(JERUSALEM POST) -- Jews cannot claim that their ancestors, the Israelite slaves in Egypt, built the Great Pyramids on the western bank of the Nile River that have fascinated mankind for four millennia. They did perform construction work for the Egyptians during their four centuries of bondage and likely built cities and storehouses in the vast empire.
But how did Egyptian architects move more than two million granite and limestone blocks, each weighing at least two tons, from the banks of the Nile to the Giza plateau, where the pyramids are located some eight kilometers away?
They could not have rolled them over lumber; this would have been too exhausting. Scientists have hypothesized that they sent them over a channel or river, but there is no such body of water connecting the Nile and Giza.
