In 1977, a Japanese company volunteered to build a smaller version of the Great Pyramid on the Giza Plateau.
And with the use of building methods and technologies, which should have been guided by the architects of the time of the pharaohs.
A copy of Cheops should be a little over 10 meters high, the size of the base is 15 times smaller than the original. The size of the blocks should be from 1 to 3 tons, while the mass of some blocks of the Great Pyramid reaches 35 tons. The task looked, although unusual, but feasible, and the time for the construction of the pyramid was estimated at one month.
As a result, the entire construction process took a year. This is despite the fact that modern cranes and even a helicopter were used to install some parts of the structure.
After the completion of the pyramid, the project manager said that now they know how the pyramids were not built.
