Scientists close to unraveling the mysteries of moving stone blocks of the Egyptian pyramids
Moving giant blocks of stone from which were built the ancient Egyptian pyramids, the remains
a mystery to scientists-Egyptologists. To answer this question come from physics of the University of Amsterdam and the Foundation
of research on the matter.
The first thing that scientists have found stone blocks were transported in a special sledge on wet sand,
since the slide is much easier than dry. Moisture, in this case, is a kind of lubricant, which
naturally, facilitates the transport job.
To verify the correctness of the theory, in the laboratory, experiments were conducted with the model loaded sleigh
moved across the sand. It was found that a certain amount of water binds grains of sand together.
It's much easier to slide due to the fact that sand does not accumulate at the front of the skids.
Confirming his version scientists believe the ancient image of the person who is pouring water under the sledge runners.
Of the many different theories associated with moving large stones and statues in Ancient Egypt, this version is one of the most convincing. However, it is unlikely to be forced to give up their beliefs, adherents of the theory about the participation in the construction of the aliens from outer space.
