Depends on the size of the pyramid but it always involved thousands. The ancient Greek historian and traveller Herodotus (c.450BC) was told by his guide that it took 100,000 slaves to build the Great Pyramid of Pharaoh Khufu.

It matters what size the pyramid was.wrong nobody knows but each of the pyramids get smaller. so i would have to say around 12,000 people.

Nobody knows for sure, and it differed from pyramid to pyramid.

Depends on the size of the pyramid. The ancient Greek historian and tourist Herodotus (c.450BC) was told that the Great Pyramid of Pharaoh Khufu took 100,000 workers and twenty years to build. Modern estimates put the figure at 10,000 to 20,000. Whether they were slaves or conscripted peasants is not clear. What do you think?

How long did they take to make a pyramid?

This is impossible to know, because it is not known how many men, and what engineering techniques were employed. It may have been 2,000 men or 20,000 men. It may have taken ten years or 80 years, or 150 years.


How long did it take to build the pyramids of Egypt and how many men were there?

It took 14-20 years, for 10,000 workers, a mixture of slaves and free men, to build the great pyramid of King Khufu. Perhaps the same number and time to build the second pyramid. The third Giza pyramid took about 15 years and about 5,000 workers. Smaller pyramids obviously took less time.
