Abstract :
The following theory pretends to expose the
probable technique used by ancient Egyptians to lift and
rise at the height of 145 meters all blocks and
constructive elements that compound the pyramids of
the Giza plateau, specially the Khufu pyramid.
Two types of ramps are exposed in the work. The
model elaboration was made taking approximate
dimensions that have blocks that compound the
pyramids – more precisely, Khufu pyramid -, utilizing
geometric basic forms, physics-mathematical simple
reasoning and measures of common lengths to the epoch.
A suitable angle for the slope must be determined to
make possible annulling almost completely the action of
gravity force, to obtain a ramp that satisfies two
fundamental conditions:
I- Transform the moving blocks work to overcome only
the friction force when dragging them and not into
overcome the action of gravity force on them.
II- Facilitate move the blocks in a comfortable, safe and
fast way, making possible to accomplish complex
maneuvers with a minimum risk; even when its implies
traveling bigger distances and to transfer a bigger
number of elements that compose ramps and their talus.
The First type of ramps constitute the main part of
this work due it provides the effective technique to solve
the incognita of how were raised all constructive
components to reach the desired height of 146 meters
that had the Khufu pyramid in their splendor times. The
second type of ramps provides the technique to improve
to the maximum the existent relation between the
pyramid constructive process and the possibilities to
