When most people think ancient Egypt the one image that comes to mind is the Pyramid of Giza. More millennia there has been some controversies or mysteries surround the pyramid. Some people point out that it was impossible for people to build the Pyramid of Giza. People who believe that it was built by and only by humans say that the ancient Egyptians used rocks or logs to push the stones up the pyramid, but if that is the case then they ancient Egyptians would have to use more rocks or logs then actual blocks of stone to build the pyramid. Here are some things to point out about the pyramid:
-It is so perfect that we wouldn’t be able to duplicate it even with the technology that we have now.
-It is made of stones where each stone weighs from 1 - 20 tons.
-The great pyramid consists of 100,000 stones.
-It is 481 feet tall
-The base of the pyramid forms a nearly perfect square (maybe about 2 centimeters off)
-It took 10,000 people per month to build the pyramid in a span of 22 years.
If you do all the logistics of the building of the pyramid in 22 years one stone would have to be laid down every 9 seconds to build the Pyramid of Giza. If they were to use 10,000 people a month over 22 years they should have used 2,640,000 million people barring that my math isn't wrong. That is a staggering number considering that there are about 4,247,694 people born each year in the US. The Egyptians would have used more than half the people born in one year in the US to build one pyramid. Some of the best architects today say that it would be nearly impossible to build that even with the most current technology. If it is that difficult today then how would the ancient Egyptians be able to build the pyramid? Some conspiracy theorists say that the Egyptians had help from other worldly beings because they believe that aliens aided us in building the pyramid. Here are some interesting facts about the pyramids that make the possibility of aliens helping more relevant:
The perimeter of the pyramid divided by two times the height would equal to pi (3.1416…) up to the fifteenth digit.
-The 3 pyramids of Giza are exactly aligned with the stars of the Orion's belt.
-The height of the pyramid (481 ft.) is 1/1,000,000,000 of the distance of Earth from the sun.
-The pyramid is lined up exactly with the magnetic north pole.
-The pyramid lies 31 degrees north and 31 degrees west, longitude and latitude.
Given those numbers and a fact to consider is that most of the major math formulas weren't created until the first millennia AD and the pyramid was built around 2584 BC it seems almost impossible to get those type of numbers. Even people today couldn't build a pyramid and get those types of numbers. One has to think, was it just the Egyptians building it that day or were they receiving help from above.
