Legends and stories of ancient Egypt II

They are carved on the same stone, 3.5 meters high and weighing about 4 tons. One of them reflects the true face of Ramses II, and the other is a collection of Ramses II and Hera? The statue of Uhti is integrated. Ramses II was a famous Pharaoh in ancient Egypt 19 dynasty (about BC 1304-BC 1237).

The pyramids of Giza belong to the cultural relics of the ancient Egyptian kingdom (3200- 2270 BC), while Ramses II lived in the new Egyptian kingdom (1560-100 BC). Archaeologists believe that this important discovery may help people reveal more secrets in the pyramid area.

In recent ten years, a large number of tourists visited the pyramids, which led to the rising humidity and the increase of chemicals in the pyramids, which destroyed the firmness of the pyramids. In order to better protect this precious monument, the Egyptian government announced 1995 as the year of pyramid protection in April.

A huge project

The largest pyramid is the tomb of the fourth dynasty Pharaoh Khufu. It was built around 2700 BC. Tower height 146.5m is equivalent to a 40-story skyscraper. The tower foundation is square, each side is 230.6 meters long and covers an area of about 52,900 square meters.

The Great Pyramid consists of about 2.3 million stones of different sizes. The lightest stone is 1.5 tons, with an average weight of about 2.5 tons and a total weight of about 6.848 million tons. If it is loaded by a truck with a load of 7 tons, it needs 978286 vehicles. If these trucks are one after another, with a total length of 6,200 kilometers, they can't be loaded from Hainan Island in the south of China to Mohe River in the north, or from Pamirs in the west to Shanghai in the east. The dikes along the Yangtze River can swing from the upstream to the downstream Wusongkou.

The second largest pyramid, which is only 3 meters lower than the Great Pyramid, is the Harvard Pyramid, with a huge stone carving-the Sphinx. It is said that in 26 10 BC, when Hafra, the third Pharaoh of the fourth dynasty in Egypt, visited his soon-to-be-completed mausoleum, he found an abandoned boulder in the quarry, so he ordered the stonemason to carve a stone statue according to his face.

This stone statue is 22 meters high and 75 meters long. Are you wearing it? Nemes? Crown, forehead? Kubra? Sacred snake relief, more than five meters long beard hanging from the chin. Magnificent and mysterious.

1798, when Napoleon occupied Egypt, he ordered heavy artillery to bombard the Sphinx. As a result, the Sphinx did not move, only a few beards were blown off. Now it is kept in the British Museum. Napoleon had roughly estimated that a stone wall with a height of 3m and a thickness of 1 m could be built if the stones of the three adjacent pyramids of Khufu Havla Menkov were gathered together.

Where did so many stones come from? According to textual research, general stone materials may be taken from nearby places. 1 15000 pieces of white fine limestone for the outer layer are taken from Mukatam quarry on the east bank of the Nile; The granite inside the tomb was taken from Aswan, 500 miles away.

Quarrying, transporting, going down the river and going ashore require not only a large number of masons, construction workers, transport workers and sailors, but also a considerable number of engineers, construction workers and management personnel. An army with sufficient suppression capacity is also essential. Moreover, they have to eat, wear, live and consume.
