choice of a couple of theories. To me it certainly seems plausible given you have a few thousand workers around.

Again you have to have in mind that the Egyptians had many many workers carving those stones. We could possible say they were working almost 24hrs a day. I'm guessing which is why they finished in such a short time.

[@varyolla435]

Yes they employed a large workforce. Egyptologists estimate based upon the infrastructure to house and feed the workers that the Great Pyramid likely employed ~20-30,000 workers. With that said. Most of the blocks are little more than crudely fractured chunks of stone. Very few of the total represent more carefully cut and in some cases polished blocks. So the pyramids are in truth basically "stacked rubble" surrounded by a layer of more carefully cut stone blocks to "make it look neat". As to time. If it takes a single team of say 50 workers 2 hrs to pick up a block from the adjacent quarry about ~100-200 meters away and haul it up the ramp to dump it in place = then 10 teams can transport 10 blocks in about the same amount of time and so forth. In short the more teams working in tandem the more blocks they can place in a given span of time. The larger blocks found in the bottom half of the pyramids of course take longer while the smaller blocks above can be transported more quickly. So depending upon the number of teams you have dictates how many blocks each team needed to move daily. The crude blocks themselves can be quickly obtained via driving a line of chisels a short distance into the limestone bedrock after which the stone will continue to split yielding approximate sized chunks which can be levered onto sleds and hauled away = or what we see.

No mummy or treasure was ever found inside the pyramid.

[@Davivd2]

@Lilnate94 Fletcher Well there is a lot of speculation on if the treasure was ever there to begin with. So we are told that the pyramids are built with such weird corridors (The shafts leading to each of the chambers are at extreme angles and once the pyramids were opened stairs had to be built to ascend and descend the corridors) in order to confuse grave robbers. However the great pyramid was not breached until 820 AD and no treasure or mummy was found inside. The entrance used today is still the one carved into the pyramid from 820 AD because the original opening was not found and opened until modern times. So now we have the mystery of the pyramids. They were built with elaborate shafts to thwart grave robbers, but after the pyramids were finally breached (thousands of years after construction) No treasure was found to be robbed. We are told that because the grave robbing (Which there is no evidence of any entry into the pyramid before 820 AD) was so bad that the treasures and mummies were moved to the valley of the kings. So, the grave robbery was so bad that the pyramids were built in such a way to thwart grave robbers, and the entrance was not breached until modern times, then the measures to ensure that grave robbery did not happen in the valley of the kings were the treasures and mummies were moved to must be extensive. Nope. You just need to find the entrance, dig through the cap stone, and walk right in and loot the place. The valley of the kings has been plundered by grave robbers for centuries. So we are being lead to believe that the pyramids with their anti-theft features were abandoned with no evidence of theft in order to move the treasures and mummies to a less secure area. Oh and the only mummy ever found in what is referred to as the kings chamber was in the step pyramid and that was a later king who wanted to be associated with the kings of the past so he had his remains laid to rest in the pyramid. There is absolutely zero evidence of old kingdom pharaoh's ever being laid to rest in the pyramids.

It's no coincidence that everyone who claims humans made the pyramids are also unfamiliar with all the 30 or so reasons for why we could not have if the version of history we've been taught is correct.

When the great pyramid is supposed to have been built, had the inhabitants of these territories not yet discovered the wheel, but had the capacity to build such a construction? It's hard to believe that some boys with skirts who didn't know anything about the wheel and the only activity was cultivating the land were able to do that. Then another question is how they built the pyramid in 20 years, this means that the 2 million blocks were removed from the quarry, transported, sanded and built, that is, about 200 blocks a day, that is impossible.

Look at the explanation of Dr. Michael Heiser. The pyramids could also be a ziggurat on an earthen mound and a pyramid built on the outside. There are areas of decay that reveals that. Every stone was not precisely cut. There are areas where the medium layers are back filled with rubble.

Let's build a "tomb" the most impractical way ever

[@johnassal5838]

That's religion for ya. Most other "theories" like electric generators or water pumps are just bonkers. It's interesting how little we really know since most accepted facts are based wholly or largely on a patchwork of clues left by a culture we know had a habit of taking credit for things done by their rivals and forebears. If we don't start with the assumption that nobody could've been building structures much closer to the end of the last glacial period 12,000 years ago or before then the lower courses of granite facing blocks on several pyramids might suggest they were originally the walls of very large mastabas built by a culture that had iron tools before collapsing probably due to catastrophic climate change 10,000 to 12,0000 years ago only for the people of dynastic Egypt, perhaps their actual descendants, to co-opt and try to upstage the works that were already there. If you look at some cutaway concepts of how the internal bulk of the pyramids is possibly arranged they often look like stepped mastabas of two or three large levels with more material slapped on to make a true pyramid. Not to mention even the ancient Egyptians left very few depictions of the pyramids and the ones they left are oddly inaccurate showing thinner spikes like fat obelisk looking things which might just be what roof and walls of the kings chamber was originally holding up. Who can say.

[@keithammleter3824]

Why do they think stone blocks have to be entirely cut by chopping with chisels? Near where I used to live is an old granite quarry, last mined commercially about 90 years ago, but mined in small amounts up to about 50 years ago. The method was to drill small holes about 6-8 mm diameter about 60 mm deep along a line where they wanted it to crack. Then they plugged the holes with some kind of dry wood, and poured water over it. Then overnight the wood expanded and the granite split along the line of holes. And granite is a heck of a lot stronger and harder than the limestone used in the pyramids. When I was a teenager, I decided to try the method of splitting the granite. Worked like charm.

[@ms-wl8hr]

What a kind of tool did they used to drill the holes? I guess iron drill probably hardened steel. 5000 years ago they didnt have any steel at all. And as you mention, granite is much harder then limestone, but in Pyramids are a lot of granit blocks or tumbes.

[@keithammleter3824]

@@ms-wl8hr : They used what was called a "star drill". A star drill is basically a hardened steel chisel. You put it in the hole, or where you want to start the hole, and hit it hard with a "gimpy" - a small sledge hammer used in one hand. Then you rotate the drill/chisel 10 degrees or so, and hit it again; rotate and hit, rotate and hit, keep at it until the hole is as deep as needed. It's not a form of cutting like a twist drill, it works by producing a lot of surface micro fractures, converting the stone into dust. Frequently you need to blow the granite dust out of the hole (eg with a straw). Every now and then you need to grind a new edge on the drill, as both the rock and the drill edge get worn down. You need very good muscles and stamina - it's very hard work, and progress slow, of the order of one tenth as fast as a modern carbide masonry drill. That it was hard work was very apparent when I tried it. But I would certainly think that the quarry workers, and the ancient Egyptian slaves, all had MUCH better muscles and stamina than 14-year-old scrawny me. Only a small fraction of the pyramids in Egypt was granite. Most of the material used was much much softer limestone. The Egyptians used bronze tools that were nearly as good as steel, as far as productivity per man was concerned. In fact, one of the reasons why it took the world so long to develop hardenable steel was that bronze tools were actually quite good. If the Egyptians used star drills on pyramid work, they would have employed full time tool makers and edge grinders, each serving multiple hit-and-rotate crews. Without modern hard steel, they would have needed quite a bit more grinding, and a fair bit more hitting, but as far as the total number of slaves needed, it wouldn't be that different.

[@ms-wl8hr]

Thanks for explanation

[@Orangebery]

There are drill marks found in granite blocks in quarry sites in Egypt however when geologists and engineers measure the striations it's consistent with a constant speed drill bit. Not to mention they're quite wide holes left behind too
