Great Pyramid Mystery ‘Solved’

A French architect,Jean-Pierre Houdin,claims to have been able to find the mystery behind Egypt’s Great Pyramid.He said that the 4,500-year-old pyramid which is just outside Cairo was built using an inner ramp to lift the massive stones into place.”This is better than the other theories, because it is the only theory that works,” said Mr Houdin.He also added that the outer ramp all the way to the top of the pyramid would have blocked sight lines and left little room to work, while a long, frontal ramp would have used up too much stone.
