An ancient papyrus sheds the mystery of building the Great Pyramid

The papyrus was among the documents described as the oldest papyrus in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. These 4500-year-old documents detail the steps of building the Great Pyramid in Giza, as well as the daily life of the workers. These documents were discovered four years ago Excavation led by the French Institute of Oriental Antiquities at the site of the archaeological valley valleys, located on the coast of the Red Sea, is the oldest known port in the world, and served as a main corridor of communication between the Nile Valley and the Red Sea. In 2013, during excavation, 300 pieces of papyrus were recovered from old boat-keeping facilities. Most of these documents are from the Fourth Dynasty (2613-2494 BC) and the fifth (2494-2345 BC), which is a bureaucratic accounting and records for the delivery of monthly food in various regions, including the Nile Delta. But the most interesting discovery is a personal record detailing the construction of the pyramid, making it the first written manual directly on this building that dazzled the world. According to archaeologists Pierre Tallet and Gregory Marouard, who led the team that discovered the papyrus, this papyrus was written in hieroglyphics by a man named Merer, who was in charge of and supervising a team of about 200 workers In a paper published in 2014, scientists explained that Merger used papyrus to write down the details of many of the processes related to the construction of the Great Pyramid of Giza and described the work in limestone quarries on the opposite bank of the Nile River. Tora near Cairo and by boat along the Nile River B, also said that in the twenty-seventh year of the reign of King Khufu was overseeing the construction of the Great Pyramid by order of the Minister (Ankhaf), a nephew of King Khufu Merger also said that thousands of workers transferred 170 thousand tons of limestone along the river The Nile, in wooden boats, was connected together by ropes, and 2.3 million blocks were pulled through a network of canals to an inner port only yards away from the base of the pyramid, thus allowing archaeologists to learn detailed information about the pyramid's history and a better understanding of how to build the pyramid The largest of which is currently 139 meters long (origin 147 meters). Egypt's archaeologist and archaeologist Mark Lehner also found a waterway lost centuries ago under the Great Pyramid. "We have identified the main canal basin, which we believe was the primary delivery area to the foot of the Giza plateau," he said. These new discoveries were screened at 8 pm on September 24, 2017 in Channel 4 on British television, through a documentary called Egypt's Great Pyramid: The New Evidence.
