Giza
Pyramids and Sphinx
It
is the one and only wonder which does not require a description by early
historians and poets. It is the one and only wonder that does not need
speculations concerning its appearance, size, and shape. It is the oldest,
yet it is the only surviving of the Seven Ancient Wonders. It is the
Great Pyramid of Giza.
The
great pyramid is believed to have been built over a 20 year period.
The site was first prepared, and blocks of stone were transported and
placed. One theory involves the construction of a straight or spiral
ramp that was raised as the construction proceeded. This ramp, coated
with mud and water, eased the displacement of the blocks which were
pushed (or pulled) into place. A second theory suggests that the blocks
were placed using long levers with a short angled foot.
