The Joe Rogan Experience
#2321 - Dr. Zahi Hawass

Now, we come about building the pyramid. All the stones I told you came from Giza Plateau. We found out what happened first. They cut in the solid rock. And they made the base of the pyramid to be 28 feet on the solid rock. No stones. Do you get this? Yes. We have in Egypt 120 pyramids. We don't have only Kofu pyramid that everyone is talking about. You have 120 pyramids. This is one of them.

But the reason that this pyramid is so accurate and strong, because Giza Plateau is the only site in Egypt of the pyramids. It's a part of the Mokattam formation. It has three levels. level one and two are very, very stones. But level three is the top quality of the stones. Then the Egyptian uses stone to build the pyramid.

Only. Only the stones... The stones that came from outside are the casing stones. And I will talk about this later. That came from Torah. And the granite came from Aswan. And the casing stones were the outside smooth surface. Exactly. It came from Torah.

Then now when we discovered the quarry location and the base of the pyramid, we thought how they established the ramp. Okay. You know the ramp? To move the stones. We found out if the Egyptian will make the ramp from the quarry to the base, it will never happen. Because when you raise the base, you need to extend the ramp.

We found out, listen to this carefully, that the only way to have a permanent ramp is to come to the southwest corner of the main pyramid. They built the ramp like this. Okay. And I excavated, and these are photos in my book, Giza and the Pyramids. I excavated from here to here. When the Egyptians construct a ramp, when they finish building the pyramid, they demolish the ramp.

They cannot demolish all of it. They have to leave something in the ground.
