Don't like to nitpick, but at the time they were built, the pyramids would have actually been bright white with limestone, with a metal alloy frustrum at the top.
The Great Pyramid is a marvel of engineering the likes of which cannot be replicated even today. I find it extremely difficult to believe that those same engineers and architects "didn't know about the wheel". Old Kingdom Egypt had an army and I'm pretty sure their chariots had WHEELS.
Why would you think we couldn't build something like that today? I mean we don't, but that's not because we can't. We make our largest buildings out of concrete and steel because they are much lighter, cheaper, and stronger. If we poured all of our resources into one project, we could make buildings several orders of magnitude larger with a much higher ratio of internal volume to materials used. As for wheels, they just probably weren't practical. I can see them using wooden rollers to mitigate friction while pulling the stones up the ramps but they'd never be able to make a cart strong enough to carry the blocks. They really only had two options for materials: stone and wood. Wood is weak and light, it isn't strong enough to make a cart to carry stone blocks in. Stone is strong and heavy, but you'd never be able to make a heavy-duty axle out of it (resists compression, not bending).
Wheels for heavy construction are not feasible unless you also have 2 things: paved/hard-pack roads + iron/steel - which the ancient Egyptians lacked. A wheel focuses all of the weight above into a narrow area while it and the axle must support the weight above. A wagon held together using leather straps - as coincidentally Tutankhamun's chariots are = would quickly fall apart with use. So heavy loads were transported via wooden sleds - examples found in museums and in tomb iconography - which were pulled by = teams of men and oxen......... As an aside. You do not see iconographic evidence of war chariots until the Hyksos period. It was the Hyksos who introduced the chariot to Egypt = and that was centuries *AFTER* the period of pyramid building. 🤨
Considering the fact that eastern Mesopotamia had wheeled vehicles as far back as 3000 BC that were built for and capable of carrying very heavy loads, it's possible. Since that would predate the creation of at least the great pyramid of Giza by about 4 centuries, it's just about guaranteed that they were aware of the technology. weather or not they used it is hard to say. Just because it wasn't documented, doesn't mean that it didn't happen. That said, historians can't say that they did use it either, because they would need some proof that they did. As far as comparing them to what we think when we say chariot, that isn't a fair caparison, because those were deliberately very lightweight, so they could maneuver quickly on a battlefield. The chariots that we know may be from after the time that they made these pyramids, but that doesn't mean that they necessarily didn't have other wheeled things before them. There is an abundance of footage of wheels working on sand, they just need to be sufficiently wide. There are many depictions of ancient wheels being made of chunks of wood that are wide enough, so using wheeled carts is a possibility. The main downside in my eyes of using the carts, would be the expense of outfitting thousands of workers with chunky carts made out of probably imported wood, when they could just make them work harder, or wait longer instead. It's a lot easier to make someone else work harder when you don't feel the pain and exhaustion yourself.
Pedro Sepulveda Yeah, and we all know the way to do that is to bomb towers in New York, creating reason for the US to strengthen their military further and allow them to plunder the middle East for oil. I sincerely hope that was a joke that went over my head.
Most blocks weighed around 2 tons. They had a production line going from the quarries on the Giza plateau to the pyramid, probably hundreds of blocks on the move at any one time with one going into place on site every few minutes. Hundreds of men were in the quarry at a time adding to the line. Stones coming on the Nile from Tura and Aswan were a minority.
I love your videos. It's always nice to see that there are other people just like me who love history. I watch you guys since you started on youtube but now i will start supporting you on patreon too and expect a high amount!
Damn true, their memory lived for millenniums, tombs glorifying their memory as centuries pass, but this time we're not talking about pharaohs, instead they were simple yet great builders.
1:26 The one with some of the casing stones left at the top is Khafre's. It's a few meters shorter than the great pyramid, but looks higher because it stands on slightly higher ground.
A hypothesis is that they may used sand and water. If you lay down a coat of sand on the ground and pour water on top of the sand, it becomes damp and very simple to slide big stone blocks. This hypothesis had some evidence that it may be true since there are cravings that show a hoard of people pulling a throne with one person pouring water on the ground.
1:27 doesn't show the "great pyramid (of Khufu/Cheops)" but the pyramid of Khafre. The "great" one, is next to it (with the Nile in the back, right of it).
It was a stupid human denying the ability of his ancestors, also that's why humans will never build pyramids, and now calling any triangular shaped hill as a pyramid..that's right china got dozens of these triangular shaped hills, but none of them is beautiful or real as the Egyptian and Mayan pyramids. P.s I don't deny the existence of aliens, they exist but somewhere else and didn't effect our life in any kind of way....keep your alien pyramid building thoughts to yourself, It is an old comment, yes..why I am replying? the thing is it shouldn't be left out like that.
You know, there's more gold floating in the asteroid belt than there is underground. Why would a group of aliens travel to our planet to build a pyramid and harvest gold?
Fenn ViktorVich, I am nit picking but, in this context, it's 'affect' not 'effect'... I am Russian but I have respect for the ubiquitous English language that most of the world's populace uses daily. As for this whole program, I do not have much in way of comment besides : Simple History, for Simple Minds... Human history is the grand tale of all of our lineages. It should be taken in as high a regard as the Sciences and Arts. The 'information' on display here is so dumbed down, (and in some parts, completely discredited) that's it's frankly, insulting. However, if you like your history like you like your fast food, then I digress
Hello, Simply History! I see you made this video, about one of the seven world wonders. Wouldn't it be nice if you made a series where you made video's about all the wonders? I would especially enjoy the hanging gardens of Babylon :)
If anyone wanted to know the pyramids where white because of limestone that covered it. However an earthquake happened which caused the limestone to break and was used by locals to mend damaged infrastructure.
Younger dryas event hit these structures over 12 thousand years ago. that's when they lost their casing stones. smooth and with Tunning Knobs, like the ones in macchu picchu.
This video incorrectly shows the pyramid of Khafre when talking about the Great Pyramid. The Great Pyramid does not have the remains of the limestone covering at the summit; that is Khafre’s pyramid which appears bigger than the Great Pyramid of Khufu because it has a steeper angle and is at a higher elevation. The Great Pyramid is actually taller and with greater volume.
I love your video so much!!! Because I love geography and history.But sadly there's no history of Indonesia but that's fine to me tho,Your quality video are very very good as well! 10/10 for me :).Oh yeah I like your video,you should do a Ancient Greece or dynasty of China or the rise of Mongol empire!

Hey, I'm getting back into history and learning more about it again! Just think about all the man power and effort that went into building these pyramids, and not just the physical skill, but also the design process as well, even before they had blueprints.
Cleopatra is closer in time to us than to the construction of the Great Pyramids - “that time”, the time of ancient Egypt, encompassed literally thousands of years. Would it surprise you that your grandfather didn’t have an iPhone, or that George Washington never flew in Air Force One?
@@jacobwiles547 lmao hahaha you have no arguments. Just admit that you ask yourself "wait a minute, how is this possible?" I dont understand why you deny something so obvious. You just sont want it to be true, even if you know that it is. It is about every theory that dosen't match up witch science.
Awesome video! Love your channel! Just a question, why do you use BC/AD (Before Christ/ Anno Domini) instead of BCE/CE (Before Common Era/Common Era) Although theirs not a whole lot of difference between the two, just give or take a few years.. It dosent bug me, just something i noticed!! Thanks for the awesome content!!
BC and AD to me are just simpler to use. More "normal" people understand those. I have had people get confused when I say BCE/CE. Some even think I'm talking about Star Wars (BBY Before Battle of Yavin)
True, heh they don't get it right, Ancient Egyptians are unique, not white, neither black, nor brown, but as time passed Egyptians bred with Nubians and the westerners and different kinds of people. Which in return changed the way they look and diversified it.
A BRIEF VISION ABOUT THE PYRAMIDS OF EGYPT I woke up on Dec. 31 2020 at about 5pm from a dream charged with meaning and lots of people present and even the divine presence. In it, I saw the completion of the pyramids of Egypt. The landscape was not desert as now but green vegetation. The people who built the pyramids were ancient saints to whom God had given specific instructions regarding the pattern, size positioning etc. The name or image of the particular builder was not highlighted. So I was like in the current state of the pyramids then I put my two hands together and there was a space (just try to put your two thumbs together and your two long fingers together and you form something like a triangle inside. It was something like that). It was inside this space that I saw something like a short movie that took me thousands of years ago during the construction of the pyramids. I saw that the biggest pyramid had a shiny golden cap and straight gold lines from bottom to top and at the edges. Then upon completion, the presence of God came literally and filled the pyramids in a spectacular way and the saints who built it were surprised and ran and hid themselves and we're watching the wonders of God from a distance. There was much light and glory and the golden cap shined and brightened a very long distance from the pyramids. Then as I walked to the ruinous state of the pyramid after seeing the wonders during and after it's construction, I saw that the presence of God was still around the pyramids. As I approached the biggest one, God (His presence) told me, "You don't belong here. You belong to one of the small pyramids." So I turned and went to the smaller pyramids and asked, "Which of you do I belong to? If I come near you and you are the one, give me a sign." At this point the dream turned into me and many people working on the field. We were like doing harvesting but not on a farm that had been cultivated. Much harvest was done. It was in the midst of this activity that the vision ended. The very stunning part of the vision is that it was of divine origins and that the divine presence is still there.
Great videos! Can you do a video on Newgrange (Brú na Bóinne) Megalithic passage tomb in Ireland? It was built around 3200 BC. There is also two other structures called Knowth and Dowth, and a recent find of more structures in the Boyne Valley area...
The Stones were pulled by the sand, someone in front pored water in front of the block and then the sand became wet and allowing the wooden sled to slide easily.
i like how some people say the methods are more complicted then the wheel mayby the wheel existed back then How would you know??? since they were wooden they would had rotted away
They relied on pottery to improve relations with Nubians, neighbors and people of Phoenicia, and was important product , and as we all know, pottery require pottery wheel, I am quite sure that but evolved for another kind of wheel with multiple uses, after the completion of pyramids, in the intermediate period, Hyksos came with chariots, that used wheels obviously, let's not mix these wheels with pottery wheels, but Ancient Egyptians were quite intelligent They possibly figured out a way to turn pottery wheels into multiple usage wheels.
I like your videos so dont get me wrong, I do however prefer if you'd upload 1-2 vids a month with a longer time length rather then one video every week with only 2-3 minutes in length.
I read somewhere that the pyramids were made out of shiny limestone that and that there reflected light was visible from space. However thr limestone eroded
The quarry was not nearby it was about 500 km from the construction site trust me they needed super power to build a thing like that even today its hard to do it .

100% correct.
True he forgot to add that, many nations and empires stole layers, Including the Romans, the Persians and the Arabs and many others.
Nice I was thinking that
@Robinson Pittman uh-
Also the great pyramid is the one on the far right. The one in the middle is actually the second tallest one.It was built by Khufu's heir Khafre.
Time for some Ancient Egyptian history, and yes there are many theories with the Pyramids!

Great videos! Can you do a video on Newgrange (Brú na Bóinne) Megalithic passage tomb in Ireland? It was built around 3200 BC.
There is also two other structures called Knowth and Dowth, and a recent find of more structures in the Boyne Valley area...
can you do some on the Spanish American war, the boer wars, or the wars throughout Asia?

+John Apitz we have
The Stones were pulled by the sand, someone in front pored water in front of the block and then the sand became wet and allowing the wooden sled to slide easily.
i like how some people say the methods are more complicted then the wheel
mayby the wheel existed back then How would you know??? since they were wooden they would had rotted away
They relied on pottery to improve relations with Nubians, neighbors and people of Phoenicia, and was important product , and as we all know, pottery require pottery wheel, I am quite sure that but evolved for another kind of wheel with multiple uses, after the completion of pyramids, in the intermediate period, Hyksos came with chariots, that used wheels obviously, let's not mix these wheels with pottery wheels, but Ancient Egyptians were quite intelligent They possibly figured out a way to turn pottery wheels into multiple usage wheels.
I like your videos so dont get me wrong, I do however prefer if you'd upload 1-2 vids a month with a longer time length rather then one video every week with only 2-3 minutes in length.
+Xragon not going to do that sorry
I read somewhere that the pyramids were made out of shiny limestone that and that there reflected light was visible from space. However thr limestone eroded
You should of talked about the mysteries of the pyramids
I still get wowed when I hear that it took over 20 years to make it
The quarry was not nearby it was about 500 km from the construction site trust me they needed super power to build a thing like that even today its hard to do it .
The one in the middle isn’t the Great Pyramid.
It’s like the people that built the pyramids are just as advanced as us only lacking the creation of electricity
can you make a video about the independence of Finland? Its Finlands 100th birthday this year
Egypt is 7000 years old
