Pyramids were not built by slaves? Experts: the construction of the pyramids is very high treatment

The Egyptian pyramids are not only the pride and representative of the Egyptian people but also an insurmountable wonder in the minds of people all over the world. As archaeologists dig deeper and deeper, the story of the pyramids and the ancient Egyptian pharaohs is becoming clearer and clearer. Although there are still many mysteries about the pyramids that are difficult to solve, it is expected that the truth will be revealed in the future.

In ancient Egypt during the reign of the pharaohs, the pharaohs began to build their tombs when they ascended the throne, and the pyramids were their tombs. Back in later times when people first explored the pyramids, they were curious about who built them and what methods were used to build them. That era can not have the current machine, can only be built by a large number of humans bit by bit. Not only that, each piece of masonry on the pyramid is carefully calculated, of which 2.5 tons of stone and at least 3 million are needed to build the pyramid.

Legend has it that the pyramid of Khufu took thirty years and hundreds of thousands of people to build, so laborious construction, but every pharaoh would have done it. Because in the mind of ancient Egyptians, death is not the end of life, but becoming a god and going to a more beautiful place to live. And if the dead pharaoh's remains were preserved intact, it would allow the pharaoh to return to earth and continue to use his body. So when the pharaoh died, special craftsmen would start to prepare the materials and start to make a mummy for the pharaoh's body, and then put it into the coffin after the mummy was made, and use a kind of carrier called "sun boat" to send the body to the pyramids.

So from the construction of the pyramids to the pharaoh's remains to make mummies, it can be said that each step is rigorous supervision of the production, even today, the construction of the pyramids is not an easy task, let alone thousands of years ago in the Sahara desert to survive the ancient Egyptian people. Ben is in the desert region, survival is extremely difficult, no vegetation cover, and water can not get enough to ensure. And only a Nile River to solve the water problem, local crops, and food are also very limited. Then so much trouble to build the pyramids, is it only as a pharaoh's mausoleum?

In Egyptian legend, the living life in the human world, and after death will go to a place called the underworld. So "death" for the ancient Egyptian people is not the end, but a new continuation. It is said that a long time ago before the construction of the pyramids, Pharaoh died and other common nobles were buried in the ground, but the ancient Egyptians, according to myths and legends, that Pharaoh should not be buried in the ground after death, to let his soul to the sky, so like the ancient Babylonians built the Tower of Babel, people built huge pyramids, hoping that Pharaoh can go to the sky to enjoy the blessings more quickly. There is no lack of buildings like pyramids in the world, such as the Mayan civilization in the rainforests of America, also have pyramids, but the Mayan pyramids are square at the top as well as the bottom, while the Egyptian pyramids are a standard triangular prism with a pointed top.

Legend has it that this construction is also because of the ancient Egyptian mythology of the sun god "Ra", ancient Egyptians believe that "Ra" radiated light radiant. As we know, light is radiating and is infinitely magnified by a single point. The pyramid uses the triangular prism is exactly imitate the characteristics of light, from the west side of the pyramid, the entire cross-section of the pyramid is like a "pulling" into the Egyptian earth to spread light as well.

What is more shocking and puzzling to scholars is the Pyramid of Khufu, which is the tallest and largest of all the pyramids, surrounded by two other relatively much smaller pyramids, in order of size are his son and grandson. It has been found that by multiplying the height of the pyramid of Khufu by a billion, the distance between the earth and the sun is obtained, and by multiplying the circumference of the base of the pyramid of Khufu by 2, the circumference can be obtained, is this a coincidence? Or was it that the ancient Egyptian people were already skilled in these astronomical numbers at that time during the reign of Khufu? But there is not yet a definitive answer.

Among all the mysteries of the pyramids, people are most eager to know how the pyramids were built and who built them. Someone has done a test, inserted a sharp blade into the outer wall of the pyramid, and found that it can not be inserted, even though we usually use paper made of business cards is difficult to pass through the gaps in the outer wall of the pyramid stuff. So some people think that this is an alien to help the ancient Egyptians, with their advanced technology and tools to carry and build the pyramids, or how can make the pyramids fine to even a small card can not be inserted.

According to legend, there was a pharaoh called Tutankhamun in ancient Egypt, although he did not do anything great and died a violent death at the age of 19. But this pharaoh is almost a household name in the West and is one of the most famous of all the pharaohs, the reason is that his pyramid has not been destroyed by tomb robbers for more than three thousand years, many people say that there is a "curse of Tutankhamun", so we do not dare to steal.

It is said that the pyramids of Tutankhamun are inscribed with a string of words so far not translated, and during the initial entry into the pyramids of Tutankhamun members of the expedition died violently without exception, so everyone is afraid, which led to the pyramids of Tutankhamun became the only one in the ancient Egyptian period was not destroyed by tomb robbers pyramids. And about the curse, people naturally think of aliens, if it is aliens in the pyramids of Tutankhamun placed an ancient mysterious disease D, contact with the people will immediately die a violent death, then it all makes sense, but there is still no scientific basis.

Some people jump in and say that they can't just attribute everything to aliens because of their ignorance. It is important to know that ancient Egypt was a slave society, so the pyramids were likely built by slaves, and driving slaves to build pyramids was very common in those times. There were regulations in ancient Babylon, if a citizen and another citizen dispute, to "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth", if a slave is killed, only need to pay a few dollars in fines, without the slightest punishment.

Haruki Murakami also said that the so-called civilization is the slavery period of ancient Greece and Rome, with citizens and aristocrats sunbathing in the study of philosophy and mathematics, while the slaves are responsible for doing all the dirty work, and the slightest mistake or the master is not in a good mood, may incur the disaster of death. This shows how poor the slaves were during slavery. Is it possible that the pyramids were built by slaves?

In recent years, archaeologists have made a discovery, they excavated a series of settlement groups of varying sizes near the pyramids, basically confirming that this is where the people who built the pyramids lived at the time. Do some people say this is not normal? If you live very far from the pyramids, just getting to the pyramids will take a lot of time and effort, but there is time to build the pyramids. But archaeologists feel that it may not have been built by slaves, because the found settlement group, excavated a large number of cattle bones and sheep bones, but also in the pyramid around the excavation of the tombs of these artisans. According to the experts, these artisans were given 50 to 60 cows and sheep as food every day, a treatment comparable to that of the pharaohs in the middle of the desert where food was scarce. Not only that, these artisans are not free to work for the pharaoh, in addition to food, but also can get a good salary, and after death was allowed to be buried at the foot of the pyramid, followed by the pharaoh's "light" together with the soul of the ascension. Pyramids were not built by slaves? Experts say: that the construction of the pyramids is very high treatment.

Of course, some people refute that it was built by slaves, because although the treatment is very high, the construction of the pyramids is not an easy task, and extremely dangerous, these pyramid builders were found because of years of overwork, they all have serious spinal problems, the average age is basically between 30-50 years old. Even with the high wages, it is likely that not many people would have been willing to work for the pharaohs, and only slaves who were not treated as human beings could have been qualified. But in that case, the treatment of 50-60 cattle and sheep was too high, and these slave owners would never have wasted this expensive food to feed their slaves.

I say that the possibility of the old specialized employment of artisans will be greater since, in ancient times, skilled craftsmen are endless like the ancient Chinese noblemen hired specialized craftsmen to build their tombs, especially the most famous tomb of Qin Shi Huang. The legend says that Qin Shi Huang, to his tomb, just ascended the throne has not yet unified the six kingdoms began to send people to build for themselves, when he sought out all the skilled craftsmen in the world, asking them to build a great tomb to match their temperament, so Qin Shi Huang's tomb is also known as the "Palace of the Earth", meaning the underground palace.

In addition, Qin Shi Huang was afraid that his tomb would be destroyed by tomb robbers, he deliberately ordered these artisans to build the tomb like a secret room, can only get in but not out, these artisans did not escape, after the construction of the tomb, these artisans can only quietly wait for their death. These craftsmen of the pyramids are more fortunate than the craftsmen of Qin Shi Huang's tomb, not only were they not suffocated in the pyramids, but they were granted permission by the pharaohs to be buried at the feet of the pharaohs. So it is very likely that the pyramids were built by artisans, not slaves. Who built the pyramids? The cluster of dwellings and the bones of cattle and sheep next to it indicates that it was not slaves.
