Feels like this is a little too convenient. They also go out of their way to laugh off lost civilizations at the end.
Cool they floated limestone to the site by boat…What about the granite? How were the stones then lifted and cut with such precision? A lot of unanswered pieces to the puzzle

This seems too convenient for their obviously incorrect narrative. They just happened upon documents which are just preserved enough to give an account detailing their own narrative which has glaring issues?Â
I want to see third party analysis of these documents before believing anything.Â

Even the comments on the other sub feel like some bot farm reply about how cool this discovery is and how it proves everything… just feels so manufactured.

For anyone wanting to actually read the document, here’s a translation.
Unsurprisingly, there is a lot of sensationalized reporting about the papyrus. It doesn’t reveal really anything at all about the actual pyramid construction, just transport of limestone to Giza. From the paper,
> there is no mention of the construction techniques that were employed, which are at present the object of passionate and contradictory debates. The aim of the narrator is much more modest and limits itself to the mission and activities of the team of which he is a member: the river transport of fine limestone blocks that are pulled to the bank in the region of Tura and then loaded onto cargo boats destined for the building site of the pyramid, where they are most probably but not exclusively used in the exterior cladding of the monument

Manufactured by Egyptian egyptoligist to press thier narrative. Because what they say goes and there’s no wiggle room outside of it unless passed through them. Pretty typical. Hoping the new age ones can slowly change this. What we know about the past is clearly wrong

Some of the inner chamber stone were 50 to. Now imagine the ship you would need today to transport such weight and draw your own conclusions to said narrative.
