Archeologists already know the ways Ancient Egyptians used to transport massive stone blocks from the country's south to the site in the north where the Great Pyramids of Giza were built, respected Egyptian archeologist and former Minister of Antiquities Affairs Zahi Hawass said, debunking recent media claims about a sensational new discovery.
Earlier this week, the Daily Mail reported that a group of archeologists had uncovered the secret of the construction of the Great Pyramids with the help of an ancient papyrus. The ancient document, recently found in the seaport of Wadi Al-Jarf, was said to have offered important new details on how the Egyptians were able to transport the 2.5 ton blocks over 800 kilometers from Aswan in southern Egypt to Giza in the north over 4,600 years ago. The papyrus explained that the transportation of the heavy limestone and granite blocks was carried out with the help of special boats and special-purpose channels and canals.
