British engineer dubbed Indiana James has stunned archaeologists by claiming their theories on how pyramids were built are wrong.
Peter James said he believes ancient Egyptians formed the structures by piling up rubble on the inside and attaching bricks later.
His shock claim challenges hundreds of years of accepted belief that the pyramids were built with giant blocks carried up huge ramps.
The structural engineer reckons that would be impossible as the ramps would have had to have been at least a quarter of a mile long to get the right angle for the bricks to be taken to such great heights.

.. ..

- I think he is right.

A story of this magnitude peaks one's interest as well as our imaginations! I enjoyed the arcticle, and agree "Indiana Jones" (Peter James) may very well be on to something.:cool: This also gives me pause to reflect upon how the number of seconds it takes my computer to start up doesn't seem all that important at the moment!:rolleyes::p:D

Some things dont need to be questioned.They are a marvellous testiment to mankinds creative and engineering ability and how they were built will simply remain unknown.

We dont NEED to know as it does not change anything.This is a one of many questions which should simply remain unknown.its like asking how the earth and the other planets came into existence.

Lets just enjoy the sights without questioning how they came about.
