The Great Pyramid
I have been looking at various youtube vids on pyramids...from mainstream to nutter interpretations.
But they must have been a busy lot...with 2.5 million blocks in the great pyramid and a supposed construction period of 20 years that means they quarried, transported and placed blocks at a rate of 13 an hour each and every hour of every day in that 20 years...
Even with a 24 hour a day work force it is hard to imagine how they built it... even if we give them 40 years working 24/7 they would need to lay 6 or 7 an hour...pity we could not get those workers building our roads☺
If they only worked in day light the numbers require near double the block laying rate suggested...
Even with a large work force one wonders how they could all fit on the work site...
Imagine building such today...quarrying 13 blocks an hour, transporting them and setting them in place.
