King Khufu and Cheops pyramid



Egyptian King Khufu (Cheops in Greek designation) is remembered for the construction of giant pyramids in Giza, the tomb apparently constructed reserved. When birth and death no titimangsanya, but he is generally considered to live in the twenty-sixth century BC. What we know its capital at Memphis, Egypt, and he sat on the throne for a long time, but the lives of others few terungkap.Tampaknya safe when we say that a giant pyramid is a pyramid both the most famous and is an amazing building ever built man. Even in ancient times he was considered one of the seven wonders of the world. Although six others have become a mess of rubble, a giant pyramid remains firmly upright, a stunning memories for the king, who membuatnya.Kesempurnaan construction and out of habit really impressive size. Although the leg at the very top has been destroyed, its height was reached 450 feet, roughly the same height as a 35 story building! Roughly 2.3 million stone blocks, each block weighing about 2.5 tonnes used for the pyramid. Because it's got a giant pyramid device inside rooms and hallways, the stone used consists of a large variety of sizes, adding intricate manufacturing employment.
Somehow Egyptians working in the forty-six centuries ago without modern equipment or machinery, but nonetheless able to make such building, really dark! Actually building it requires very careful planning and administrative ability is perfect to explore the national resource for the success of an enormous range of tasks so. If we agree on the general presumption that the incident took twenty years, we have to imagine themselves no less than approximately 300 blocks of stone arranged daily. Obviously, to form the blocks that much preparation and transport it to the pyramid, cut according to the size exactly as required and put it in proper position, really a duty "crazy." All ships should be deployed to transport stone blocks, and supply planning system is needed to feed the "army of labor" involved in the project.
Giant pyramid that has survived for 4500 years straight, and probably still stay upright like that although modern buildings have long building was falling apart so debris and ash. Building pyramids was truly indestructible! Even if an atomic bomb hit right to him, he will not be erased. Sure, bit by bit. he will be subverted era. However, until now, the levels of erosion is allowed to survive until more than a million years.

It is therefore apparent, Cheops as the person who left a great legacy for the world, has gained enduring fame, notoriety may overcome anyone who has ever lived on the earth's surface. (Could Napoleon or Alexander the Great was remembered though only 10,000 years from now?). But, fame is much different from the so-called "influence". Although Cheops had an influence on the Egyptians who lived in his time, he did not have any influence both the outside world and the decades afterward.
