There are several ideas about how the Egyptians built the pyramids. The most accepted one is that they cut big limestone blocks with copper chisels and saws. Gangs of men dragged them to the pyramid site and pushed the first layer of stones into place. Next, they built long ramps of earth and brick to drag up the next layer of stones. They continued this process until they made it to the top. Finally, they covered the pyramid with an outer coating of white casing stones. They laid them so close together that it looked like the pyramid was cut out of a single white stone.
We may never know exactly how the Egyptians built the pyramids. But, these pyramids show that ancient people were intelligent and had great technical skills.
Did slaves really make pyramids? The answer is surprisingly, no. Because if slaves did make pyramids, they wouldn't have a grave that was dug. There's also some Egyptian pictograph in the grave that shows some people making bread, making food and most importantly, making the pyramid.
Aztec pyramids typically had a flat top where temples were located, while Egyptian pyramids had pointed tops. Additionally, Aztec pyramids were often constructed using adobe bricks and stones, while Egyptian pyramids were built with limestone blocks. The purpose of Aztec pyramids was mainly for religious ceremonies, while Egyptian pyramids served as tombs for pharaohs.
Slaves were likely not used to build the pyramids in ancient Egypt. Most evidence suggests that the pyramids were constructed by skilled Egyptian laborers, not slaves. These laborers were well-fed, had housing, and were respected members of the community, working in rotating shifts on a seasonal basis.
