Does anybody ever read complete sentences anymore?
Does the term "on the backs of slaves" have no secondary message buried within it?
Did you know that the first recorded labor strike was during the building of a pyramid?
And that the reason was "garlic rations".
p.s. The primitive "trundle wheel" is still used today to measure exact distances.
Water in a square tub is still used to measure horizontal.
It has now been replaced by the enclosed "airbubble" in spirit level.
Most tools we have today are merely refinements on some very fundamental principles.

It is a matter of degree. There is never only this or only that . I am sure both slaves and seasonal unemployed workers were used as they are today for major infrastructure projects.
Judging by recent history, slaves make for cheap labor of physically demanding jobs. All great labour intensive infrastructures in the US were made on the backs of slaves.
Were Egyptians then more civilized than modern man was a few decades ago and still today in the great modern works in the Middle East.
Skilled labour is expensive. Paying high wages for 30 years to tens of thousands of physical laborers to build a single pyramid would not be very cost effective. In that respect, nothing has changed much in a few millenia.
MODERN SLAVERY: A HIDDEN, EVERYDAY PROBLEM.
Isn't it interesting that Egypt is not mentioned in this list?

Stop hijacking threads.
Why can't you start your own thread instead of hijacking others?

There it is . Close the thread. It got 1 like. Hooray! Standing ovation!
Is that what you can offer to the OP question? Give me a break .
Citing slavery as having been a big part of these enormous works is perfectly appropriate.
Three important documents in chronological order are, firstly, circa 2700 BC Pharaoh Sneferu's "Palermo Stone" where we read forty ship loads of timber, imported from Lebanon, for temple building. Translate "temple" to "Pyramid" and the timber was required for the construction process.
Secondly, circa 590 BC priest and scribe Ezekiel records statements made by the ancestors of Hebrew Pyramid builders who speak of wooden" wheels within wheels" machines having four rims that were high and awesome, with eyes all around.
Thirdly, circa 450 BC Herodotus walks around The Great Pyramid and inquires as to how it was built. Priests informed Herodotus that machines formed of short wooden planks were used to raise Pyramid blocks tier by tier.
The simple step-walking machines are now understood as "four-lobe pinion-pulleys" and operated innately with a mechanical advantage of 2.8 (MA=2.8) which means a 2500kg Pyramid block requires an input effort of 900kg to raise it. The machines operated independently on all four sides of the Pyramid, progressively using the Pyramid to build the Pyramid to final completion. White Tura limestone facing blocks were hoisted and installed from top to bottom. These three documents exist and provide congruency of evidence of the ancient Egyptian four-lobe pinion-pulleys which are the earliest known prototype of "rack and pinion" mechanical engineering technology.

This.
This makes sense to me. It also explains the presence of the "Petrie rockers". I assume you have compared the size of the rockers to the size of the stones.
gmilam, all "Petrie rockers" found are small flimsy tomb models for use in the "after-life", or have been hidden in safe places. Real "rockers" surround their load, so deduction is necessary, and logically straight forward to determine "rocker" length. The majority of Giza Pyramid blocks are limestone cubes of approximately one metre side length, thus real "rockers" would need to be one metre long, and of course extremely robust.
Here is an information update for year 2025 ...
What follows has been known since 2006 via university research, however only Pravda in Moscow published the article titled "The Documented Ancient Construction Method of The Great Pyramid". Pravda placed the article on the London Global News Exchange in 2019 where it was ignored, or perhaps avoided.
Consider the movement of blocks in two ways ... Consecutively or Simultaneously and knowing the documented time-frame for the Great Pyramid is 20 years. Logistics of Engineering can only accommodate the SIMULTANEOUS movement of blocks which absolutely rules out consecutive and thus rules out ALL ramp and water shaft-canal theories.
The method used is known today as Rack & Pinion Mechanical Technology and the Egyptians developed its prototype at Giza. Those hundreds of limestone steps you observe for all Giza Pyramids are RACKS, over all four sides and height.
Inty Shedu was the carpenter in chief at Giza and fabricated LOBES made from short planks of Cedar which had been imported from Lebanon as we know via the "Palermo Stone". Evidence for the "four lobe pinion pulley" is the "Petrie rocker" excavated in 1895 by Edouard Neville and handed to Petrie in person for his London museum.
The Shedu four-lobe pinion-pulley is a machine of Class Two Lever Principle, Pivot-Load-Effort, same as a forward wheel, wheel-barrow, and has a mechanical advantage of 2.8 (MA=2.8) which means a 2500 kg Pyramid block can be raised with an input effort of 900 kg. Search haitheory

The engineering logistics of CONSECUTIVE traffic of blocks raised within the documented twenty year time-frame rules out ALL ramp and water-shaft canal theories which all have "one block follows another' illogical approach. Blocks were moved SIMULTANEOUSLY over all those STEPS you see of all Giza Pyramids. Four-lobe pinion-pulleys were used on and over ALL available horizontal STEP surface area. Hoist one block per hour over an eight hour day. Forty pulleys, ten per side, raise 320 blocks.
Over a year, 365 days 116,800 blocks are raised. Over Twenty years 2,336,000 blocks have been raised. The method is known in our modern world as Rack and Pinion mechanical engineering. Those hundreds of limestone STEPS can be termed RACKS. The Pinions were fabricated from imported Lebanese Cedar timber under the supervision of Chief Carpenter Inty Shedu who was entombed on the Giza Plateau. Inty Shedu's four tomb statues are exhibited in the Cairo museum. The Shedu Four-Lobe Pinion-Pulley has an innate mechanical advantage of 2.8 (MA=2.8) which means a 2500kg Pyramid block is raised with an input effort of 900kg.

How were the pyramids at Giza constructed?
Ask anyone how Giza Pyramids were constructed and most people will respond by talking about ramps. Most websites dealing with Giza Pyramids construction promote various ramp theories and many people, including mass news media are very persuasive. The single long ramp theory attributed to Pharaoh...
