Pyramids of Giza
One of the great wonders of the world is the Great Pyramids at Giza. They were many of thousands of year ago, before Christ was born. How in the world did the Egyptians build such a building? Their technology wasn't as advanced as are our today in the 20th century. They didn't have mechanical devices such as craters, or even cars. All they had were their hands, and maybe a wheel of some sort. Robert, an architect tried to build a scale model of one the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Khufu pyramid. Robert thought of all the possible ways the Egyptians used to build this pyramid with out modern technology. Probably one of the most difficult ways of building the pyramid was getting the rocks, weighing over 100 tons, over to the sight where the pyramid was to be built, from a quarry. Robert used something like a wheel to transport the rocks, weighing only about 1 ton from a quarry near the sight of the
Robert had pretty good ideas on this construction of a scale model of one of the Great Pyramids of Giza. It took Robert and his crew a lot of effort even building a smaller version, thinks how difficult it would have been for the Egyptians. The men working in the sun day after day building a pyramid for their pharaoh, some people probably spent their whole lives devoting their time and effort building a pyramid for their pharaoh. Another problem Robert faced when constructing this scale model of the Pyramid of Khufu was getting the rocks to be placed properly on top of one other. When they had the first layer down, the next idea was to place the next layer of rocks. Imagine now lifting a 1-ton rock about 10 feet high. Robert used the idea that the Egyptians might have used a ramp to push or pull the rocks up to where the next level would be. Though, constructing this ramp may take more time to
