The article gives a general hypothesis on how the Pyramid of Cheops was built. How the work on this hypothesis contributed to the discovery of the origin of the famous ancient Egyptian Djed pillar and what are the sarcophagi from Saqqara.
Are you in school now? If you know how it's built, write how? ha haI thought that everyone knew that the way they were constructed has been found. About 10 years ago, or so. Are you in school now? We actually know how they were built. It is no longer a mystery.

It's just his proposal. There is no evidence. He made a big publicity and that's it.
Whoever wants to explain the construction of the pyramids should first try to move only a 200kg block in person. It must be perfectly level or on rollers.It's the only narrative that explains the exterior as well as the interior scars of construction. It's the best explanation until someone can beat it. A new theory which explains what the present theory can not, is considered the superior theory. There is nothing left to explain with this narrative. It requires no magic to explain construction, just the talented use of what was available. A true feat of sober engineering.
Of course many long time mysteries, have to include lost technology, aliens or super natural powers for explanation to satisfy this star trek/wars generation. May the force be with you.
I've seen the video already, but thank you. Djed pillar as a lift - it will be a sensation, I'm sure.I saw a old, frail 100 lb. retired man, from eastern Europe, using a pebble and a lever, dance with blocks the size. It's been filmed and documented many times. I think we have lost more knowledge than we have gained.
I could not fine that film, it's from the 50s or 60s. But here is something similar. That old man was much more skilled.

Search for moving blocks by hand....on youtube for more examples.
Trying the same thing over and over and getting the same result, is not insane.....it's our saving survival skill. All progress comes from it. Failure is the only success we truly have.
