Ancient Egyptian pyramids, such as the Pyramids of Giza, have always been shrouded in mystery and mysticism. For a long time it was believed that these massive structures, which were the tombs of the Egyptian pharaohs, were built by a huge force of slaves. However, more and more research and expert opinions now confirm the theory that the builders of the pyramids were not just slaves, but highly skilled artists and professionals.
Archaeological discoveries in recent and ancient years Egypt Detailed analyzes of the writings show that masons were at a much higher professional level than previously thought. Dr. Zahi Hawass, former head of the Egyptian Archaeological Research Institute, asserts that ancient Egyptian society was highly developed and well-organized, which is why building the pyramids probably required a more complex and specialized workforce.
According to more recent theories, the builders of the pyramids were not just slaves, but were skilled builders, architects and engineers who possessed specific skills. The Egyptians managed to accumulate a lot of experience over decades, and constructions could be created in special workshops.
