How Were the Pyramids Built !

The answer to this question is beyond
modern conjecture, so imperfect is our
understanding of the extent of the
mechanical knowledge of the ancients.
Their appliances are believed to have
been of the simplest order aud the i'm
plements exceedingly crude, and yet
they were able to convey these enormous
blocks of stone for vast distances over
routes most difficult; and, having ac-
complished this, to raise them to a great
height, and fit them in place without
the aid OF either cement or mortar to
cover up the errors of the stonecutter.
How all this was done is one of the
enigmas of modern science. 1t has been
generally believed that inclined planes
of earth were used to enable the work
men to raise the huge stones to their
places, the earth being cleared away
afterward. But it is possible that the
ancients had more extended knowledge
of mechanical powers than we usually
give them credit for, and that they made
use of the machinery very like that
employed by moderns for lifting great
weights Large cavities are found in
some of the stones in the Pyramids which
may have been worn by the foot of
derrick turning in them. That there
were enormous numbers o. men employed
in the building of these ancient structures
is well known. These results of their
great aggregated strength we see, but
they left no record of the means by which
this strength was focused and brought
most efectually to bear on their mighty
tasks. -Irade Supply NeloS.
