How do you think the boulders and stones to make a pyramid of Egypt were moved at such a height?
They were usually placed on sledges moved by gangs of slaves hauling on ropes woven from either palm fronds of papyrus reeds along a roadway probably laid with wooden planks. Oil or water was poured under the runners of the sledge to reduced friction The number of slaves depended on the size of the block. A two ton block, the average size of a block used on the Great Pyramid at Gizeh was dragged along by a gang of about twenty slaves.
A ramp was employed to get the stones to the working level wheter this was a straight ramp or one that spirraled around the sides of the pyramid is not clear.
