 How were pyramids built?


  The huge stones wont to build the pyramids, were carved many miles faraway from the particular site. According to an ancient painting, Egyptians may need used sledges to move the stones.

  Now, pulling sledges on sand would be difficult, because the sand would clump ahead of the sledge, increasing friction and requiring more force to tug it. However, the intelligent Egyptians had a solution.

  In the painting, we will see someone pouring water on sand. Adding correct quantity of water to sand reduces friction, requiring only half the people to tug it.

  Also, cranes hadn't been invented yet. Thus, Egyptians built huge ramps to stack the stones on top of every other, creating this architectural masterpiece.

  This was how pyramids were built.
