How Did The Ramps Build A Solid Stone Pyramid

The pyramids of Egypt were considered to be one of the great mysteries of the world because there is no record on how they built them and the time in which they were constructed. There are several theories as to how they were made (some more believable than others). But since the Egyptians didn’t have access to the wheel it’s an even bigger mystery. Since they didn’t have wheels there must have been some other way that they used to move the blocks. They used ramps build on the side of the pyramids to make slaves pull the huge bock up. Now there are several theories on the ramps, some people say they were going around the side, that there were big long ramps going only on one side, or that there are ramps inside. All are very plausible theories but the idea is that they pulled giant bricks up ramps and put them in the shape of a pyramid. While they were building these pyramids there not just one solid stone pyramid. They have passage ways and traps and dead ends because, they are tombs for the pharos who had them built so, they had all of the Pharaoh’s belongings inside them and they didn’t want anyone stealing them.

So they used slaves to haul a large machine with the block on top of it. They would then sprinkle water on the sand to move the machine so that the sand would not pile in front of it. The weight of the brick them self is enough to hold them together so they didn’t need any kind of cement or anything to hold it together. The Egyptians made the blocks out of lime stone which they got from across the river of the pyramids. They used diorite powder balls and expanding timber powder. After they roughed out the shape they made cavities in the rock wedges of wood are made inside the lime stone and bathed in water so that the wood expands and brakes away the
