The ancient Egyptians used a combination of skilled labor, ingenious engineering, and simple tools to stack blocks on pyramids. Large limestone and granite blocks were quarried, transported using sledges, and sometimes lubricated with water to reduce friction. Workers employed ramps made of mudbrick, limestone chippings, or earth to elevate the stones as the pyramid rose. This method allowed them to precisely position each block, forming the massive structures we see today.

How did the Maya's carry and stack stones pyramids?
Around 170 people were needed to help the Mayan's build their pyramids. They used a long ramp to lift the stones to the heights needed for the pyramids. The stone blocks were mounted and rolled onto wooden pallets instead of dragged through the sand.

The pyramids where built of large blocks of limestone.
Can a stack a triangular pyramid?
Yes, a stack of triangular pyramids can be formed, as they can be arranged in a stable manner. When stacking, the base of each pyramid must rest on a stable surface, and the pyramids can be positioned to ensure that they do not topple over. However, the stability of the stack depends on the size and weight distribution of the pyramids. Careful consideration of placement and balance is essential for a successful stack.

What are blocks and why aren't they part of pyramids today?
Blocks are individual pieces of stone or other materials that are used in construction. Pyramids were built using blocks in ancient times because it was the most practical method available at the time. Today, modern construction techniques such as concrete pouring and prefabrication have replaced the need for individual blocks in pyramid construction.
How many blocks were used for pyramids?
none
