4.0 out of 5 stars
Finally, someone stops repeating "2.3 million blocks",
By Tim Hunkler (Arizona) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Back in Time 3104 B.C. to the Great Pyramid: Egyptians Broke Their Backs to Build It : How the Great Pyramid Was Really Built (Hardcover)
An excellent book dealing with all aspects of the various theories of pyramid construction, preparation of the site, quarrying and shipping of stones, etc. The author performs many calculations to determine the number of stones used, weights, number of men needed to lift, number of hauling ropes, stresses and friction coefficients, etc. Also as a bonus there is the complete list of Kings of Egypt in hieroglyphics as well as a beginner's guide to hieroglyphics!
