Top 5 hidden facts about giza pyramid

Top 5 hidden facts about the Giza pyramid

When talking about pyramids, suddenly reminds us of the "Great Pyramid of Giza". But there are so many pyramids located in Egypt. But mainly we talk about the Great Pyramid of Giza.

We all know common information about the Egyptian Pyramid Complex. Who was build that, when built that, and what is the purpose of building pyramids. This is the information told by researchers and archaeologists. Still, I have questioned whether this information is 100% correct or if sometimes people misunderstood the facts. Today I am trying to say what we knew about pyramids and what is the truth about that facts.

 

1. The pyramids were built by pharaoh kings.

This is the story still we can get from archaeologists, Websites, and most probably school students. But there is no direct evidence for that. At least no papyrus texts about these are the kings who made pyramids, and we know archaeologists found so many mummies in Egypt site. 

Recent times found 100 mummies outside the pyramids. Still do not find like Khufu kings.

So we need to clear that. Archaeologists say they "believe" pyramids were made by pharaoh kings. But so many people say very surely pyramids were made by pharaoh kings. We did not know how much longer the pharaoh's royal dynasty was.

 

2. The pyramids are designed to bury the royal mummies and afterlife commemoration.

This is another huge mistake in understanding people. The archaeologists say they "believe" the pyramids are designed to bury the mummies. No one could find any mummy or skeleton during the excavation inside the pyramid. But explorers found there were some huge stone boxes inside the pyramid. So, finally, this is the only reason to say the pyramids are designed to bury mommies.

Another big purpose of pyramids is made for spiritual things. The Egyptians believed they will have an afterlife concept and the god Ra.

There are so many gods in Egypt. Just like Ra, Horus. The Ra is the god of the sun. They worshiped him. Some researchers say ancient Egyptians made pyramids for the commemoration of Ra, and they believed in the life concept. But we can't imagine what did they do for that kind of reason.  Because anyone knows how much harder than any other to build such a huge thing. 

 

3. The pyramids are about 5,000 years old.

How to say that? 

Some researchers found woods, Papyrus, Ashes, and foods inside the pyramid. These are the main things to guess the age of the pyramids. So they did a carbon dating test, and they found these archaeology relics are about around 5,000 years old. But they have not certified still, actually how old are the pyramids. This indicates only the age of the material in question and does not indicate the age of the pyramid.

 

4. If the existence of any Intelligence and development in the past, why were they used always stones in all pyramids.

The simple answer is intelligence and development. Just you all time about distance past. How they show their pyramid's longevity to us. They need some hard materials, and they need to find easily those things. So stones are the best option for them.

But today we use concrete and iron for so many creatures. But I do not think we can hold these creatures for thousands of years without maintenance. Most probably all things will befall the first millennium.

 

5. The Great Pyramid was made using a hundred thousand slaves within twenty years.

What is the reason for the spread of that kind of fact?

Because Herodotus said  The Egypt Pyramids were made by a hundred thousand "humans" and they had a shift system to work. Exactly, we can accept that statement. But so many peoples are doubtful about humans and slaves. There is no evidence of the existence of slaves in Egypt. Later, the word people was replaced by the word slave. Archaeologists did some excavations of the cemetery and the restaurant of workers. They found skeletons and food. So the workers ate grapes. We can not imagine slaves can eat grapes.

Another thing is some skeletons have cured marks. They have been in accidents during their working time. But they have been lived after cure. 

So very clear about that. These workers were not slaves, they are the original local people from Egypt.

The next thing it could, they build a pyramid within two decades. We can not imagine it even today. Most researchers say at least today we can not build such a big pyramid. We have super Computers, Technologies, and Machines, but we can not make it. So many archaeologists say the pyramids build by about 30,000 people with different knowledge than what we know today.
