The pyramids are considered one of the seven signs of the world, as millions of tourists from all over the world stand in front of them and are fascinated by their distinctive shape and height that makes them the best wonders of the world, but it still represents a great mystery to scientists,As one of the most mysterious and largest of the Seven Wonders of the World, the construction of the pyramids is one of the oldest unsolved mysteries in history despite attempts to solve it over and over again. Many scientists and scholars have been asked and asked the same question about how the pyramids were built.

The three pyramids of Giza are considered one of the greatest pieces of human engineering and architecture, and these monuments are still strong after more than 4,500 years and are still an unsolved mystery to this day. The pyramids are also considered one of the most important tourist areas in the world,Which many tourists come to visit from all over the world to discover the beauty of those pyramids, and the greatness of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs in the construction of this distinguished building.

The pyramids were built during the period from 2630 BC to 1530 BC, which is the first of the three major eras in the history of ancient Egypt, where archaeologists believe that the fourth dynasty that existed from (2613 to 2493 BC) was called the "golden age" of the ancient kingdom because of the size and quality The pyramids that were built during this time in Giza.

How to build the pyramids: The general theory is based on the belief that the huge stones were carved from quarries using copper chisels, and then these blocks were pulled and lifted in place,However, the method regarding the movement of these stones and their placement is highly disputed, it is believed that the pyramids were constructed using slave labour, and another theory suggests that the pyramids were built by tens of thousands of free skilled workers who worked for wages.

The stages of building the pyramids: The first stage is to choose the ideal construction site, as it should have been on the western side of the Nile where the sun sets,Bearing in mind that the ancient Egyptians believed that wherever the sun goes down that is the gateway to the afterlife, the pyramids also need to be on higher ground away from the danger of floods which is the time of the Nile flood,However it could not be too far from the bank of the Nile because the river would be used to transport blocks of high quality limestone for the exoskeleton on the other side of the Nile.

Phase II Site preparation: No plans were ever found to build the pyramids, but the construction of the pyramids was not random and the measurements used were fairly accurate,The workers first had to prepare a solid foundation by removing loose sand from the rocks and then had to make the bedrock completely flat. The workers may have done this by building low mud walls all around the base.

The third stage of lifting the blocks: The exact method of lifting the pyramids is not yet known, and pulleys were not invented until the Roman era. However, the Greek historian “Herodotus” said about the use of cranes to lift the blocks from one level to another, and the stones used in building the pyramids were not small bricks, but differed The stones in the pyramid are by far the largest, however the largest can be found in the King's Chamber.
