How the pyramids were built
About 138 pyramids have been found in Egypt. The largest pyramid is the Pyramid of Khufu on the Giza Plateau. It was built about 4700 years ago. It is equal about the size of 6 football field and is about the same height as a 42 stories building.
Build of mystery of pyramids
This pyramid is made up of about 2 million stone blocks. Each block weighs about 2.5 to 50 tons. The outer walls of the pyramid were made of limestone blocks and the inner walls were made of granite blocks. It has three chambers inside. The mummy is in the central chamber. To enter the central chamber one has to go up a staircase of about one hundred and a half feet.
These stone blocks had to be brought in from outside; The idea is from about 500 miles away. But there is no end to the wonders of how these were brought into the desert. Currently, the world's largest crane can lift a maximum weight of 10 tons above 50 to 100 meters.
But how the stone blocks of so much weight were lifted up at that time is also amazing. The way the stone blocks were cut and attached to each other was perfect; The current engineering art-technique also rates. The stones are cut in the same way as they were cut then.
How to make a mummy:
By accumulating long experience, the ancient Egyptians came up with specific rules for making mummies. The mummy making process was completed in a few steps. At first, the brain was removed by piercing the nose of the dead person. In this case the help of iron was taken. Then the left side of the abdomen of the corpse was cut off and the intestines inside were removed. Then various digestive organs of the body like lungs, kidneys, stomach were taken out.
After removing these, the stomach was sewn again. They were very careful. There was a risk of rotting the dead body if air got inside the stomach. Then the carcasses and limbs were dried with salt. When all was well dried, the gamla was left with the substance of the Gain tree and a variety of spices.
After 40 days, it was wrapped in linen cloth. Then they would conserved the mummies. But scientists still have not been able to solve the mummy mystery. How the mummy survived the process is still unknown to scientists.
One of the most important places for researchers today is the pyramid. Many treasures are hidden in the pyramids. The Europeans have made many attempts to recover these hidden treasures but have almost failed. Because the thieves have already looted all the treasures from these pyramids.
