In the current century, many opinions have surfaced that have changed the questioning of how these magnificent creations were built. During scientific research in the recent decades, evidence has arrived that challenges alternate theories of how the pyramids were constructed. The results include the discovery of new chemical compounds found in the stone of the temples that lead to an entirely different approach of how the pyramids were built. The theory that will be further discussed in this document is perhaps the most loathed among archeologists. It depicts that the pyramids were built by pouring one of the earliest types of cement cast from synthetic material …show more content…
They are certainly more mysterious than some admit to believe. Like the pyramids, their individual stone blocks have their own characteristics. These details also support the theory that the pyramids were poured and not quarried. The measured density of the stone blocks found in the pyramids is not similar to the stone that is found in quarries. Quarry blocks often contain cracks filled with calcite, however the pyramids blocks do not. It is also common that fossil shells are layered horizontally within quarried stone, but within the pyramid blocks they are scattered throughout. These details are the differentiation between the stone used in the pyramids and the quarried stone that is commonly believed to have been used in the construction of the pyramids.
It is believed that all the stones in the pyramids are identical. In fact, the stones are so identical, there is hardly any distance between them. To this day, there has not been any discovery of ancient tools that were capable of carving the quarried stone so precisely. The nearest logical conclusion is that the pyramids were made out of a flexible material, most likely the cement that was described earlier in this
