Its a tomb that was built in 20 years by some guy? Its not ancient aliens, but i have a feeling that the pyramid had a use, not just as some big building. Don’t have to agree, but keep an open mind when looking at it
The great pyramid is “assumed” to have had a mummy by people in like 900ad no mummies, just more mysteries. Why is the only mummies we find in the three pyramids from a woman, and a man from 2000 years after they were built? The evidence for the royal tomb hypothesis is surpisingly thin. If you think about what we actually see when we look at the pyramids, they are feats of engineering on the scales of which were not seen again until the 1800s. It is insane to me that we think we have any idea how or why the pyramids came to be based on the very minimal amount of evidence we do have on their construction. Not to mention the mysteries of some of the design choices i.e. menkaure casing stones
This one says 27 years, and gangs of 100k labourers. 2.3 million blocks, totalling 6 million tonnes. 5.5 million tonnes of limestone, 8k tonnes of granite, and 500k tonnes of mortar.
By this, density of some local limestone is between 2250kg/m and 2700kg/m, a tonnes is 1000kg. This is a difficult size to manage, but with log rollers, and 100k workers, 27 years is absolutely doable.
Plus, they lived in a desert where there wasn’t much in terms of entertainment. It seems like an unbelievable amount of work for us as we have free distractions all over
Back then? The fuck else were you gonna do? Drink all day? Gamble? Both of which require money?

This shit.
Well, honestly i have no idea, just seems crazy for everyone to be like “we know what it was used for because some guy in the 1800s said so”
Or maybe the mummified remains that were found inside might have been an good indication?

I’ll agree on the why. But the how isn’t really a mystery.
Placing about one block every 3 minutes is easy to explain?
From the article you linked.
None of the things you linked say anything about the time frame for construction.

If you open your mind too much, your brain will fall out.
Thanks for this :)
