Documentary.
Jean-Pierre Houdin, Bob Brier.
When the ancient architects completed construction on the Great Pyramid at Giza, they left behind the greatest riddle of the engineering world. For centuries, adventurers and Egyptologists have crawled through every passageway and chamber, measuring and collecting data in an attempt to determine how it was built. Using cutting-edge 3-D software, see the incredibly accurate blueprints of the Great Pyramid.

Very interesting! submitted by Margaretta on July 25, 2011, 1:01pm Very interesting!

building greatness submitted by edbak on July 29, 2014, 10:06am An interesting look at a concept of how the great pyramid of Giza might have been built. While factually lacking it does provide food for thought.
