a question older than the pyramids, how were the pyramids built?
dr. charles kos, incorrigible youtube mountebank, charlatan, and historian with a diploma. he thinks the pyramids were poured insitu as concrete! hundreds of videos on his youtube channel explaining this theory and others.
were the blocks cut from a cliff side carried to the giza plateau and somehow raised in place. or were they poured in place with a geopolymer concrete that seems to be natural stone.
i think neither of the above. i think they were made insitu using the pise de terre method. a damp mixture of soil and straw combined with urine are dumped in a wooden form and then tamped with a mallet to compress it. when it completely dries it is as hard as any stone or concrete and can resist the elements for millennia.
yes thats the answer to the question how were the pyramids built?, pise de terre.
