pyramids

i was wondering that day how pyramids might have been built
most of the people said that they made huge cranes or machines equivalent to cranes to lift the stones
and place then in perfect symmetry
i feel this is sort of extremely difficult to do
instead Y couldn't they have have kept the first layer of stones and then instead of lifting the stones
above the height of the first layer just move the sand so that the ground level would rise in the form of a ramp where the stones of the second layer can be placed without any lifting
this can be precisely done to form the shape and keep the dimensions intact
ya if you are thinking that at the end of the construction the entire pyramid would be covered in sand
true
it would be but moving the sand again is simpler than lifting the stones
as it is they had generations of people working and unlimited funds to do it
or
they could have kept the pyramids buried as well
in many cultures the dead are buried may be the pyramid was also a giant underground tomb

  1. its possible!!!where did u read about dis possibility of lifting stones using sand??

    dis looks logical bcoz part of 6 degrees soil ramp of abt 1 mile length were found near gr8 temple of tanjore,built by gr8 king raju raja.elevation of ramp perfectly meets top of temple where a very
    huge granite block is located!!!!
