The answer to how long did it take to build the great pyramid in Giza is exactly 20 years from the research i did with approximately 100,000 men involved in construction. Construction was completed in 2,560 BC over 4,500 years ago.
hi The three great pyramids at Giza were built over a period of 80 years. The great pyramid of Khufu for examle took 20 years.
Well it was the Great Pyramid of Giza which took 20 years to build
Approx 3,880 years.
About 14 to 20 years
He built the largest pyramid. Egypt has one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the only one still standing.
about 20 years
It is estimated that it took a period of about 80 years.
Pyramid building in ancient Egypt lasted from 2650BC to the time of the new kingdom c.1550BC. The greatest pyramid period was in the 4th dynasty (2613-2498BC) when the three pyramids (including the red pyramid, the first true pyramid) built by Snefru and the three great pyramids at Giza were built. Included in the Giza group is the Great Pyramid of Khufu (reigned 2589-66BC) the biggest and most accurately built of them all. The Great Pyramid remained the tallest structure in the world until it was surpassed by the spire of Lincoln Cathedral in the 14th century. The spire of Lincoln cathedral is long gone the earliest surviving structure today at 900ft is the Eiffel Tower built in 1889.
Most estimates of Moses' birth range from about 1600 BC to about 1400 BC, well after the height of the pyramid-building age in Egypt (around 2600-2150 BC). Even using the earlier estimate, by the time Moses was born the Great Pyramid at Giza was hundreds of years older than the Cathedral of Notre Dame is today.

well my studies show that in the pyramid of giza there are about 550,000,000 blocks and to some it may seem to much and to some a little to less but if im right the blocks do not stick to too little or too much blocks. sounds nonsense? i thought so to but actually its a hot climate in egypt so they have to spread out the building throughout about 3-4 years.
The tallest building I know of is the big brown apartment building in St. George . You can see it from all of Richmond Terrace and most of Bay Street. I counted 19 floors on it making it an estimated 215ft(65m).
Estimates vary from 14 to 20 years
The Pyramid of Khufu also known as The Great Pyramid of Giza and the Pyramid of Cheops [his Greek name] The Pyramid of Khafre is also known as the centre pyramid. The Pyramid of Menkaure is the smallest one of these fascinating buildings. There were built by these pharaohs as their tombs. they were built right when they started in kingdom because it took a long time to finish, so by the time they died, they had a pyramid ready for him/her.
